Fridgidare/Electrolux top freezer not freezing fan stays on.

The top freezer on my 4 year old 18.2cu frigidare/electrolux refrigerator is not freezing and the inside compartment fan stays on continuously. The freezer compartment is as cold as the refrigerator compartment. Is this an easy fix?

Look for ice buildup on the back wall of the freezer.
If ice is there you have a defrost parts issue.
If not, check the compressor to make sure it is running.

Electrolux ETE 4200 SB-R freeze fridge. freezer cold, but fridge wont cool. back of the unit sealed with only compressor (?) visible at bottom. Cant check fans, coils etc. Cheers Gary

That is not a good model number. Is it a top mount freezer or side by side? Generally in electrolux the freezer is what cooks the fridge, if fridge is not cooling, it could be several things causing it.
1. Damper not opening
2. Damper has ice build up
3. The return has ice build up
4. The freezer evap assembly is not defrosting to allow air flow.
5. The evap fan is not turning.

Water leaking somewhere in exlectrolux freezer and causing the fan to freeze up. Help

Hello friend, thanks you for your post!
It sounds like a possible leak within your water line or water filter and that is what could be causing your Electrolux refrigerator fan to freeze. I would recommend having a professional come out to properly diagnosis your refrigerator.

The leak could also be within the cabinet and a technician would have the appropriate tools need to locate the cause of the leak. I hope this information has been helpful. -Matt

My RJ 523V-R refrigerator has worked perfectly for 8 years, but suddenly stopped cooling the fridge properly while the freezer seems ok. how can I fix this?

Often times their is a fan from the freezer section to the refrigerator section, of some brands of boxes. If the fan goes out, the refrigerator sections no longer cools.

Its not freezing!! keeping things cool, but not freezing

I would definitely start by checking if the fan is working. Note that the fan is switched off when you open the door, so you need to press the door switch and then check if it is working. If not, that will be the problem.
