Tyler M Kaukauna , WI January 24, 2017 Appliance: Model 253.28052800 Freezer would not get colder than 15 degrees I checked to make sure the evaporator coils did not have an ice build up. The compressor seemed to run normal and was not running constantly. My freezer has a high temp alarm that is supposed to go off at 23 degrees, but it never went off at temperatures above that.

Randy B Baytown , TX August 09, 2015 Appliance: Model FRIGIDAIRE FFH17F7HWC Freezer won't come back on after cycling off There was not much information on the internet about my model of Freezer. So I left a post on APP's Repair Forum. I got an answer from a Technician who suggested replacing the Control Board and the Thermistor. I replaced the Control board only and the freezer is working fine. I ordered the parts from APP and am 100% satisfied with my ordering experience. The part was delivered ahead of promised time and was a perfect fit.
