Chosen Solution
Hi everyone, I have a Frigidaire Refrigerator model # FFTR2021TD2. It is only two years old. Got it for free because it doesn’t get cold or freeze. Replaced the relay so far and now the compressor is hot. (It wasn’t before) Coils are clean, fans are running, lights are on. I can hear water running through the system too. What’s the next thing that could be the problem? The run capacitor? Thank you!
Temperature Control Thermostat The temperature control thermostat directs voltage to the compressor, evaporator fan motor, and condenser fan motor (if applicable). If the temperature control thermostat is not working properly, it may prevent the refrigerant system from running. To determine if the thermostat is defective, rotate the thermostat from the lowest setting to the highest setting and listen for a click. If the thermostat clicks, it is not likely defective. If the thermostat does not click, use a multimeter to test the thermostat for continuity. If the temperature control thermostat does not have continuity at any setting, replace it. Temperature Control Board The temperature control board provides voltage to the compressor and fan motors. If the temperature control board is defective, it will stop sending voltage to the cooling system. However, this is not a common occurrence. Control boards are often misdiagnosed—before replacing the control board, first test all of the more commonly defective components. If none of the other components are defective, consider replacing the temperature control board.
