Frigidaire freezer not working after power outage. Model number FFFH17F1RW1

Tried resetting it by unplugging it for 15 minutes. Plugged it back in, waited a couple hours and checked it again. Does not seem to be working. The interior light is working. Is there anything else that I could check.

SOURCE: refrigerator buzzing for 10 seconds every 4 or 5 minutes

I think you hit it right on the head. The start device is likely bad and trys to start the compressor (but can't) and it then overheats. If this type has a small white box on the left side of the compressor, take it off and shake it to see if it makes noise and debris falls out. That's the culprit. One more thing though, if your compressor has a decal with a little blue indian head drawing on it the compressor is also dead, otherwise you can just change the start device out and you should be good to go! There's a kit that replaces that type start device, comes with a new start device and overload along with the proper jumpers, etc. and it's REAL easy to install by yourself.

SOURCE: Power light flashing/ no picture

I have the same problem. The only way to get the TV to come on is to unplug it, but once you get it back on it turns itself off again in a few minutes.

SOURCE: Freezer Problem

If it started to cool again the compressor was running. Check the condenser and make sure it is clean. Provide as much air movement through the garage as possible . 100 degrees is a high temperature to be operating a refrigerator in.

try unplugging it and leaving it unplugged for a while. 15 minutes maybe? Leave door closed so it stays relatively cold. It should reset the unit.

Freezer stopped after power outage

If the sides are hot, look at the defrost timer. Sounds like it has stopped running with the defrost elements on. The compressor has a safety switch on it that opens either if the compressor gets too hot or if it pulls too much current when starting. If your power flickered a lot before coming back on, that triggered the safety switch. Now that it's running normally, I wouldn't worry. The defrost timer is your problem now.

Ok, upright freezer, frigidaire, read -12 after power outage but working ok..when I tried to reset temp to 0, light went off, freezer went off, front display reads 56..any ideas?

Thank you for your post, Cynthia!

Based off the information you have provided your Frigidaire freezer is not cooling properly and is now displaying the temperature of 56. It sounds like your freezer is not on, even though it has power the compressor is not turned on. I would suggest pressing either the down or up arrow three times within five seconds. That should power on your compressor and it should start cooling properly. I hope this is helpful and if you should need further assistance please feel free to reconnect. -Matt

How to reset a samsung refrigerator model number rs261mdpn aftthea power outage

http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-number/Samsung-Parts/Refrigerator-Parts/DA41-00669A/0046/401/Model-RS261MDPNXAA/1482/0165000


this is the control board you will need for your model if unplugging the unit for 5 minutes doesn't fix the problem. If they are LED lights, then I point my finger at this. This is a plug and play board with molex connectors. Very easy to install with unit unplugged. You can manually reset the display and check for error codes by holding the top left and top right button on your user interface for 5 seconds in unison FOR 5 or more seconds after all the lights flash.

Frigidaire fridge will not stop beeping and will not turn on

The only thing that I know could be causing the problems is the=> 5303918476 Defrost Control Board
3_25_2013_12_54_31_pm.jpg

This part is behind the control panel inside the fresh food section where you adjust the temperatures. Let me know if you have questions, Thanks Sea Breeze
You obviously have the wrong model number listed on your post. ?? What is the correct model number listed on your model? The model mentioned in your post has mechanical thermostat and yours has didital.

I had the same problem everyone else is having with my samsung model RS2534WW refridgerator. After a power outage the freezer failed but the fridge worked fine. Then another outage and both sides quit...

I had a similar problem also after a power outage, I called best buy for service and 200 bucks later it was a no go, same problem. I found a repair manual on the online auction place E b a y and was able to troubleshoot down to a faulty relay on the PCB, look there for the manual it may help you. I is not the compressor cause then the freezer would not work also.
