LG french door refrigerator with bottom freezer. Freezer is cold but the refrigerator is warm

Hello. I have tried several things to try and fix this. I had an electrical burn smell coming from the main control board so I started there and replaced it. It did not solve the problem. I realized the evaporator fan was not running so I ordered that and a defrost thermostat. I replaced the thermostat first and the fan came on quick and then stopped. not sure what to try next. any suggestions?

    I am not sure if this will help, but have you tried just adjusting the temperatures in the fridge? I know that sounds so simple, but it might make the difference. Maybe there is a problem with the defrost system in your fridge, or maybe a part just needs to be replaced. Hope you get it figured out!

    It's weird that replacing the thermostat didn't fix the problem. That's what I would have suggested. My appliance is having the opposite problem; the refrigerator is really cold and the freezer is warm. I assumed that it needed a new thermostat, so I'm going to call an appliance repair service to see if they can fix it. Maybe a professional can help you with your problem too.http://www.americanapplianceinc.com/part...

Hello, my LG Refrigerator (lmx28988st) is acting up. The fridge stays cold, but the freezer won't freeze (its stays around 45F). It has the french doors for the fridge, 2 drawers for bottom freezer.

Have you confirmed the freezer door switch is functional? If this switch fails to detect the door is shut (you may or may not get an alarm), the unit will fail to cool properly. Meaning the actuator will not allow cold air to be diverted to the freezer.

If all else fails, you may try contacting LG directly by clicking here:

My bottom mount french door refrigerator, the upper part does not cold, it's warm

Hi,
Sorry your having trouble so soon!
First thing you need to check is inside the freezer section.
The freezer fan, the fan is W10128551 and should be running
along with the main compressor. Since the freezer is working,
I would check the food on the top drawer or on the freezer door shelf.
They too might be soft..without the fan.
I would You tube 'evaporator fan motor replacement Amana bottom freezer model' Yes I know it say's Whirlpool, but your unit is really
a Amana designed unit. I would give this a difficulty of 3 out 5 wrenches.. Take your time..

I have a LG refrigerator LFX25980n with FF failure, how to fix?

Is the freezer cold, but the refrigerator part is not cold?

If so, "FF" probably means fan failure. The fan which moves cold air from the freezer to the refrigerator is not working properly. The fix is to replace this fan.
