Kali for Model Number FPHI2187KR0 My freezer top refrigerator, which is 4-5 years old is no longer freezing foods. Cold air is blowing so fan is working but it is insufficient to freeze foods. I notice that the air blowing out of the bottom of the unit is cool as well.
Answer Kali, When the refrigerator starts to cool, do you hear a louder than usual click noise or perhaps a humming noise ? The air blowing out the bottom of the refrigerator should be pretty warm/hot. The cooler air would indicate the compressor isn't running or the condenser coil isn't transferring the heat from the coil to the room air. You'll need to move the refrigerator out, to get behind it, remove power to the refrigerator, check and clean the condenser coils, and area as well as the compressor area then plug the cord into the outlet and check and listen to see if the compressor starts and runs. If you hear a louder click, or hum from the compressor, then replace the start device. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, February 13, 2017
