SOURCE: Fridge freezer over heating and is not cooling fridge section

It is normal for the middle strip to be hot. Did you check the temp setting in the fridge section?
Also - you might check for blockage in the bottom. Excessive dirt/dog hair can block the air flow.
Good luck

SOURCE: Warm Fridge Section, Cool freezer section

Problem seems to be solved. I unplugged it for a short time and plugged it back in. I'm guessing it needed to be re-set.

SOURCE: Hi, I have double door refrigerator. The fridge

If the freezer is cold then it is having trouble circulating air, first make sure the evaporator fan in the freezer is on.  If it is not check for power, if you have power replace the fan.  If not it is probably the defrost thermostat.  If the fan is on then more than likely your evaporator coil is frozen over.  The fridge goes through a defrost cycle every 8-12 hours depending on the model.  If this is the case then get a hair dryer and melt all of the ice, this will keep everything working until you can get it fixed.  It is either the defrost thermostat, the defrost timer, or the defrost heater.  Check the heater for continuity, if that is good, check the defrost timer which should be located near the heater for continuity, if that is good replace the defrost timer.  Do not put the freezer on the coldest setting.  The freezer temp is really an air balance, and when you put it on the coldest setting it shuts off all airflow to the fridge.

SOURCE: The freezer section of my

when you open the freezer door you should hear a fan running, that's what cools your refrigerator section. If you don't hear that fan, that may be the problem. Also if there is frost on the back panel of the freezer that also may indicate a defrost problem, which could cause the same problems

Frigidaire digital double door fridge freezer.
Question edited for clarity and correct spelling of maker.

All questions on Fixya need full 'make model (what it is)' please.

The start setting is always half way and with the aid of a thermometer you adjust either way to get 4'C for the fridge and -18'C for the freezer. A digital display fridge and freezer normally gives the temperature in numbers, either Centigrade or Fahrenheit.

But if the fridge isn't cooling, there is something wrong with it. When was the last time the condenser fins were vacuumed out?

Or you have a refrigerant gas leak and need a top up.

Its defrost problem.--------- When you open the freezer door, then ice starts getting defrosted, because outside temperature is warm and due to that inside ice gets bit melted.--------- -------------- The working procedure of this unit is as follows: --- The compressor starts then it cools the freezer section.

In this cycle the fan in the freezer section starts running and the cool air in the freezer section is passed to the fridge section and the fridge section gets cold. The air from freezer to refrigerator passes from the section, in that section the damper is located. ----------- The damper is operated by a motor.Its a complete damper assembly with motor included in it.--The damper has door.Which closes and open with the help of motor.In your case the damper door is blocked by ice, because your refrigerator is not defrosting.But when you open the freezer door, the inside ice gets bit warm and it starts melting and this lets the fridge section get cool.------------------- In this case you will have to manually defrost the ice and inspect, if the problem solves.For manual defrost procedure, click the link below:-------- Click this below for more detail:--- http://technoanswers.blogspot.com/2011/06/refrigerator-is-not-cooling-properly.html ----------- This will help.Thanks.Helpmech.

It is a top freezer (double door) brand new (one month) WHIRLPOOL 410 litres refrigerator. Both the compartments are not cooling anymore. What can be the reasons? I hope it is not the refrigerant leakage...
Its possible that its refrigerant leak issue.Because both sections not cooling, this indicates low refrigerant problem.Because when refrigerant gets low the compressor gets weak and cause no or low cooling in both fridge and freezer section.The other possibility can be any of the fridge or freezer door not getting closed properly, if this is the case then it will let warm air inside and this never lets the refrigerator to get properly cool. ------- Click this link for more help and further troubleshooting:--

Frig stopped working but freezer is good? Help... I am handy.
When the freezer section gets cold and reaches its required cooling temperature, after that the frost on freezer section starts defrosting and the cooling fan in the freezer section blows this cool air from freezer to fridge. But if the defrost cycle does not start then over ice will get collected on freezer ventilations and that will block the air passing section from freezer to fridge, so the freezer gets cool but fridge section does not cool.
---------------

Its defrost problem. Try manual defrost by unplugging the refrigerator from main power outlet for 24 hours then reconnect it and check, if the same problem is noticed again,. If yes then its defrost board problem. The defrost board located in the back of fridge section. You can get required parts from www.repairclinic.com or from online sears part site. ------------- Thank you.

FRIDGE NOT WORKING
Most side by side and other models of refrigerator freezer combinations are of one basic design. The freezer section does the cooling for both compartments. The refrigerator section gets it cold air from the freezer compartment. Therefore check for frost on the back wall of the freezer compartment. If frost is present there you have a defrost problem and it is cutting off the air that cools the refrigerator section.

I think this problem may already be resolved in some manor because of the date of post. Posts should expire after an unreasonable time period.
