You will have to make an observation to see if the fan motor is working or not. If so then you will have to checck the incoming voltage to the fan motor so as to confirm that the fan motor is faulty.
If so the recurrance of the fan motor could be due to water condensation into the motor which is not suited for the purpose.
If the fridge is under warranty this complaint must be made to the delearship for a possible manufacturring defect if the fan motor has failed again, so that a new version of motor is installed that can withstand the conditions. ..

Hi,
You will be okay as long as the garage does not go below freezing. If the fridge gets that cold it could start to have problems.

Hi,

As the weather is getting warmer for many people their freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...

Check out this tip that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...

Is your circulating fan working?
Sometimes they stick and need a shot of WD 40 and then work
it back and forth a little until it wants to take off again. Keep me informed
and PLEASE give a Thumbs Up for the effort. The Raz Shack

you have a clogged defrost drain. when y our unit goes into defrost, the water that is supposed to go down a tube from your freezer down to the bottom outside of the unit, into a pan to evaporate, instead is going into your fridge etc. This drain needs to be cleared. I would not recommend doing it yourself, you may cause further more expensive damage.

yes.coils are the heart of the machine.adrian;;;

If the fan motor shaft is smooth with 1 flat spot the hub on the blade probably has a hex set screw that can be tightned with an allen wrench. If the fan motor shaft is threaded there should be a nut holding the blade on. Also yur motor bearings could be going bad causing vibration which damages the fan blade.

switch off your refrigerator for at least 5 hrs. than again switch it on.. if your problem is not solved that it is sure that your thermostart is not working........please replce it

yep sounds like you have a bloked drain, u may have to pull the freezer apart inside to fix it

Sorry but I know nothing of the new-fangled fridges and freezers with their codes, but what does tend to stop an appliance that otherwise works well is a lack of cooling air around the motor/compressor unit and when the unit works harder during the summer or in the depths of winter when the heating is full on the thermal protection can cut power to the unit. Cleaning dust and fluff, ensuring all the power connections are clean and tight and not generating heat and ensuring there is adequate air space between the wall and the unit.

Check the temperature inside the freezer, chances are it just is letting you know it hasn't reached the correct temperature yet.

It is probably the thermistor, F8 is a thermistor error on most Frigidaire freezers... Frigidaire Freezer Thermistor 297110400

Thank you for your post friend.

I understand that you are having intermittent defrost issues with your Frigidaire refrigerator. Are you experiencing an accumulation of ice buildup, are you losing food? Defrost issues can be caused by a variety of things such as a defective defrost heater, thermostat or defective door gasket. I recommend that you visually inspect the door gasket for defects such as gaps or tears. You can also use a dollar bill to test the door gasket. Place a dollar bill in between the door and the body of the freezer. If the dollar bill pulls out with no to little resistance, you may need to replace the door gasket. A faulty door gasket can allow warm air to enter the compartment and cause frost to buildup.

If there is a miscommunication within your freezer, a reset can possibly correct this issue. I recommend that you reset your refrigerator by unplugging it for 10 minutes. I hope this information has been helpful. -NS

Well start by defrosting it. Empty out the contents and put the contents in a cooler and then switch it off. You may need to switch it off at the electrical control panel by flipping the circuit breaker. Once you have turned it off, use hot water to help remove the ice. Have plenty of old towels around for this as water will get spilled on the floor. Once it is empty and the ice removed you may discover a temperature control switch, but if not, just be prepared to repeat the exercise every 6 months or so. In any case it is not a good idea to run the freezer when it is iced up. Once it is emptied and cleared out switch it back on and wait 10 minutes before adding your stuff back. Sometimes freezers will heat up a bit before they cool down. Once you verify its getting cold, put your food back in it. Good luck.....RD
