Vegetables in crisper are frozen, as well as liquids in bottom 1/2 of fridge door. The fridge & freezer temp controls won't adjust to our settings. Also, we're getting ice, but no water will dispense.

The freezer cools the refrigerator, so you actually get very cold air passing from the freezer to the refrig. The air from the freezer enters the refrig on the top and falls to the bottom where it is drawn back into the freezer. The temperature of the refrig is regulated by a thermostat and a fan that runs when the thermostat calls for cooling. If the refrig thermostat is faulty and causes the fan to run more than it should, there will be a freezing problem in the refrig at the bottom because cold air falls and warm air rises. If the refrig is thermostat is calling for cooling constantly, this will take more cold air from the freezer than is normal. Your freezer temp might be higher than normal and the refrig will be colder then desired. If the fan from the freezer is running constantly I would suspect a bad refrig thermostat.

Freezer is fine, but refrigerator is not cooling at all.

check the damper vent door between the refrige and freezer behind a plastic grille and make sure theres cold air coming in from the freezer,sometimes they freeze shut from condensation and can't open to cool the refrige

Side by side Admiral freezer freezes but fridge

check the damper vent door between the refrige and freezer and make sure its opening up to let cold air from freezer into the refrige,sometimes they freeze up and cant open and close when called upon to do so,if so deice it with a hair dryer,the side being hot is good telling you the compressor is operating correctly

After emptying the ice bin on 2 year old side frigidaire, the freezer is OK, but the fresh food side has stopped cooling. Any ideas?

check that the fan in the freezer is running,it circulates the cold air,if it isclose freezer door,open refrig. door lookto the upper left you will see where the cold air enters the refrig compartment and should fill air coming thruough vent this is a motorized unit and they sometimes fail,also check the return air hole located at bottomof refrig.sometimes get blocked by plastic bags etc

I have a hotpoint csx27h side by side refrigerator. the freezer get cold but the fridge part just started to where it wouldnt cool down. any suggestions? maybe the defrost?? the only things i have noticed...

check the operation of your damper door between the freezer and refrige compartments,this door opens and closes to throttle cold air from freezer to refrigerator compartment through the cold control,sometimes they freeze upand can't move,sounds like your door has frozen closed,if so,remove entire damper door unit,clean and deice,replace and see if this rectifies your troubles
