I purchased a frigidare gallery french door with water and ice in the door. Model # FGHB2844LF . The water is no colder than the tap water, about 66 degree. We have the refrigerator set at 34 degree. Why is the water at the door not colder??????? Is there something wrong with this unit, or is this all the better it gets. very POOR excuse for a waer cooler.

Should be water storage behind the crisper drawer, you should be able to see it if you pull the drawer all the way out.
This refrigerator was not very well thought of when it was new. it only got 2.5 stars on the AJ Madison site.

SOURCE: Everything freezes in the refrigerator

Your damper that controls the air to the fridge side is stuck open. It can be caused by moisture getting on it and freezing it so it wont close or by a failure in the electrical circuit that controls it. There was a service bulletin from about 3-4 years ago about defective control assemblys. I have replaced several and as far as I know Frigidaire is still replacing some of them for free if they fall under the model and serial numbers that were affected.
You can tell if it is frozen by turning the controls off and thawing the damper at the upper left rear of the fridge section with a hair dryer.. After you have it thawed out, turn the controls back on and you should hear the damper door motor running. Keep your thermometer in it and check it after a while and see if it shuts off before it freezes.
Post back with the complete model and serial numbers and I will try to locate the service bulletin at my shop computer tomorrow.

SOURCE: water dispenser on front of refrigerator door does not dispense water. Ice Cube maker continues to make ice cubes. Defrosting doesn't fix problem.

Water dispensing solenoid is bad. You need to replace the solenoid valve. This typically is independent of the ice maker.

SOURCE: Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator, evaporator fan not running

As insignificant as it may seem, that evap fan motor is as important as petrol in a car. That fan controls the fridge cooling on many fridges and circulation in tha freezer compartment. Replace it with the correct one and you should see a functional fridge/ freezer again. Note, i wouldnt run unit without it for long, as condensig temperatures run high and compressors dont last long.

SOURCE: top freezer - not freezing

Hi,

Many times a freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many other things that can go wrong.


If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing then check out the last two tips.

If your refrigerator is running but warm, then...

Check out these tips that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...

Are you tray to "reset" the unit; disconnected power few minutes (five before to reconnected again).

If the problem come on again, try to set the temp manually accordign the User Guide.

Where is the water tube to see if its frozen FGHB2844LF5 dbl door bottom frezzer

Hello Wally, thanks for your post!
Based off the information you have provided you would like to know the location of the water line inside of your Frigidaire refrigerator. The water line is located within the wall of your refrigerator it is not accessible. The best way to clear out a frozen water line is to disconnect power from the refrigerator for at least two to three hours. This will help defrost any ice build-up within the refrigerator. I hope this information is helpful to you. -Matt

French door water is too warm

Good Afternoon friend, thanks for your post!
With a French door refrigerator the water will come directly from your tap. If you would like to have the water colder you may need to run your faucet to allow the water to become colder before getting from your water dispenser. I hope this information is helpful. -Matt

Frigidaire French doors not making enough ice .

Hello friend, thank you for your post!

I understand that your Frigidaire refrigerator is not producing enough ice. I would advise to check and make sure that your water filter has a secure connection, if need be uninstall and reinstall the water filter to assure connection. Your filter should be changed every six months, if it is has not been changed recently I would recommend exchanging it.

If you continue to receive low ice production it could be an issue with your water line or water valve, I would seek assistance from a professional for proper diagnose and repair of your appliance. I hope this helps. -Matt

WATER FILTER WILL NOT ENGAGE

Hi friend, I appreciate your post!

I see your question is labeled under Frigidaire refrigerator, FGHB2844LF, and you are having difficulty engaging the water filter. Based off that model you should be able to push on the face of the water filter and slide the old cartridge out. First, to install the new cartridge you would need to remove the caps off of it. Secondly, using the alignment guide slide the new filter into the housing until it stops against the snap-in connector. Thirdly, push firmly until you hear the click which indicates that your filter has been engaged. Lastly press a glass against the water dispenser to verify no leaks are present at the filter housing. Hope this helps. -Matt

How do you take out the ice maker?

Good Afternoon Chris,

I understand you want to know how to take the ice maker out of your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# FGHB2844LF. If you are referring to the ice bin, that holds the ice, you will simply pull it straight out. If you are trying to replace the ice maker, this is not usually a do it yourself repair, as there are no step by step instruction manuals. I suggest contacting your local authorized technician if you are trying to replace the whole ice maker. They have been trained on your specific appliance, and should be able to replace the ice maker with ease. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

FGHB2844LF water dispenser not working

Turn the temp down on the refrigerator side but not below freezing. Some frigs have a "trap" set up for the water dispenser. its located behind a panel in the frig and it is there to help chill the water before it dispenses. if the frig setting is too cold then it can freeze the water .

Does the LGLFC20760ST refrigerator come with water/ice dispenser on the door?

Hi and Welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly
This refrigerator does not have in-door ice feature. It also does not have a water filtration system. You should install an external water filter on your ice maker water supply line if you purchase this unit.
Unit details can be found here:
http://www.lg.com/us/appliances/refrigerators/LG-french-3-door-refrigerator-LFC20760ST.jsp

Make sure to click on the drop down menus lower on the page for EACH section using the specifications tab.

Also if you choose the Gallery tab you will see there is not an in door ice feature.

Thanks for choosing FixYa,
Kelly
