What is the starfoam for in my airconditionar for?
Hey friend, thanks for your inquiry!
The sytrofoam inside the air conditioner is part of the duct work and it also helps to hold colder temperatures. The new air conditioners do not have drain holes but instead recycle the water inside your appliance to help cool the internal components. I hope this information is helpful. -Matt
I have a frigidaire fra123cv1 every 3minutes it
Good morning jesse dixon, I appreciate your post!
Based off the information you have provided your Frigidaire air conditioner, FRA123CV1, cutting off every three minutes and then flashes "#88" then it will go back to the normal setting. Sounds it could be a possible issue within your control panel or power cord. Are you currently under warranty? If so, you might want to reach out directly to the manufacturer to determine the coverage on your air conditioner and the procedures to any potential remedy. I hope this helps to some degree. -Matt
Why is my Frigidaire 18,000 BTU A/C (FAM186R2A2) not coming on?
Hey friend, thank you for your inquiry!
I see you have recently changed the PC board inside of your Frigidaire air conditioner, FAM186R2A2, and now your appliance will not come on. It sounds like you could be having a potential issue within your power cord or another issue within that board. I would recommend having a professional come out to diagnose your appliance to avoid any further unnecessary part purchases. Hopefully this is helpful. -Matt
Why does it starts up then shuts off and all the lights start blinking
Hey friend, I appreciate your post!
I see that your Frigidaire air conditioner will start up then shut off and blink. It could possibly an issue with control panel or the power source of the appliance. I would attempt to perform a reset on the air conditioner which would be removing the plug and pressing the "Test" button, you will hear a click and the button will pop out. Then press the "Reset" button, you will hear another click then plug the appliance in. Those are the steps to resetting your air conditioner, if that does not successfully correct the problem please reply back. I look forward to your response. -Matt

Hello Friend, this is Z. I appreciate your post!

What is os code
Good Morning Friend, thank you for question!
I see that your post is listed under Frigidaire air conditioners and that you are receiving an error code OS. In order to better assist you, I would need your model number please. The serial tag, which lists your model number, is typically located behind the front grill by the air outlet or on the inside of the cabinet. Other possible
locations for the tag on a
room air conditioner is on the front edge of the chassis base or behind the dial plate of the
control panel. If you have a
split air conditioner, try checking on either the front or outer appliance on the right side of the cabinet. Thank you and I look forward to your response! - Z

My portable air conditioner won't cool.
First determine if the pump/compressor is working. If not, there's your problem. Needs repair done by a shop. Well, really, only a shop should be repairing Ac units due to certificatios,equipment and EPA refrigerant recovery regulations. Sorry. -Ned_

A/C unit does not blow cold air
Good Morning Friend,
I understand your Frigidaire air conditioner, model# FAA055P7A1, is not blowing cold air. I also see that you have had it in storage and it has not been run for 5 seasons. Please note that the "Cool " circuit has an automatic 3 minute time delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. The fan will continue to run during this time.
First, make sure you have cleaned the filter by following these instructions:
• Push the vent handle to the Vent Closed position (where applicable).
• Open the front panel.
• Grasp the filter by the center and pull up and out.
• Wash the filter using liquid dishwashing detergent and warm water. Rinse filter thoroughly. Gently shake excess water from the filter. Be sure filter is thoroughly dry before replacing.
• Or, instead of washing you may vacuum the filter clean.
Secondly, make sure the temperature sensing element, located behind the air filter, is not touching a cold coil. If it is straighten it away from the coil.
Lastly, try resetting your air conditioner to a lower temperature.
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 appliances status has changed successfully. Hope this is helpful.

How do you turn off power saver on frigidaire air conditioner
Good Afternoon Friend,
I understand you want to know how to turn off the power save mode for your Frigidaire air conditioner, model# FFRE12L3Q1. Your appliance will run in energy saver(econ) mode when used for the first time. In this mode, the fan will continue to run for 1 minute after the compressor shuts off. The fan then cycles on for 20 seconds at 10 minute intervals until the room temperature is above the set temperature, at which time the compressor turns back on. You will be able to turn the energy save mode off by selecting your temperature as well as your fan speed. 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 appliances status has changed successfully. Hope this is helpful.

Why wont compressor will not shut off
Good Afternoon Friend,
I understand that the compressor will not turn off, on your Frigidaire air conditioner. I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your home's circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. Sometimes there can be a miscommunication between the different boards inside your appliance. Restore power and see if the compressor stays on constantly. 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 appliances status has changed successfully. If further troubleshooting is needed, please leave me the model number of your air conditioner. Hope this is helpful.
