Hey Rene S, thanks for your post!

In order to reset your Frigidaire refrigerator you would need to disconnect power from it for roughly ten minutes. You can do that by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker. If that does not correct your cooling issue I would recommend contacting a professional to come out and diagnosis your appliance to avoid any unnecessary part purchases. -Matt

when the fan is not working. you cannot expect an ice cause the fan is to drive the cold to become an ice and to maintain the coldness.

You jard the liquids. Did you just move it a little or move like to another house because if you move a frig or freezer somewhere or lay on it's side you shouldn't plug in for an hour or more so it all settles or it won't work. Hope this helped

Well, unfortunately you arent very specific in your question. Remember, your looking for help online, and if you ask why your freezer wont get cold, which as you might guess is the most common problem with a refrigerator or freezer, you need to give me any and all symptoms you have. be specific. is it cold at all, or a little cold, what noises do or dont you hear, how long has it been this way, did you notice this after something occurred, i.e., you cleaned it, or moved it.

If you are referring to the evaporator fan motor located inside the freezer, if it is not running, then your symptoms would be cold food at the bottom of both sections, assuming its a side by side, and warm food at the top, both sides, also the icemaker wont make ice, and water likely wont come out the door. Depending on your brand, it could be the motor itself has burnt out, or possibly a bimetal thermostat, a cal rod heater, or an electronic control board.

take everything out of it, and let it thaw for 24 hours, using towels and whatever to clean up the water......then plug it back in, if it still does it, like 2 days later, it's broke, if it doesn't it was just the coil in the back that froze up. Happened to me.

Check your lower air shutter that lets cold air move from the freezer to the refrigerator's. You may have something blocking the air flow, food, plastic, etc... There should be a dial that opens, and closes the door.

Unplug the unit and leave it undisturbed for 24 hours. Plug the unit back in again and see if it will come to temp.

if the freezer is cold and the fridge is not then it can be several things. The freezer could have a bunrt out defrost heater, defrost timer faulty, fan not working in the freezer??. all of these things will stop your fridge getting cold, but your freezer will still be around minus 9 deg c. you wont get any air into the fridge as the coil in the freezer is prob all iced over. Dont worry about the heat on the door frame as it is only the anti sweat heater
