20 Most Recent Frigidaire FRS3R5EMB Side by Side Refrigerator - Page 9 Questions & Answers

Leaks are always some loose joints in the water drain or a possible pipe leak.
Now your observation to the leak is most important to the solution as a good view using a good lighting will allow you to get the first hand view to the issue.
I recommend that you get help to see the underside of the fridge using good lighting.
Once this is confirmed make sure if this is the drain defrosted tank or a flow line. If so drain and check, check if the defrost tray line is leaking from the water line. If so readjust or plug the leak.

Hello mcgannsplace - Try reprogramming the gas range by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. Wait approximately ten minutes and restart unit. If it proves to be ineffective, the range could possibly be experiencing a communication error with the EOC, wiring failure or faulty power cord/supply. Connect with a professional to accurately pinpoint any potentially more serious issues.

Hello Imillinor - A certified technician will need to properly diagnose and repair/install part.

Hello Jim czyryca - From what you are describing if the ice maker is not making ice but is dispensing water, sounds like the refrigerator has a frozen water line, faulty ice maker valve or bad component that sends power to the ice maker valve when needed. The ice maker cycles internally to call for water so I strongly suggest contacting a professional to move forward accurately to assist with the repairs.

Hi Rich Byhre - The heater on the ice maker is energized by an internal thermostat. If it is not cycling once the ice is frozen, then the refrigerator could possibly have a faulty ice maker or the mold is not getting cold enough. I strongly suggest contacting a professional to move forward and to assist with the repairs.

Hi Melody Pringle - From what you have described it sounds like the refrigerator is experiencing a communication error with the control board or wiring failure.

Hello Courtney Capelli - Try pressing and holding the CONTROL LOCK for approximately 20 seconds or unplugging the unit. Wait approximately ten minutes and restart refrigerator.

Hello Sheri Jarmolowicz - Typically this type of information is not release to someone who is not a technician and it is very rare to locate data on how to repaired parts. In most cases this information can be found on the internet; however it is not provided directly from the manufacturer due to liability reasons.

Hello orpheusingjap - From what you have describes it sounds like the damper door might be open causing the temperature to be too cold. Use a mirror to look at damper door at the rear of compartment and use a hair dryer on damper door to deice for 5 to 10 minutes. Allow 24 hours and if the temperature is still too cold, then I would have a professional look at the damper door for replacement.

I recently had a customer who had bad tasting ice. She'd had technicians from the place she purchased her fridge out, and they replaced the supply lines to the fridge, added water filters, but the problem persisted.The problem actually started under the house. The fridge is on a wall opposite the kitchen sink and the dishwasher, so it was the only thing using water at the end of a long run of copper line, about 10 to 12 feet of it. Since the ice maker doesn't cycle allot, the water in that line was getting stagnant. I ended up running a new line from a supply line in the adjacent room where the washer was. It was much shorter and didn't leave the fridge at the end of the line. And that was the end of her problem.Check the supply line under your home if you can. If there's no other way around it, but that it be at the end of a long run, try running a smaller line to reduce the amount of water that sits in the line, and flush it often. Hope this helps.

Hello - If your ice maker has stopped producing ice completely, try checking the following:

· It may be turned off. Look for the wire along the right side of the ice maker that looks a bit like a coat hanger. If the wire is in the raised position, the ice maker is turned off. If so, try one of these: If your ice maker has a small red plastic lever, lower it to lower the wire. If there's no plastic lever, simply lower the wire. In either case, the ice maker should begin producing ice again.

· Also make sure that the temperature is 8 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. If the freezer is too warm, the ice maker won't cycle properly.

· When was the last time the filter was changed? Most side-by-side filters are recommended to be change approximately every 6-9 months depending on your water usage and frequency. The ice maker fill tube may be blocked with ice or have a clogged water filter. If so, melt the blockage using a hair dryer-but be careful to not melt any plastic parts!

· Also replace the water shut-off valve or water-inlet valve, or both, if necessary. The ice maker head assembly may have broken parts. Look to see if the gears are broken. Check to see if the small plastic arms that rest against the ice rake are broken. If the ice maker head assembly is modular and you've found broken parts, you can just replace it.

Should these suggestions prove to be ineffective, contact a professional to move forward accurately.

Look at this.

Hello Virginia House - Usually this type of information is not release to someone who is not a technician (or to a consumer) and it is very rare to find enough information to do it yourself. In most cases this information can be found on the internet; however it is not provided directly from the manufacturer. Typically this is something that you want a certified professional to install for you due to safety and liability reasons. They also usually warranty their labor just in case something else may turn out to be the root cause of your initial problem and it does work out better to your advantage. Consider contacting your manufacturer for more details on who in your area can properly repair/install this part. (part usually have a 30 day warranty with tech). I would suggest contacting your manufacturer to provide you a listing of authorized technicians in your area whom may guide you through this process.

In most appliance solenoids, instead of having a stationary pin (nail in the illustration above) around which the coil of wire is wrapped, the coil is wrapped around a hollow tube. Through the center of this tube a metal armature is installed which is affected by the magnet field produced whenever power is supplied to the coil. This armature can be attached to levers to lock or open a door for example and powered via an electrical switch when needed to activate it. Here is the solenoid in case you need to order it.
