Brian March 06, 2021 for Model Number FGHN2844LF5 About a week ago my fridge warmed up to about 57 degrees. Freezer was fine. I cleaned the coils and in 24 hours the fridge was back down to 37 degrees. Last night the fridge was back up to 57 degrees. This morning its running and trying to cool. I can feel cold air coming thru the vents in the fridge. I haven't noticed any frost build up on the back wall of the freezer. Any ideas? Thanks.
1 Answer Brian, With the freezer keeping good temps chances are there is an issue with the damper opening or the thermister is telling the control the temps are good and not to open the damper. Check the resistance of the thermistor.If temps are 57 the thermistor will read about 16.5k and if temps are 38 the resistance will be 27.5k. 240597220 is the thermistor but if these readings are good then replace the damper. 5303918899 Read More...
Tim April 25, 2019 for Model Number LGHN2844MF0 Ref. not cooling. No codes being given. Condenser fan running, comp. running, neither evp. fan running. Ref. interior light will not go off after shutting the door, frezzer light works. Is this a possible bad control board located underneath or control board in door? The inverter board would not cause this kind of problems?
1 Answer Tim, The inverter board would not cause this issue and this would most likely be caused by a door switch type of issue. The refrigerator compartment has magnetic door switches that one may have failed and would need replaced. Read More...
Jan February 28, 2019 for Model Number lghn2844mfo Lights in refrigerator won't turn off. ont turn off
1 Answer Jan, For this issue, the light should operate on via a sensor on the control panel that is on the side of the door. This membrane would be the most likely cause for this issue. Read More...
Ben December 04, 2018 for Model Number Frigidaire LGHN2844MFO Error code "sy ef". Evaporator fan runs when I put 12V across Red and Brown wires while giving Yellow Wire 12V as well. Continuity confirmed for all wires from fan plug on harness to plugs at control board. With all connected, have confirmed 12 V across R/W and B/W at control board. B/W seems to be holding steady 5.4V. Y/W sits at around 0.5V and then occasionally rises to 1.5-2.0V and settles back to 0.5V. Fan does not turn and "sy ef" code returns. Is this likely control board or the fan motor (ie, should fan spin with 2V on Y/W or should board be putting out higher voltage on that terminal?) Thanks!
1 Answer Ben, For this issue the control board would likely be the cause for this issue. Read More...
Dan February 26, 2018 for Model Number LGHN2844MF0 Gallery I have a Frigidaire Gallery LGHN2844MF0. The evaporator is freezing solid after about 24 hours. I replaced the defrost thermostat and measured 26 ohms across the defrost element. In diagnostic mode test 2 produces the code JF_t401H after pressing power. Anything else I should check before replacing the control board?
1 Answer Dan, With the defrost thermostat and the heater being good, this will be a issue with the control board. Read More...
Gabe September 12, 2017 for Model Number fghn2844lp3 I have the error SY EF and the refrigerator portion was not cooling. I pulled the inside back panel of the freezer off and noticed ice in the evaporator coils. I also noticed the defrost thermostat appears to be damaged. When I unplug the fridge and plug it back in, the evaporator fan will spin for a couple of seconds, stop for a little while, then spin again for a couple of seconds and stop again. I replaced the evap fan motor and it does the same thing still and still give the SY EF code. Would it be the main control board, just the defrost thermostat, or something else? Thank you in advance.
1 Answer Gabe, For this issue with the evaporator fan having already been replaced, this would be a faulty main control board on the unit. Read More...
Khai June 08, 2017 for Model Number FGHN2844LF8 I like to purchase the main control board, but not so sure it will fix the problem. My compressor not running and I replaced the inverter on compressor and it still not run. The output from the main board to inverter is 9 volt DC. If I purchase this main board would it fix the problem
1 Answer Khai, Yes replacing the main control board should correct the issue with the compressor not running. Read More...
Craig H. January 21, 2017 for Model Number LGHN2844MFO I have a Frigidaire Model LGHN2844MFO that has a SY EF error code. The fresh food section is not cooling much. The evaporator fan runs smoothly. Is this a control board issue?
1 Answer Hello Craig, This is the fault code for the evaporator fan motor circuit. This can be the fan motor 809069220, the main control 5303918506, or the harness between the two parts. Read More...
Mark March 25, 2016 for Model Number FPHG2399PF1 My display is showing that my Fridge is -35 deg while the freezer is displaying the correct temperature. I have changed the FF thermistor and I'm still getting the same display. Do I need to replace the AP4695213? Thanks,
1 Answer Hello Mark. Yes, it sounds like the control board is bad if the thermistor is good. You will need to replace the board on the unit. Read More...
Simon August 21, 2013 for Model Number FGHN2844LF8 Hi Dear, Please let me know where the switch board is located in this unit? so I will be able to change when my part will arrive. Also please let me know if the switchboard is instated a defrost timer ?
1 Answer Hello Simon. The switch board 5303918506 is located under the bottom of the unit. It is the defrost timer in the unit. Read More...
