The freezer is working fine and I hear the fan in the freezer working when I open the door, however the refrigerator is not getting enough cold air into it. I place my hand under the vent where the air is supposed to come in from the freezer and hardly feel any air flow. It becomes even harder to detect when I put the setting to a higher number. (Coldest setting) My refrigerator in a side by side model number TFX22ZPDA WW

Brand name and model would help but here is a guess. Most frost free refrigerators have the main cooling unit in the freezer area side. To get the fresh food side cold, there is a small fan in the freezer side that blows cold air to the fresh food side through a duct work or trap door. If that fan stops or fails for and reason, the first place you will notice the temp rise is in the fresh food section. See if you can hear the freezer fan running. You may need to push in the door switch for the freezer light to hear the fan because they sometimes run the fan wiring through the door switch. It may stop when door is opened.

most likely you have a bad damper,go here to see it

all that happens is the evaporator coil in the freezer gets cold,the evap fan blows the cold air to the fridge section and it goes through the damper,when it gets cold enough in the fridge section the thermostat on the damper closes the damper door,your damper broke in the closed position,this is as long as the door wasn't left open or anything like that,if it was the air ducts could have froze up but most likely it will be the damper.go here and it will show you where it is up near the light in the back and it's part number 18.hope this helps

is there any frost on your food packages or on the ceiling where the light is?if so the door was left open and the air vents are froze up or you have a bad damper or evaporator fan motor,open the freezer door,do you hear the fan blowing?if so the fan motor is good,check for ice on the ceiling and packages,if that checks good look at the back inside wall of the freezer,if that's covered with like snow or frost you have a defrost problem or also you have a damper in your model,it's closed and won't open to let the cold air in from the freezer.

go here,this is the part,all that happens is the evaporator coil in the freezer gets cold,the evap fan blows the cold air from the freezer up into the fridge section,in your model the damper door opens to let the cold air in,when it gets cold enough the damper closes and that's it,so if the door wasn't left open and the fan is blowing in the freezer you have a bad damper.

check the damper vent door for proper opening and closing as if this door is frozen shut or broken and jammed it cant open to let cold air in from freezer it will be behind a plastic grille between the freezer and fridge compartments and you should hear a fan in there running to move cold air too

first off what is the brand name and model number?is the freezer cold?if so when you open the freezer door do you hear the fan blowing?all a fridge does is get cold in the freezer and the evap fan blows cold air from the freezer to the fridge side that's it,if you don't hear the fan when you open the freezer you have a bad evap fan motor,but send more info.

usually when the bottomof the freezer is cold and the top isn't it's the evap fan motor isn't working and all the cold air sits at the bottom.when you open the freezer door you should hear the fan running inside the freezer,also tried to look up your model but it didn't come up.open the fridge door,look up on the right and hear the cieling and you'll see a tag with the model and serial numbers,i just need the model number and i can help you better

On most refrigerators you get your cold air from the "freezer" compartment. If the freezer fan motor is inoperable, this will prevent the proper amount of cold air to flow into the "fresh food" compartment. Make certain that the fan motor does not work with the freezer button within the door frame activated. On some models, with the door open, the fan motor will not operate. Open the freezer door and activate the freezer button for several seconds to determine whether the fan is properly working or not. If not, contact an appliance service company.

Make sure that you are not overloading the top shelf of the refrigerator section. There is a small vent near the top where cold air blows in. You should also be able to hear a fan blowing as well when the compressor is running. The fan will be easier to hear when the freezer door is open. If you can't hear the fan, likely the motor has gone out and the cold air is not circulating like it needs to be.

There's a capacitor by or on the compressor that probalbly needs replacing. This is the cheapest route .

It sounds like the fan in your freezer is not working so it can't get the cold air to the frig or your coils are not defrosting and it is stopped u and cant blow air into te frig, One way to check if you hear the fan and know that it is working open the frig and put your hand up near the vent to see if you can fill cold air if you can't now open the freezer door if you can feel the cold air or more air r coils then you could before then your coils are stoped up the unit is not defrosting.
