Won't cut off unless i unplug numbers change by themselves and keeps beeping i have unpluged and reset

If moisture/water gets to the control board it will/may cause it to act this way. Or the control board may have a short. It may also have a bug, mouse, or gecko laying on the controls. Something causing it to "misfire" or short. If a visual inspection does not show evidence then its probably control board failure.

My frigidaire a/c is set 73fhrenheit after running for a time the temp. on the unite drops to 60 degrees by it self what is the problem ?

AC units, no matter if they are big/small, window or big central units. They will only cool the air in the room, or home, to about 15 degrees cooler than the outside air temperature. If you live in Georgia and it is 100?F+ outside, you will be lucky if the unit will reach 80?F even running all day.

My Frigidaire ac wall unit model FRA144HT2 has a humming sound after powering off and randomly starts humming hours after pushing the reset button

A humming sound coming from your Frigidaire AC wall unit after it has been powered off could be due to a few different reasons. I can provide some potential explanations and troubleshooting steps to consider:
  • FAN MOTOR
  • THERMOSTATE DELAY
  • ELECTRICAL ISSUE
  • REFRIGERANT FLOW
  • OTHER MECHANICAL ISSUES

How do I change temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit on Frigidaire Gallery Refrigerator, model EPTWFU01?

EPTWFU01 is the water filter part number. It isn't the model number of the refrigerator. Please check the model number. Often the model number is on the back of the refrigerator. Not all models support changing the temperature units. If your refrigerator has a button labeled C/F. Try pressing that to toggle back to Fahrenheit. On another model, FG4H2272UF, press and hold the + and - keypads on the refrigerator side of the control panel for 5+ seconds. One Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator is the GLHS36EJSB. The support page is https://support.frigidaire.com/Owner-Center/Product-Support/GLHS36EJSB . The current link to the manual for this model is https://na2.electroluxmedia.com/Original/Electrolux/Electrolux%20Assets/Document/Complete%20Owners%20Guide/English/241856000en.pdf . This model doesn't allow the units to be changed. The documentation for FG4H2272UF is available here: https://support.frigidaire.com/Owner-Center/Product-Support/FG4H2272UF . See the page 15 of the manual, https://na2.electroluxmedia.com/Original/Electrolux/Electrolux%20Assets/Document/Complete%20Owners%20Guide/English/A10883135en.pdf , for the information above. I hope this helps. Please add a comment with your refrigerator's actual model number for specific directions for toggling between degrees C and degrees F. Cindy Wells

Window ac/heater freezes up when using the heater?

This is likely due to a lack of airflow. Make sure that the air filter is clean and that there are no obstructions blocking the air intake or exhaust vents. If this does not resolve the issue, you may need to have a technician come out and inspect the unit for any other potential issues.

I have a Frigidaire FGH2272UF and want to change from centigrade to fahrenheit? Help

Here are some videos, but it looks by doing a search on that model, that you can't change it. Having said that, the manual shows both, but perhaps that is for display. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1581184/Frigidaire-Fg4h2272uf.html?page=13#manual Videos https://www.google.com/search?q=Frigidaire+FGH2272UF+change+from+centigrade+to+fahrenheit This search forces your model to be featured https://www.google.com/search?q=Frigidaire+%22FGH2272UF%22+change+from+centigrade+to+fahrenheit It doesn't appear to be in the manual. Centigrade is much easier. Fridge at 3'C and Freezer at minus 18'C. Freezing is 0' and boiling is 100'. You can hang an American thermometer inside. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1581184/Frigidaire-Fg4h2272uf.html .. ..

After 11 years, my Frigidaire window unit has stopped blowing cold air. On the first startup 3 days ago, it blew cold air after 5 min. Then 2 days ago it blew cold air after 10 min. Today no cold air.

Make sure that the cooling coils are clean. Also that the cooling fans are working. It may have lost it's treon and it is time to buy a new one.
