Hello Friend, this is Z. I am happy to assist you!

I see that your question is listed under Frigidaire Upright Freezer; however, please help me understand the issue you are experiencing. Is your freezer showing error code OFF? If so, the temperature control is in the OFF position. When this occurs the temperature control turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect the power to the light bulb or other electronics. Let's try activating your freezer by pressing the UP arrow until display shows "4" or desired setting. Please allow 24 hours for temperature to stabilize. For future reference you can lock the control to keep from accidently changing the temperature setting. I hope these troubleshooting tips help you in some small way. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your freezer status has changed successfully.

Hello Michael - Sounds like the temperature control was accidently turned OFF. When this occurs the temperature control turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect the power to the light bulb or other electronics. Let's try activating the freezer by pressing the UP arrow until display shows "4" or desired setting. Allow 24 hours for temperature to stabilize. For future reference you can lock the control to keep from accidently changing the temperature setting. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if the unit's status has changed successfully. Thank you.

Hello Ron Thacker - Often when the temperature is too cold, it is because the temperature control is set too cold/high. Turn the control to a warmer setting and allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize. If the unit does not stabilize within 24 hours, then it could possibly have a faulty thermostat or temperature control. I would personally reach out to an experienced tech that will be able to identify the precise reason.

Hi - Did the unit previously experience a power loss? If the temperature of the food rises to a level unsafe for a long-term storage, the buzzer will sound and the red light, if equipped, will also glow. After deactivating the alarm and the unit has run approximately 4 hours, the red light should go off. Try resetting the unit by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. Wait approximately ten minutes and turn unit back on. If the red light continues to stay on, I would contact a professional to move forward accurately. The freezer may possibly have a communication problem with the control board, temperature control or a wiring harness.

Hello gorog52 - From what you have described and the upright freezer keeps displaying OFF, you possibly have a communication problem with the electronic control assembly. I recommend contacting a professional to accurately diagnose and repair the unit.

My children left the freezer open overnight now the compresser want kick on... what can I do?

Good day,
Manufacturers of freezers do not give the option of running the machine much above that temperature. Normal operating temperature for a freezer is about -2 to about 8 above F.
Otherwise people could accidentally set the temp too warm and cause a loss of food.
Some appliance parts houses carry universal thermostats that could possibly cover the temperature range your looking for, but 30 degrees is far to warm to preserve frozen food safely.
