Refrigerator won't cool. Freezer works fine!

Freezer side operates properly: holds temperature, etc. Refrigerator side won't go below 50 degrees F, even when set to coldest setting. Meat storage drawer shows aboout 50. We've emptied refrigerator side, and don't see any blockage. Don't both freezer and refrigerator opeerate on same refrigeration compressor and coolant? Thannks for your help

    The fridge side is not cooling below 60 degrees. The freezer seems to working except it drains onto the floor occasionally. The fridge will cool down to about 34 degrees every couple of weeks en will steadily climb back to 60ish over a week or so. Do I have a low coolant charge?

Pierce, there was a service bullitin put out on this model. TDR-0010A-B. Had to do with normal freezer, warm fresh food compartment. Maytag issued a kit that included a new thermostat and damper assy. to solve this problem. Bullitin came out in 2002. If you are not having a defrost issue and all fans are running normal, I would call Maytag and inquire about the above posted bullitin, It may be covered. Catriver...post back.

Sometimes there is a lever on the bottom left hand side of the refridgerator side that lets cool air form the freezer in --it may have gotten closed. Check to make sure it is open. Also this happened to us--we emptied fridge-turned it off for 2 days and then it was fine.

Whirlpool 6 sense model WSC5513- A+ X side by side, without ice or water dispenser. Refrigerator part not cooling properly. Temperature setting is -18 degrees Celsius for the freezer and 2 degrees...

The temp for the fridge is about right and -18 for the freezer is ok so check to see if the water filter is plugged, at 8 degrees Celsius is about 18 degrees fht. Which is freezing so the numbers don't add up. 26 degrees below zero on the freezer side is what you want if it that cold it could have frozen the water line.

Refrigerator will not maintain proper temperature

Check in the back of the fridge section; there is normally a control that is provided for 'balancing' the cold air between the two sections. That coolled air is distributed by a concealed fan that may not be running; you should be able to ear or feel the air movement when the unit is in a cooling cycle.
