Charles Bell March 06, 2020 for Model Number fghs2655keo The panel in front of freezer door is showing 0 degree, then it will start climbing up in temp. after a time it will start coming back down to the starting 0 degree. Had a new central board put in, no help can you give me some ideal what is wrong. Thanks Charles
1 Answer Charles, Test the sensors in the unit to make sure that they are good. Also, if this is happening when the unit goes through the defrost cycle then this may be what is causing the unit to warm up which would not be abnormal except in instances when it is staying in defrost for too long. in this case, the thermistors or the main board would be the cause.

Bushmin April 08, 2018 for Model Number frigidaire refrigerator fghb2844lfe I have no power to lights, display or compressor on refrigerator. I've opened the control board (242115239) and have power to J1 (Black to Light Blue) but I'm not able to find any power elsewhere on the board. Is there a way to test the control board? We had a power outage 2 days ago, which might be the cause. Just trying to verify before ordering a new board.
1 Answer Bushmin, If there is no power from the main control board to any other components but there is power at the control board then this would be a faulty control board. All you can do is test power in and power out. Read More...
Mike R March 20, 2016 for Model Number FGHB2844LF5 I get an error code SY CF on display. No power, no cooling, just the fan running.
1 Answer Mike, With the SY CF error code, this is a Communication failure after power up. You will want to check the wiring between the Main control board and the User interface. If the wiring checks ok then replace the user interface board and if the problem still exist replace the main control board. The User interface board is part number 241973711 and the main board is 242115239. Read More...
1 Answer Hello R. The main power board is located under the bottom of the unit. Remove the grille to access it. Read More...
Ed August 19, 2015 for Model Number FGHB2844LEG Had both sy ef and a shorted freezer thermistor. Pulled out control board and found it was full of water. There was no water on floor nor was it wet anywhere else. The foam gasket around the plastic tray which the board sits in was wet. Where did the water come from? Do I drill a small hole on the tray to drain water from the tray?
1 Answer Hello Ed. You will need to replace the board. As for the water, it sounds like the drain is clogged and will need to be cleaned out.

Jim March 09, 2015 for Model Number EW23BC71IS8 I had a ice mold failure. Replaced ice maker complete #243297606. Ice maker will not fill with water. I have water to door, and water is produced when doing ice maker diagnostic 55c. Upon entering ice maker test mode the manual says 48C or 40C (depending on model) should be displayed in right window. It does not. -26F in left and 52C in right. Next test using + is 55c and it produces approx. 1/4 cup of water, next is 57C evaporator fan activates using on/off, next 58C ice level, Er in left window ( with both old and new assembly). next 63C in right, 3 in left. I have checked for loose connections and broken wires and found none. Door seals are all tight. Freezer temp. is -4 verified with a thermometer. I also removed cover to coils and found no ice build up. I'm now bald from pulling hair out. Any suggestions?
1 Answer Hello Jim, If connections to the new icemaker are good and the fill tube is not frozen up, you may need to consider replacing the new icemaker assembly 243297613. It is a commonly known fact that a new part can be defective, since they are manmade. There is also the possibility of a water valve 242252702 failure. Read More...
Scott June 21, 2014 for Model Number fghb2844lm5 Fridge has sy cf on display. Found a broken wire in a small white sensor that comes out of the ice maker. Would this cause the problem. Also no lights come on when you open the doors. Do you think it might be the control board. Also unplugged the ice maker, unplugged fridge and still get sy cf. Thanks Scott
1 Answer Scott, The SY CF is a communication failure after power up. Check wiring between Main Control Board and User Interface Board. Replace User Interface Board. If problem still exist, replace Main Control Board. Read More...
Marty January 01, 2014 for Model Number FGHB2844LF5 RE: Frigidaire. Water and Ice dispensers are in-operative. I have water in the lines on the back of the unit. When disconnected, water flows freely. No water comes to dispenser or ice maker though. No power at the solenoid in rear of unit. Could I need a new mother board? Your thoughts please.
1 Answer Marty, With both the ice and water not working and not getting power at the valve when you push the dispenser lever or when it calls for ice then the issue would most likely be the main control board. Read More...
