SOURCE: Ge side by side - high low humming noise from freezer section

I have a hotpoint HSS25GFPJWW fridg. The coil that opens the flapper door for the ice was bad so i replaced it . Now when i push the leaver in to get ice the fridge shut's down like ther is a large power drain. This was doing this before i replaced the coil but the flapper door was not opening then now it opens. It evens shut's the compressor off.

SOURCE: FREEZER WORKING - FRIDGE NOT WORKING

Ok, got it sussed! [well here's what I did anyway]...

Quite simply, I turned off the fridge-freezer at the mains overnight and in the morning, broke and chucked out the ice chunks that had lined up in the bottom of the freezer section and then turned it back on. I returned that night to see that it was working fine again! Hallelujah, I got my fridge back!!

So it seems that all it needed was a good long defrost, so far so good! I hope this solves your problem.

CallMe-

Your "freezer" and "refridgerator" temps are not jumping back to 14 and 44 respectively. When you change temps, they both wait 3-5 seconds before they revert back to a temp reading, not a temp setting.

Does your "freezer" make any loud or thumping noises? If not, do you hear a quiet whisper when both compartment doors are closed?

Solutions could be :
1. Servicing the coolant (might have a small leak)
2. Checking the seal on your freezer compartment (black rubber that meets the metal frame)
3. Your internal cooling fan is not operating and needs replacing (but I think your temps would be significantly higher).

Best of luck.

Try these solutions in these order:
1. Switch off the fridge and leave the door open overnight. Switch it back on in the morning.
Explanation: The sensor inside the fridge gets frozen and cannot control the temperature properly.
2. Switch off the fridge. Unplug it. At the back of the fridge (behind the unit, not inside) there is a large grid. Clean it with a hoover thoroughly. Open the fridge. Dry the back of the fridge if wet (inside the fridge). If frosted wait for it to defrost and then dry it. Plug in the fridge. Switch the fridge back on. This one worked for me.
Explanation: The dust in the grid deprives the fridge from cooling down and the unit can't control the temperature in the fridge section.
3. Switch off the fridge. -Unplug it. Empty it. Turn it upside down. Plug it in. Switch it on for 24 hours. Switch it off. Unplug, return to normal and switch on.
Explanation: This has to do with the pressure of the gas inside the compressor. I have not tried it but this advice as given to me by a qualified electrician when I commented the (in)famous F2 problem in Liebherr fridge/freezers.
Hope it helps. Regards. Albert

SOURCE: Zanussi ZFC 45/30 SS is hot at front between the doors..

This is normal. This is a defroster to keep moisture from condensation from freezing the doors shut.

Hi i have a defy f640 SS fridge...the fridge side works fine...but the freezer side is not cooling...please help

Hi,

Please ensure that you're using a compressor that is compatible with your fridge. You can compare your newer compressor to the one that was originally installed to your fridge. If the newer part number is different from that of your older compressor, then you might want to swap it for the exact model of your old compressor.

Otherwise, you could use a handyman from Angi or Home Depot in order to overcome the issue.

Thank you.

Hi i have a defy f640 SS fridge...the freezer side works fine...but the fridge side is not cold as before...please help

It could be that your evaporator fan motor has broken ... which for some refrigerators results in your symptoms of good freezer temperature and too warm in the fridge side. I am not familiar with your model so there could be other issues.

Ge profile bottom freezer model # PGSS5NFXA SS. Got up this morning and freezer thawing both fridge and freezer same

Not sure if the compressor is running. If not, you'll need a repair man. Since fans are running, most likely the thermistor. Also, if you haven't unplug from the wall, wait 10 seconds then plug back in; this may reset the control board. The link below may help. GE Refrigerator Not Cold Enough

Cold air not getting from Freezer to Fridge

I actually know nothing about refrigerators, but was able to fix the same exact problem where cold air was not getting to the fridge side of the side by side. The freezer was working just fine. I unplugged the fridge and freezer and tore all the shelving out to get behind a panel in the back of the inside of the freezer. There is a pass-through between the freezer and the refrigerator at the top back of the freezer on the side-by-side refrigerator. The passthrough was totally frozen over and blocking air from passing through and cooling the refrigerator side. I let it all de-thaw and then was able to pull the chunks of ice out, and all seems to be working great now. Be careful getting the ice chunks out as there are some controls there - it's probably best to just let it all thaw and melt by itself - which wouldn't require tearing all the shelving out. One could simply let the freezer dethaw for a day and then plug back in and both sides should work just fine.
