Bob July 16, 2017 for Model Number FRS6HR5JB4 Have been looking around for a new damper control for my 2009 Frigidare model FRS6HR5JB4. Some websites list the part # as a 241600902 and some say I can use a 241600906 or a 241600902. I can't seem to tell the difference other than price. Do you know the difference, and can I use either?
1 Answer Hello Bob! For difference between both parts are the switch connections as well as fitment. For the model number supplied you'll need to order part number 241600902. Thanks! Read More...
Fernando June 11, 2017 for Model Number LFUS2613LP0 What would be the reason for the top Fridge vent where i assume the damper is, getting iced up and for fluctuating temps especially on the freezer side where they drop below 0F and also go up to 10F? I checked the door gaskets and it doesnt seem thats the issue...
1 Answer Fernando, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty damper assembly that is either not fully opening or struggling to open and close. Read More...
Jemiliz June 01, 2017 for Model Number LFUS2613LP0 The temperature on my fridge fluctuates throughout the day. Basically in the middle of the day when is super warm it would go up to 50 degrees (fresh food area) and the freezer stay at 0 degrees. At night the fresh food area starts to get cool and goes on to the default temp 38F and the freezer goes to -12.... Also the temperatures displayed on a separate thermometer are not consistent with what the display shows most of the time....
1 Answer Jemiliz, First check and clean any residue or debris from the front kickplate grille, under the refrigerator and move the refrigerator out and remove the cover and check and clean the condenser coil, fan blade and fan motor. A restriction or air flow to or through the condenser will reduce the heat transfer from the coil to the room and cause the interior temps. to increase and fluctuate. You could have an erratic damper or sensor, but try that first. The machine is in an air conditioned environment, not out in the garage, or someplace/something subject to high or fluctuating temperatures ? Read More...
Tom April 13, 2017 for Model Number frigidaire glhs68ejsb0 My refrigerator/freezer temperatures are all over the place. Sometimes the freezer side will drop down to -25 (or colder) and the refrigerator side will jump up to 50 (or warmer).
Dustin February 26, 2017 for Model Number FRS6KR5JSB0 I've replaced my damper assembly two times now in three months. The freezer works but the fridge is getting warm again. I noticed a very small amount of frost in the back wall of the freezer. Any idea what is going on?
1 Answer Dustin, You will want to check the evaporator coils to make sure that the coils are not impacted with ice. If there is then you will want to test the defrost heater and defrost thermostat to make sure that they have continuity. If there is continuity then the issue will be the defrost control board.

Paulina January 05, 2017 for Model Number Frigidaire model FRS6R5ESBL How long does it take for both freezer and fridge to begin to cool after replacing damper control?
1 Answer Hello Paulina. If you leave the doors closed the unit is usually down to temp within 4 to 6 hours. Read More...
1 Answer Ed, You will want to check the defrost heater and defrost thermostat for continuity and if there is not continuity then the part would be faulty and need to be replaced. If both check ok then the issue will be the control board. Read More...
1 Answer Joe, Wit the evaporator fan cycling on and off then this would be a issue with a faulty defrost control board. The part number will be 5303918476. Read More...
Jeff October 28, 2016 for Model Number FRSH6KR5JW0 I have a 4 blinking on my Fresh Foods indicator. This points to a problem with the damper assembly. From what I've read from others with a damper assembly problem, the freezer side still stayed frozen. Although my freezer indicator still shows 6 (as it always has), the freezer side is still warm. Could this still be a damper assembly issue? Or perhaps something else.
1 Answer Hello Jeff. The 4 flashing means that there is an issue with either your damper or the main control board. If it happens again you need to check the voltage to the damper and make sure you have 120vac. If you do then your damper is the issue and if not then the control board is the issue. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Nola 504 October 28, 2016 for Model Number Frs6r5esbp I ordered the damper assy listed in the parts selections but when I received it, it only had 1 switch/connector so I had to return it. Mine requires 2 switches/connectors. Do you have this part?
