Once is started learning how to repair my appliances, I have saved 1000’s of dollars, videos like this have been such a blessing, dont be afraid to fix your own appliances, it is worth the time and these companies don’t care about Us, we need to take care of each other💪💪
Awesome job! My garage fridge just crapped out, in the heat of out Georgia, summer! So now, its time to start field testing it out! Thanks. Maybe it'll be something simple!? (But it rarely is...)
Go for it! 😁
Look at it this way. The guy that gave you the fridge helped hundreds of people that might not be able to afford a repairman or a new fridge and you my friend posted a great video that has saved people hundreds of dollars. So credit goes to you and the guy you got it from. Great video! Thanks so much!!
That first part you removed is not only a thermal overload protector. It is actually called a start relay. Instead of using a capacitor, there is a small round disk (semiconductor) inside the plastic shell that is called a thermistor. It allows voltage to run into the start winding of the compressor with no resistance at start up. The voltage running through the thermistor causes it to heat up rapidly which increases the resistance of the material that the thermistor is made out of, which stops voltage from continuing to pass through the start winding due to the high resistance. It's only allowing voltage to pass through long enough to start the compressor. It cools down when the compressor cycles off via the thermostat, and when it calls for cooling again, the thermistor is cooled off and allows voltage to pass through again to restart. Thermistors work good, but their lifespan isn't as good as other set ups.
Excellent info! 👍🏻
I have this fridge and replacing the defrost timer fixed everything. If I wasn't able to fix the fridge, my lady was going to want to buy a new $1,800 refrigerator. Thanks for saving me some money.
Bros before.....wives. ;)
This was a great video. My Frigidaire took a dump on me. I watched every video I could find, and he is right about having to try many things in order to find the problem. Then again, I had never worked on a fridge before. I got down to the thermostat, the knob on the front of the fridge. So, I took it off and went to a local appliance store that sells new and used stuff. They guy working there told me he had never seen one of those go bad before. He acted like he did not want to sell me the part, but he did. It took me awhile to get it back together. But it started working Now it stays at about 0 in the freezer and 38 in the fridge. Whereas it was around 30 in the fridge and freezing stuff or 40ish and ruining what was in there. My Thanks to you guys who take the time to make these videos and the time to explain what to look for and how to fix.
Glad to be of service!
You just saved my kid. It wasn't cooling and no matter how long it ran the compressor never kicked in. I turned my defrost timer like u said and Poof! Like magic it's cooling now. Thanks for the lesson
Awesome! Make sure you replace that timer ASAP, cause within 8 to 12 hours it’s gonna stall out again.
I have 1 just like this, came with a new home and it has never cooled, I turned the screw like you did. The coil fan came on but the compressor didn't, do you think a starter/relay will make the compressor come on ??
By chance I found your video and having the exact same refrigerator I followed your instructions. Since neither the compressor or fan was working I went directly and turned the defroster screw and it’s now working normal the same as in your video. I’m going to order a replacement part as you recommended. Thanks for your help through your video. I’m impressed.
Great!!!
Hey just wanted to say thank you. You're troubleshooting helped get my fridge back on without calling anyone. Appreciate it!
Awesome!!
People like you, are why I’m not even broker. Thank you lol 🙏🏼
Yay!! 😁
After a call to maintenance my fridge still wasn’t working. Watching this, it was as simple as resetting the timer
You my friend is a god send ..same thing happened to my fridigaire and your tip fixed it
Awesome!
Omg this video really helped. First of all it saved all my food and I got it working within 30 minutes
Awesome! 👏🏻
Great video! You mentioned power surges could blow out the parts which makes sense for our location but, we also have the issue that in the fall, being located in an unheated room with the room temperature around 30-40 degrees F, the freezer section defrosted and only blows warm air, plus the fridge doesn't cool. What parts could be affected in that scenario? Likely the defrost timer due to the room being so cold, or could that also affect the capacitor and/or relay? Now that it's spring, we have to repair.
thank you Josh Cobb
You're welcome!
You nailed my issue perfectly! Thanks for sharing!
9:15 that was exactly what was wrong with the fridge thank you so much!!!!! The wife is happy…. Sorry I took all the credit thanks again
She’s alive again! Thanks!!
Yay!! Great news!
You fixed my fridge. Well, I fixed it but you made it possible!
You just save me a new fridge u are the best
Great video. This solved my problem with a bad defrost timer. Thanks!
Thank you sir, it was the timer that went out!!
Great glad you got it sorted out!!
Excellent brother you saved me some $$$. Thanks
Haha the bulbs dont work because they blew i guess when i put the power back on.. weird! Thanks for the reply again! Going to try to get to the back and clean the coils like u said!
Very good video! Much appreciated! Thank you Josh!
Big thanks Josh! I got a kiss from my wife when our fridge back on with your fix tip. Good man. I Subscribed.
Yay!! Glad to help!
This video help me to fix the same problem. Its owesone. its great. THANK YOU
Best video on the UTUBE
A single reversible 5/16 & 1/4 malco bit does wonders 👍🏾
Thanks for the tip!!
Thanks for the help.
No worries!
My daughter bought one of the Fridges at LOWES and it doesn't work! She has been getting the run around on trying to get a new one as the Repair man has come out and said it doesn't work. for anyone reading this ...if the fridge smells like vinegar that means the Freon has leaked and fridge will not be cold. Still waiting for a new fridge. its been weeks since purchase. This is not good customer service. DONT BUY FRIDAIRE
My fridaire SUCKS TOO
The same thing happened to me
Similar
Don't buy amana😢 they r junk
Washing machine 😊
Same thing here with my $600 dollar purchase price 🤷🏽
You could buy a shelf for that freezer section to give you more space/ organization
I have a Frigidaire refrigerator and it doesn’t get cold and been like this for a month or so. Don’t feel like spending $700 or more. The fan in the back is working. Hope you are right with mine👍👍👍
Awesome video! You're like the Fridge Whisperer ") Question, would our side-by-side doors Frigidaire with water/ice dispenser have the same parts as you mentioned in your video? We live in an area where our electricity can have numerous power surge throughout the week. The fridge will run with no issues throughout the night and the next day, everything is thawing out and not running. Subscribed by the way! Thanks 👍
Parts are going to be different inside, but probably the same on the compressor.
Man! Thank you sooo much! You saved me a lot of money!
Yay!! More money for Pizza! 🤣
Hello, I really appreciate you taking out time to do this. Please I have a refrigerator that the freezer part is super freezing but the cooling part is not cooling at all, how should I go about it, thanks
I have the same fridge that I just purchased new Oct 23. Last month the freezer was cold, but fridge was 60. Under warranty called for service (reviews were horrible for the service company). Tech pulled back wall of the freezer off to find it frozen. He replaced a motor in there and had me let the freezer defrost for 48 hours. Three weeks later, the freezer went from 0 to 10 and the fridge is 65. I do not want that service company again.
Sounds like either a drain clog and water backup issue, or low freon will also cause a buildup in the freezer over time.
A good idea is to add 50ml of sulphuric acid to the compressor before regassing to reduce corrosion
Thanks so much! worked like a charm.
Thank you that fixed my fridge..?
It's inside of that part you're holding ,together with the overload protector. It's a piezo type of a starting part of a motor.
Is the thermostat switch inside open? If it's turn -of then it won't work. Only the light will work.
Any response to below? Also you mentioned that had you noticed that the fan was running when the compressor wasn't, you would have dove into the start relay. If our compressor isn't running but the fan(s) are, even after turning the defrost switch, is it still the start relay or could it be something else?
It's either going to be the start relay or the compressor itself. If you replace the start relay and the compressor still won't turn over then it's a bad compressor. Definitely best to start with the relay. However you can do a ground test to make sure none of the three pins are shorted to ground on the compressor. If any one of the three have continuity to ground the compressor is bad.
All fridges are utter garbage nowadays. The last two fridges I have owned went out in under 3 years. On my first fridge, the guy said he could fix it, but it would cost twice what the fridge cost me new (lol). He said just to buy a new one. Well the one I bought to replace it lasted 2.5 years. So I called another repairman to see if it could be fixed. He came out and said it couldn't be fixed and that I needed a new one yet again. Why does this happen? Because the environmental laws change about every year and manufacturers are having to make fridges with cheaper and cheaper parts that don't last.
Nailed it.
Interesting
THANK YOU
You're welcome!
So when you put in the new timer, let it cool off , then do you have to turn the timer through 2 cycles for it to operate properly?
I typically just make sure it’s on and running, give it 12 - 24 hours to get back down to temp.
I'm having a problem with my fridge that started the other day.. 1 side of the freezer had ice built up.. so I popped the ice off, and ever since the freezer is blowing cold on one side... but the other side isn't blowing cold... the refrigerator isn't staying cold at all, but you can hear and feel air coming out.. also my fan behind the fridge is working. I cleaned the dust out, and I'm still having a problem. Do you have any suggestions at all?
In the Freezer, there's this little piece of plastic you can pop off, and it shows you the cooling tube, which is cold, but I'm stuck there, and idk what to do next...
Very informative! I have - I believe - the same model fridge and have been running into defrost issues for a bit now. I’ll defrost the fridge in full, it’ll work just fine for about a month, and then it’ll frost back over and the fridge is 50 degrees. I replaced the timer, the coil appears to be working, and the thermostat doesn’t seem to be bulging or defective. Would you recommend replacing that same piece in the back as a long term solution?
If you are sure the defrost timer and heater are working, the only other thing that would cause the coils to frost up so much that they freeze over is low Freon issue. Did you check to make sure the drain isn’t clogged and the water is able to drain out of the freezer after it defrosts? This issue normally causes a wall of ice, not frost tho. Hope that helps!
OK! My exact model fridge! I defrosted it last week - all good. NOW fridge is not cooling again. At least I have good guidelines to work from. Thanks ( I hope)
if freezer is cold but the bottom fridge is not, does that meant condenser fan and compressor and starter device are all good? now I should just focusing on defrust timer and evaporator fan?
I have this problem, except I can’t find the defrost timer
If the freezer is cold, like it’s supposed to be, and you might have a fan issue, either it’s week or not working getting powerful enough to blow the air down into the fridge. Might check that.
My mother's Frigidaire just gave out after 7 years. The compressor and fan are working, but it's not cool. Hopefully, it's the relay!
Same with mine thats about 8 years old. They just aren't good refirgerators.
17:56 - I think, by “calm down” here, you mean to allow the refrigerant pressures to equalize through the capillary tube metering device so there’s no undue load on the compressor when it starts again.
Hi! I have the same exact fridge. What do I need to do if the top of my fridge is cooling/ freezing but the bottom is cool/ warm?
Would that defrost timer be the same culprit in just a stand alone fridge? Or is there something else? Our fridge works but it is not getting and staying cold. Had the door seal replaced and seemed to make it cooler but still gets warm.
Any recommendations of this same fridge leaking water in the bottom? I have no idea where it comes from but just pools at the bottom. Thank you in advance.
Inside the fridge or outside on the floor?
When you plug the new part in first, then plug in the refrigerator then wait 20 minutes and it should be working?
Yep, or 30 minutes depending on the timer setting
We have checked the thermostat, compressor, compasitor, and start relay. All are functioning but we're still not getting the fridge or freezer to cool it's the same model as this. Is there anything else that could be malfunctioning?
Did you get it figured out ? My fridge is found the same exact thing
Can you post a link to the first part you replaced on the compressor? I think that’s the issue I’m having
Thank you so much!!!
Hey I like your video sample and to de point, you set ther and tell all your problems!!!!! 😄 🤣 thanks
Thank you!
I think it fixed mine thanks
Awesome good job!
Thanks for your post very well done excellent delivery. I’m looking for a solution to a used GE fridge French door bottom ice maker water dispenser inside fridge . We changed compressor, control board, sensors and then found the wire to a sensor in fridge was cut. Replaced that sensor and the freezer works perfectly and the fridge won’t. Home warranty now won’t come back so I started working on it and found masking tape Accross the air holes for the drawer sections took it off and then checked the damper door. It will close but won’t open back up? Any suggestions on what to check next? Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks
Sounds like a barrel of bolts my friend….hope you figured it out!
My fridge stopped working all of a sudden. I heard a weird pop and then it went silent. I knew something was wrong. So I took your advice and put a screwdriver in the hole and i heard the fan kick in and its ice cold again! Should i still replace the defrost timer?
Yes cause after the timer makes its way back to that spot it could stall out again....or eventually.
I have the same fridge but lately, it has not been cooling to temp that great. The motor is turning on and off. I wonder if it has the same timer issue?
First thing I would check if it's working just not working that great is to clean out all the coils on the bottom of the fridge. Sometimes you can achieve this by taking the front panel off the bottom and getting a slim vacuum hose in there or taking the back panel off and vacuuming all that out as well. If this gets super clogged up it will make a difference.
than its time for a new one !
I have a refrigerator just like this one and it just stopped freezing and cooling, any idea of what the problem would be? Thanks in advance for any help it would be greatly appreciated!
Could be a whole host of issues. I would start process elimination.
My refrigerator had the same symptoms as yours. I have replaced the defrost timer and can get the refrigerator to run, but after a while it stops and doesn't come back on.
Any ideas?
I would check the start relay on the compressor and make sure it’s not burnt out. Could be your compressor overheating or shorting out. Could also be a bad thermostat.
I have a frigidaire freezer and always tripping the gfci outlet. The freezer will run continously for several hours and will stop and then immediately trip the outlet, this is a dedicated outlet. Pseg technician have change so many parts already namely control panel, thermistor and a white square part sitting near the compressor but back with same problem for the 5 visits. When they open the evaporative, fan cover I noticed ice build up in the evaporative coil. Pls help and thank you
My best guess would be either the compressor is starting to go out and pushing more amps than it’s supposed to, or you might be low on Freon, causing the compressor to run more than it’s supposed to. I have had this problem in the past and best I could do was swap my gfci outlet to a standard outlet, and cross your fingers that it doesn’t trip the breaker. But if I’ve done this 10 times, 10 times it’s been successful. The problem might lie in your outlet.
My frigidaire gallery refrigerator is not cooling like it should. The compressor kicks on, the fans work and it has freon. When I hold down the buttons on the front of it on the door to start the defrost mode. After it runs the mode, it will get colder. But then the temp goes back up to 70 in the refrigerator part and around 60 in the freezer. If I do the defrost several times in a row, it gets cold but after an hour or so. It goes back up in temp. I unplugged it and left it off for several days. I plugged it back up last night and it dropped in temp from 80 to 70 but that's as cool as it got. I did the defrost mode on it, and the temp went down to 60. But it goes right back up. What could be the issue? I am lost on what to look up to fix it. I replaced the fan inside the freezer. It stopped working. And I learned how to put freon in. Now this issue. 🤦♀️ please help me. 🙏
I have a WRT318FZDM02 I removed the evaporator cover and there is a big block of ice on the right upper side, the freezer cold but doesn’t freeze and the lower half will not get very cold. What suggestions would you give me for repairs.
Big block of ice is either caused by a clogged drain and the water backs up and freezes, very common, or it’s low on Freon and constantly running which can cause and ice build up too. Also could be a bad defrost heater.
So did you have to replace the timer?
Sorry, but I’m confused with the dial thing. It clicked, and I heard something running. But I didn’t feel air still. Whenever I went to the back, unplugged then plugged it back in, I saw the fan running, then I heard that black tin click. I don’t understand which one is broken.
Sounds like both might be malfunctioning. But you also can't plug it right back in or you will overload the compressor. Need to wait 10 minutes before plugging it back in.
At the plug in at 2230 the light looked like it surged bright then it dimmed down
My refrigerator doesnt work. The fridge stay at a low cool to where my milk goes bad and things arent cold but cool? My freezer isnt freezing. Thats where i keep my milk, butter, dairy stuff, deli meats and i have to put my meats in the deep freezer i have. You also said not to plug your refrigerator in too soon after unplugging because it could cause the circuit to trip? What about if there is a power outage?
I have a similar fridge that the compressor runs, fan on back works, everything is clean, the coils had a little frost but nothing major, the fan in the freezer works but does seem like its not spining very fast and turning it by hand it doesnt seem to spin completely freely. The freezer is around 20 degrees and fridge is 48. Any help would be very appreciated.
I’d start with that fan then. Those are pretty safe to get on Amazon.
My old one stopped working I wish that I seen this video, but got a used one for now has.been used for a year but it was working before I got it, how long does it take to get it to be cold ? Or what to do before I do,
They say to allow a full 12 to 24 hours for it to reach optimal temperature. You should see a considerable coldness after 6 hours.
@@joshcobb4100 thank you for the info, we just pug it in, thanks 👍
I have that same fridge my freezer gets cold but won't freeze. And the fridge part just barely gets little colder than room temp. Both fans are running. Compressor working fine. I've watched hundreds of videos and can't figure it out. Any ideas?
Oh no! I hope you find the problem of why your freezer gets cold but won't freeze.
I think I have the same issue. Did you find a solution?
The problem could be that either the evaporator is frozen, the defrost heater needs to be replaced, the thermostat needs to be replaced, it needs Freon or there could be too much food inside.
I have the same refrigerator, the freezer is working fine but the bottom of the refrigerator doesn't drop below 52 degrees. Any advice for me?
Nine times out of 10 This is an issue with the fan, not blowing the air down into the refrigerator compartment. If your fan is running, then the damper might be stuck closed. I would check those two things first.
@@joshcobb4100 I'll check those 2 things tomorrow, Thanks for the quick reply.
My frigidaire refrigerator is getting cold in freezer but not in bottom part. What should I do?
Check the fan
Hello.I just had a question and I hope it's not silly but if I plug in the power cord and the cold control knob is set to the off position would the condenser fan by the compressor still be on(turning) although I have the temp control knob inside the fridge set to off.
Mine was doing the same thing, u changed the relay and capacitor, still the compressor not running,
Idk if i should order the thermos. or not .
Hey man, i got a frigidear 2008 that im trying to save.. id appreciate ur wisdom! The fridge wasnt cooling past 45 but freezer was neg 0 .. i powered off by turning the breaker off because its a small kitchen and hard to get to the plug.. i took off back and felt it wasnt iced up blocking the tube for the fan to blow. So i out everything back and switched it back on and now the fridge light wont come on and can hardly feel the fan blowing.. i tried to reset it opening both doors for twenty minutes then switching the power back on at the fuse panel and still not on… any advice?
That’s odd…maybe a damaged plug? Or damaged outlet? Sounds like it’s a pain to get that fridge out but the original issue might have been a buildup of dust bunnies on the coils underneath the back of the fridge.
@@joshcobb4100 thanks for the reply big guy! sorry i didnt word it out as well as i thought because my gf was yelling in my ear! Sorry lol.. ok i shut off the fridge at the breaker panel to see if i had ice buildup at the tube for the air flow to hit fridge because the freezer was pumping at neg 2 but the fridge was at 45/46 degrees.. before i shut off the fridge i felt some air coming from the fan in the fridge but it was hard air.. when i put the power back on the freezer is working still but now the fridge lights arent working it its hardly blowing any air inside.. i also unclipped the power to ice cube maker and not going to put it back because we never used it and it gives me more space for the freezer. Could that be the reason why the fridge lights arent working now? Like an open line or something? Or it doesn’t matter? I’m sorry for the ton of q’s!! But im mentally handicapped lol! I will take it out and clean the dust though like u said maybe thats why its not cooling
jjajjaajajajajjaa maybe the compresor goes to take a coffee...... waiting for nieces diagnostisc
Yeah.....that.
Hello, can the defrost timer cause the clicks every 20 minutes or so,even if the fridge was allowed to cool for 30 minutes, then powered back up,?
I have a whirlpool side by side
I can turn screw on defrost timer and it comes on and cools great
Or I can just tap on it and it comes on
Is it a bad defrost timer ???
My fridge works, but the freezer not. Would this cause the same issue?
That’s backwards for most issues, I would check the fan in the freezer.
I have frigidaire model frs26lh5ds2 the upper part of the fridge & freezer are not working but the lawer part in both are okay? What is the problem ? How to repair?
Hey good video working on a fridge just like that except it has a small circuit board instead of a timer got a new on replaced it and the fridge comes on and then shuts down after 2 minutes of running any thoughts would be nice thanks
Check the overload relay on the compressor.
I have same model. the freezer is working but the fridge is not cooling properly. Any advice?
I turned the timer with screwdriver and it is working. went down to 33
Do I need to turn it back now?
Replace the timer.
@@joshcobb4100 done ;) ty for saving my fridge. am poor really appreciate you
My fridge upper fan is not working so that the down side is warm.
Hey i have the same type top freezes bottom is not cold as it should how does the air get down to the bottom?
Fan in the freezer should be powerful enough to blow the air down there. Make sure your fan is running, and running good 👍
Just saved me and the wife from spending 100s on a new fridge bro ! Defrost timer was stuck
Awesome! Make sure you replace the timer soon because it’s likely to stall out again once it hits that 12 hour mark again.
Got it ! I subscribed to your channel too man keep it up !
@dondieJuan thanks 🙏
I have the same fridge like the one in your video first the light went out so I put a new switch it didn’t solve the problem so I can live with that now I have a frost build up in the freezer so I did what you did in the video so I got the new defrost timer it work for awhile then again it started to build frost so I checked the defrost. Coils it works and the defrost fan is working I was told that wires maybe bad and the new defrost timer???
Shoot some air down into the drain and see if it’s clogged. If it’s not clogged, you might be low on Freon.
@@joshcobb4100how would we replace Freon?
Only an EPA certified technician should do that.
I have this exact refrigerator in my garage , recently it stopped cooling but the freezer still works. What could be the problem?
Thank you in advance.
Freezer fan quit. Check and see if you hear the fan blowing in the freezer.
What is my freezer is working but the frig compartment is not getting very cold?
Check your fan, make sure the vents aren't blocked.
Could the defrost dial still be the issue if the cooling won’t work even after the click? (I haven’t checked the first thing you diagnosed yet because the fridge is next to the wall FYI)
Unlikely….probably the first thing.
hey josh my fridge is runing but not cooling or getting cold what could be the problem
Sooooo many things.
What a run capacitor cause the refrigerator to be completely dead no power all the lights are out
No.
My refigirator fan moving back and forth but not running with complete circles, can you help ???
Can u help. The bottom part works fine but top part not freezing food but it's cold....
Start by cleaning the coils behind and underneath the unit.
@joshcobb4100 Thank you I will check it out. I do this before I go buy one
