It sounds as tho you have an airflow situation.you would want to make sure that food items are not blocking airvents in freezer.also make sure that you have adequate space in your freezer for proper air circulation.also tell your tech.to make sure all air vents are free of ice.

Our fridge, SIDE BY SIDE BUILT-IN REFRIGERATOR-kitchen aid KSRT25CRWH01 freezer is working but not refrigerator, How do fix it

Make sure this fan is running. You may have to hold the door switch in for it to run. There is a flap you adjust with the fridge temp. control. Make sure it's opening and closing when you adjust the fridge temp.
The problem could be the electronic control if you have one or the mechanical linkages.

If the evaporator coils behind the back panel of the freezer are icing up because of auto defrost failure that will stop the circulation of cold air and eventually affect the freezer too.

check defrost timer, defrost heater, defrost thermostat. In most newer models the timer has been replaced by an electronic control board. If the heater and thermostat are ok it’ll be the control.

I have a Kitchen Aid refridgerator. My freezer
Hi, Check the rear inside panel of the freezer section and see if there is a frost build up. Also check and make sure the evaporator fan motor in the freezer is running.
If there is a frost build up, remove the rear indise panel and check the defrost heater and bi-metal switch for continuity. The bi-metal switch located on the top of the evaporator has to be tested while it is still cold.
If either of them show an open circuit, it will need replaced. If both of these parts show ok, you will need to replace the defrost timer/board.
Please let me know what you find and if I can assist you further.

How long have you had this refrigerator and is this the first time this has happened? Your refrigerator has a control board and I believe the board is causing the refrigerator not to defrost every 8 hours. Let me know these questions and I will help you resolve this. Thanks, Sea Breeze

GE Side by side Food section too warm GSHS6HGDECSS My food section is too warm. Freezer seems fine. A verified thermometer in my fridge side says the temp is 45*. The front control panel says the temp is set to 34* and actual temp is 34*. Freezer section is at -1* and working fine. Coils are clean, seems like all fans are running. The only issue my diagnostic codes identify is Thermistor #5 fail. Where is Thermistor #5 located? Or, where can I find a service manual for this specific unit? TIA

Liebherr 3846 freeze not beeping. Hi there! Not sure if it is really a problem or a functionality. When I leave the fridge door open it beeps after 1 minute or so, which I great. But this is not happening with the freezer. So no matter if the doors is opened for an hour...it does not beep. Ok, it beeps after a few hours when the temperature is higher than -6 or so...And that is a problem. Is that normal? Is there a way to activate this alarm? It never worked and I thought it was normal, is not it?
