Kenmore Side-by-side refrigerator

Our power went out two nights ago for roughly 5 hours. The next morning the temperature of the refrigerator was 20 degrees and the freezer 1. Today the temps are still the same and everything in the frig is freezing. Tried to raise temp on key pad but the refrigerator temperature remains at 20 degrees. Please help!!

My freezer has had ice built up on the bottom shelve for about a year now. It leaks once in awhile, what can I do?

The power cut may have damaged the compressor. If it overheated trying to restart it may just click on and off for a while. Check if the compressor is hot and running.

Apparently, you will need to call a service man.
You may be low on freon.
Sometimes leaks occur and are not serviceable except by a service man.
I recommend that you find a service man in your area. There may be one at this website listed who would be close.

Freezer on side by side is not working properly

Good Morning Friend,

I understand the freezer portion is not working properly on your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# GLRS234ZA. I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your home's circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. Restore power and make sure the temperatures are set to 0 degrees for the freezer and 37 for the refrigerator. Give your refrigerator 24 hours to stabilize at the set temperatures. 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.

Freezer and refrigerator are too warm

Good Morning Friend,

I understand that your Frigidaire refrigerator, model#FRS6R5EMB, is not cooling well. I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your home's circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. Restore power and make sure the temperatures are set to 0 degrees for the freezer and 37 for the refrigerator. Give your refrigerator 24 hours to stabilize at the set temperatures.

Usually this is the defrost timer that is sticking. If you post the model number I can see about parts.

My frigde is beeping consecutively and wont stop and the temperature wont show it just doesnt work ever since the electricity flickered this morning like five times

Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly.
Unplug it and wait 20 - 30 minutes. The compresor needs 10 to 15 minuts of off time to re-start. Power losses of less than 5 minutes will cause the compressor thermal overload to cycle repeatedly until something fails or in the case of non-electronic control defrost timers... the next defrost cycle. What happens is the coolant pressures are so high that the compressor can not start. Let it stabilize for 20 - 30 minutes by unplugging it and try it again. If that does NOT work respond here and we will help you.

This is what caused your problem: ever since the electricity flickered this morning like five times

Thanks for choosing FixYa,
Kelly

No water or ice from older kenmore side by side

You must pull fridge out the water valve is in the bottom back. Sounds like the valve is stuck open. You can Google your model# to find appliance parts to order new valve.
