Calypso August 18, 2017 for Model Number ffu14f7hbb Deep freeze interior light flashes and alarm pulses when freezer door is opened. Control panel does not respond to temperature adjustment, etc. Control panel says 0 degrees which is confirmed with a thermometer. Tried powering off and restarting but problem continues. Obviously an alarm setting but not listed in Frigidaire manual and Frigidaire tech support had not suggestions. Has the control board failed or is there an alternative possibility?
1 Answer Calypso, The alarm going off would be caused by a faulty control board of the unit part number 297235200. Read More...
Ganga P July 24, 2017 for Model Number FFHI7F7HWE How do I reset flashing light on frigidaire upright freezer after power lost.
1 Answer Ganga, If you push any key on the control of the unit this should stop the light from flashing and if it does not then you would need a new electronic control assembly. Read More...
H K June 20, 2017 for Model Number LFFH21F7HWB Door Ajar alarm sounds. Door is shut and well sealed. Alarm is reset. Sometimes will stay off and other times the door alarm will start again in a few minutes. Temp at 0, Freezer working normally. I've unplugged for a few minutes to do a reset. Have same issue intermittently with another unit LFFH17F7HWD Any suggestions? Is a control board difficult to replace?
1 Answer HK, First thing is check or replace the door switch 297243800 and check for loose connections, check the wiring harness at the freezer door hinge and make sure the door closes and seals along the bottom of the door and activates the switch. If the problem persists replace the control board 297235200. The control board is relatively easy " To remove the Precision Set control assembly: 1. Disconnect power to freezer. 2. Using a small flat bladed screwdriver or equivalent tool, carefully pry under the bezel until the retaining latches release from the door assembly. Pull control assembly straight out to avoid damaging the electrical connection wire prongs. To install the Precision Set control assembly: 1. Push control in gently with the palm of your hand. You may need to slightly adjust the bezel position up or down to align connector pins. 2. Gently push control flush to door with palm of hand." Read More...

Ken M May 07, 2017 for Model Number LFFH21F7HWT New board put on part no. 297366300 will only work on flash freeze then go's off won't come back on
1 Answer Ken, If the unit will only work on flash freeze then this issue sounds like it could be a faulty thermistor or you have received a bad control board. The thermistor should read 10K ohms at room temp. Read More...
Kathy April 10, 2017 for Model Number LFFH21F7HWG What is the best temperature setting to use. The only options we have are 1 to 10. We set it on 10, but we have freezer burn on our meat. What is the scale? is 1 the lowest & 10 the highest. Someone told us to put it on 4. Can you help?
Sean April 04, 2017 for Model Number GLFH17F8HWD I opened the door and dropped a case of meat on the top of the freezer. The light bulb went out and I thought the vibration broke the filament. Replaced bulb and temp alarm came on. The light stays on all the time even if I disconnect the switch. The fan runs with the door open. Freezer will not hold temp anymore. Is this a control panel issue?
1 Answer Sean, This issue would be most likely caused by a faulty control board on the unit. Read More...
Bernie March 30, 2017 for Model Number LFFH17F7HWD I just had a new fan installed because of the noise about 4 months ago and it is starting again. It appears that when the fan starts, the sound is normal, but after a while the noise is there. Almost like after a time running the fan gets hot.
1 Answer Hello Bernie, This can be due to a loose fan blade, frost building up near the fan so it causes vibration, or simply a bad part. In some cases, it isn't the fans' fault at all, but a fan motor mount issue, (like a harmonic vibration type issue). This is the kind of thing that basically just needs to be looked at to determine if the fan is actually causing the noise or if it is a nearby vibration that can be corrected with a piece of electrical tape between two pieces of sheet metal, etc. Read More...
