The thermostat has broken down and needs to be replaced,, normaly when they brake down they just stay in the closed poshion so the fridge freezes up get a new one fitted and all will be well

Testimonial: "Thanks for you fast response, very helpful. I thought this may be the problem but wasnt sure. Are the thermostats easy to replace? Could I DIY, How?"

    you could fit a new thermostat yourself but its not easy to do and they can be broken very easly,, i would fine out how much it would cost to have it fitted first,, if its going to cost you an arm and a leg then have a go yourself,, but if you busted it then its not getting any cheaper is it? you should also get a warranty for any work done, so if it did brake down again soon its coverd

Westinghouse wse6100sa side by side fridge. Freezer not cold enough

Check to see that the fridge is level and the doors are properly aligned and closing properly.
If the door hinges are not set properly, the door will not close properly and there will be an air leak around the seals.
If this happens, the fridge will run continuously and all the stuff in your vegetable bin will keep freezing

I HAVE A WESTINGHOUSE FRIDGE. CAN ANYONE TELL ME THE BEST TEMPERATURE TO SET THE FRIDGE AND FREEZER TO

Probably no best, but they are adjustable to your own preferance. The MFG Owner's manual has a "factory" recommendation.
NO owner's manual? try manualslib.com

Freezer not working

Your refrigerator has a Control-defrost,adaptive timer ,PC board part number 241508001
This is providing your model is the one listed above your post WRS3R3EW. The model you listed in post does not come up. Until we can determine that the freezer is not defrosting you need to unplug and remove the back panel of freezer compartment to see if the evaporator coils are frozen or clear. If frozen this alone will cause a chain reaction that keeps vents to fresh food compartment open and cause freezing in that area. Go to link below and enter model number WRS3R3EW0 Then you will see a list of diagrams on left side, chose #11 this will show the control parts. Click link below Thanks, Sea Breeze

We have a Westinghouse WSE6100SA - side by side fridge freezer. Still under warranty. The repair guys have been twice now to temp fix the freezer, to no avail. the freezer is not freezing or I should say...

sound like the air supply baffel is the problem / or if the lower air vent is freezing over then the water is building due to icemaker / the water overflows on the inlet water fill tube to the icemaker and running down the inside behind the panel / they can take the fill tube from a ge icemaker kit and cut it in half and slide over the tube thats in your frig and it will keep it from running over / a problem wgi has had for awhile now / if you havent call sears i would since they should know the same.
