Jerry November 05, 2021 for Model Number FGHS2631PE4A Hello. Problem with evaporator coil freezing up. Will not auto-defrost, but will defrost if I force-defrost with control panel. Does the main power board control the defrost timing? If so, is part number 5304497976 correct? Thanks for your time.
1 Answer Jerry, Thanks for the question!!! Yes, the mainboard controls the defrost cycle. 5304497976 is the correct part number. Read More...
Steven March 13, 2021 for Model Number FGHS2631PF3 Freezer was making a loud noise, found ice build up around Evaporator fan. So I replaced the fan and defrost sensor. Now when the compressor tries to start the fan go on and off, then the code SY FE back on and fan not running. What Next?
1 Answer Steven, Since SY EF indicates an evaporator fan circuit failure and you've already replaced the evaporator fan motor, check the wiring between the evaporator fan and control board. Check for 12VDC to fan between red and brown wires. Check for variant voltage (depending on high or low speed) between yellow and brown. Test the sensor. Read More...
Martin September 06, 2020 for Model Number FGHS2631PF4A Temperature in freezer and refrigerator are going up and down. It started as just the refrigerator temp going up and down. Now all the sudden, both are fluctuating. ???
1 Answer Martin, You should verify if the actual temps inside the unit are changing or only changing on the display.We will send you a tech sheet to enter service mode and tests 29 and 30 check the thermistors in both sections. These thermistors read the temp and send that info to the main control and then to the display. Read More...
Arthur July 06, 2020 for Model Number 5304497976 Temperature control keeps fluctuating. What is the cause?
1 Answer Arthur, the main control board is a good guess, but you may want to start by checking the doors and door gaskets, make sure the doors close and seal properly, Then check the evaporator fan motor 809069220 Motor to make sure it is running consistently(DCV fan motors can run slow or intermittently) and not circulating the air properly. Then check the auto-damper 241853801 Damper to make sure it opens and closes properly and doesn't affect the airflow. If all's OK then replace the control board. Read More...
Roger June 26, 2020 for Model Number FGHS2631PF4A The model number is for a side by side Frigidaire refrigerator. the light above the cold water/ice exit on the outside of the freezer door is not working properly. For example we normally have it set at 37 degrees but the light now shows the figure 77 degrees because two small sections on the number 3 no longer light up. The inside temp is still around 37-38 degrees so its not actually 77 degrees. Can this small display led be replaced?
1 Answer Roger, With some segments not working, this would be a faulty user interface board part number 5304527931. Read More...
Pat February 07, 2020 for Model Number FGHS2631PF3 The temperature in the refrigerator is fluctuating from the mid 40's down to the low 30's. Freezer temp holds solid at the set temperature. I've replaced the thermocouple in the fridge section, but no improvement. Any ideas on the next thing to try?? Control Board??
1 Answer Pat, based on the information provided, it would certainly be likely that the main control 5304497976 would be the issue as long as the damper is opening and closing fully. Read More...
Greg January 30, 2020 for Model Number FGHS2631PF4A I had a tech come is and check out my Frigidaire Gallery and he said the control board was bad. I find the part on your site and replaced it without any problem. It works great, but I realize the tech didn't replace the screw that holds up the tray to the bottom when he left. Could you give me the size of the screw and where can I find it?
1 Answer Hello Greg, there is no screw listed for that however you can use 5304455650, or locally purchase a hex head sheet metal screw #8 and 5/8 " long. Read More...
Albert November 19, 2017 for Model Number Fgfh2631-pf3 Does this refrigerator has a defrost timer?because there's an ice build up and it keeps coming back
1 Answer Hello Albert, the model number supplied does not come up as valid. The closest match to the model number provided is FGHS2631PF3 and that unit used part number 5304497976 to control the defrost cycle. Thanks! Read More...
Jim August 23, 2017 for Model Number FGHS2631PF4A Where is this part located in the refrigerator? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Jim, Open both door to the unit and remove the kickplate. Under the unit you will see a black box with a single screw in the center front holding it against the bottom of the cabinet. Remove this screw and slide it out and you have the main power board in your hand. Read More...
