Frs26r2aw5 freezing in frig side - Frigidaire FRS26F4C Side by Side Refrigerator

I have this same refrigerator, also purchased in 2006. Same exact problem. Fridge freezes, starting actually in the water line, you will notice water on door does not work, then top two shelves start to freeze. Lasts for a few days, then prob does not happen again for 6 months almost to the day. I've had this problem for almost 3 years!!! My service tech said to buy another, glitch in this system he can't figure out. Replaced damper x2, control board, and thermostat x2. Not sure what else to do. I hate the thought of more food lost to spoilage!

the compresser is stuck more then likley

if you turn up the temp in freezer and down on frig side and frig still freeze's than more than likly you have a bad frigerator thermastate.

Try runnning a manual test of the defrost cycle, could be that you are not getting enough airflow to the frig side, while the frig side is calling for more cold. Becuase the frig side is calling for more cold, and not able to get there it is causing more airflow across the water tube.???

Your refrigerator has electronic dampers that may be only stuck. I think it would not hurt to defrost the refrigerator and lets have a look at those damper motors and see if they are responding to your control settings. Let me know, Sea Breeze

Check your door fit. The gasket should be tight all the way around, you can push the door back into shape.

check damper control

Check the air dampers at the bottom of the fresh food section.They may have been moved to a open position. If so close them up some.
Otherwise the cold control thermostat may need to be replaced.

turn the temp control down a notch or 2

if u find out let me know. when we turn both frig/freez switches off the frig light comes back on flashes to number 6. it still seems cold be like this 2-3 days the food still seems cold. good luck. jax, fl
