Fridge keeps freezing everything!

Hi, my fridge/freezer is just over a year old and also just out of warranty :( the fridge part freezes everything regardless of what temperature setting i put it on! If i put it to the lowest temperature, the light goes off and it goes into shut down mode but as soon as I turn it up slightly it goes back to freezing everything!!!!!
Can anyone help me please as Im a strapped for cash single mum and could really do without the added cost of a repair man!!!
many thanks all!

You need a damper door and thermostat asm. the door that allows the cool air in is just staying open that is air from freezer and if open all the time will cause your freezing temp in refrig section you can take some tape and cover 3/4 of the grill where you feel air coming out in the frig section to help slow the air it is in the top left hand corner in the back you will feel air. should get you until you can get a repair man.

My whirlpool gold refridgerator- w/freezer on bottom- is less than 1 yr old and has started freezing everything in the fridge.

The temperature thermistor may need to be replaced. If under a year old should be covered under warranty.

My daughter's mini fridge has a freezer compartment. Her issue is, if she turns it up high enough so the freezer freezes, the fridge compartment also freezes everything; if she turns it down so that the...

This is a drawback of most mini-fridges. Start by defrosting everything. Then fill ice cube trays with water and keep lowering the setting until the water freezes. Just go a little lower, no more. Fridge should not freeze food. If the fridge stays closed all the time food will freeze. Also if the freezer element gets ice buildup it must be defrosted. Not automatic like home fridge. Most kids today weren't born when the last fridges that had to be defrosted were in service.

FRE196AS frigidaire fridge/freezer - fridge freezes everything!

Hello Nicola,
I suggest you contact Frigidaire in the UK, and explain the problem to them. I have included their website for you to do so. You can even call them. I checked with Frigidaire in the US and Customer Service tells me your fridge should not be failing at this point. Contact Customer Service and tell them how disappointed you are in the product; explain the issue; and insist they offer assistance to repair it. Frigidaire Customer Service here does not want to lose any customers, and that includes you. Be nice, but firm with them. I hope this helps you in some way. Let me know if I can further assist. Just trying to to help. :)
