Josestove April 18, 2013 for Model Number none On a old frigidare one door (not auto defrost) do the temp controls all common. There is no model # & the ref goes on for 10 seconds & shuts off to cycle again.
1 Answer Josestove, You will want to check the Start relay on the unit. When you pull the start relay off you can shake it and if it rattles you will want to replace the relay. This would be an indication that the relay is bad. Read More...
Michelle April 01, 2013 for Model Number Frs24zrhw2 My fridge is warm the freezer is cold, the fan is running in the freezer. The door is open where the sensor is in the fridge control knob. What could it b? The temperature control in freezer? Or the fan?
1 Answer Michelle, If the damper is open, the fan running and the freezer temperature ok then you will want to check to see if you are having a defrost issue. You may see frost on the back wall of the freezer. If you do not then pull the rear cover of the freezer compartment and check to see if the evaporator coils are impacted with ice. If it is then you will need to check the continuity of the defrost bimetal 5303917954 and the defrost heater 218169802. If either one of the parts does not show continuity then replace that part. If both have continuity then you would need a new defrost timer 215846602. Read More...
Allen, Tx Resident February 08, 2013 for Model Number FRS26ZSHB3 I paid a technician to replace my temperature cold control (PS462839) two years ago. This January, the freezer/refrigerator stopped cooling on its own. However, if I just open the freezer door, or tap on the box that houses the thermostat, the then that activates the cold control to turn on, as it has stopped activating on its own. Is the temperature cold control device bad or is it something else? If possible, I would really like to replace the part myself this time.
1 Answer Hello Allen, tx resident, Based on the description the most likely cause of failure would be the temperature control 5303300027. Read More...
Harley November 10, 2012 for Model Number FRS26ZSHB1 My refrigerator goes from normal operation for a few hours to no cooling after about twelve hours. It has never frozen up. I changed the defrost thermostat, and then the defrost timer. Freezer is 14°F for awhile then it is 35°F and then it comes back on and cools to 14°F again. Temperature Control next?
1 Answer Hello Harley, If the unit never froze up and the evaporator fan starts back up if you stop it by the blade, the temperature control 5303300027 is the part responsible. Read More...
R Brown October 29, 2012 for Model Number FRS26KR4JW1 Freezer coils freeze solid. Will not defrost coils. Has new defroster heater, timer, and freezer thermostat. Also in the wiring diagram it shows a cold cont. What is this and could this be the trouble?
1 Answer Hello R Brown. No, it is not the temperature control. There has to be a wiring issue if the heater, thermostat, and timer are all new and the unit does not defrost. This is the complete defrost cycle components. Read More...
Sansukai June 15, 2012 for Model Number FRS26ZRF Can you explain why the freezer section is cold but the refrigerator section is not? Everything placed there do not get cold.
1 Answer Hello Sansukai. Check for frost on the back wall inside the freezer. If there is some there, It sounds like you may have a defrost problem with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the back wall of the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. I will include a link at the end to assist you how to use the multi-meter if needed. If both parts are good, you will need to replace the defrost timer. Once the problem is repaired, you will need to thaw out the ice on the coils before the unit will operate properly. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Mike December 31, 2011 for Model Number FRS26ZRF The compressor and fans stopped running on my refrigerator after running for a half an hour after being off for several months. When the refrigerator did run, it would take a long time to cool down and the evaporator coil in the freezer would ice up. Could the defrost timer be the problem here?
1 Answer Hello Mike. It sounds like you may have a defrost problem with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the back wall of the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater 218169802 and the defrost thermostat 5303917954. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.
