How do I replace freezer thermistor

its in the freezer near the top if its not cooling I would check ur air damper flow control, is it to far close or opened? check the cold control thermostat, the thermistors. and of course the fan itself, check door seals.

It doesn't work at all
It's not cooling
It cools poorly or it's all iced up
It's noisy
It doesn't cycle off
Hope this may help you;

If further adjustments cannot be made to the thermostat, the next step would be to replace the thermostat or if so equipped, the temperature thermistor.

the ptc overload relay on the compressor is bad and needs replacing unplug it off the compressor body and get an exact replacement for your model

The thermistor has probably failed. I had the same problem with my FF92s fridge/freezer. I replaced the thermistor and hey presto it works again.
The thermistor is loacted behind a removable panel inside the freezer section of the fridge/freezer. You also have to remove a polystyrene cover and a further metal cover to get tp the thermistor. Pull the metal cover from the left as it has wires attached to it on the right hand side. The thermistor is available to buy online, just google it.

the fan is locted in the freezer and it blows up to the ref and it sounds like the fan quit working and needs replace to check it the be for sure take the back panel off and with the ref running test the leads to the motor and make sure you have 110 volts if you do it is a bad motor

I have a Kenmore w/ freezer on bottom. The top vent in the fridge is ducted to the freezer and is supposed to blow air. Mine was not.

I removed all the frozen goods and took off the back panel (inside to unit) which had a little ice on it. Underneath the panel was a solid wall of ice......including the motor which is supposed to blow air up to the 'fridge. I'd bet a beer that is your problem as well.

The ice seized motor will not be harmed because it is resistance loaded.

The best part is with a blow dryer and some elbow grease...the fix is free! I hope it helps.

Ice build-up inside refrigerator and cycling switch not functioning. Requires technician to take apart inside of refrigerator, clear ice and replace switch. Took my repair man about half hour to fix.

Check the damper in the top back of the fresh food section. make sure that it is open and air is coming through it.

Hello dunc444444
Welcome,
You said, Bottom freezer works fine, but upper refrigerator has no cold air

Is your freezer so full that it is packed to the top especially in the rear?
Refrigerators and freezers share the air from the compressor and travel through vents in the rear of the freezer and fridge.
Sometimes it can effect the cooling in the fridge if the freezer articles block the vents!


The water overfilling in the ice maker is an ice maker problem only.
When we install an ice maker there is a short white plastic tube that we push through the rear
hole of the fridge which supply's the water to the maker, the outside water line attaches to this.
That tube we push through the fridge must go in till it stops. And empties in to a little sistran at the rear of the ice maker. Make sure it did not sip out or backwards a little when you may have moved
rolled the fridge out to clean under it!


Also you need periodically to remove the front grill down in front of the fridge and gently run a refrigerator brush under the coils to clean out the dust that may block air flow over the coils.(the coils are metal black tubes that run back and forth along the bottom of your fridge.
The vacuum will not reach in to that tight space. That's why they make a special brush for this chore.
Let me know how you do?
