Did you check the motor and/or damper mechanism that directs cold freezer air into the refrigerator portion. If that is messed up the freezer is ok but fridge is ng. Also look at door seals for proper sealing.

I have had the same problem, and can't fix it at the refrigerator. You need an presure reglator or bladder on your hot water heater. when you have to much pressure it usually starts causeing problems at the hot water heater with leaks and works its way down in other areas of the house. We put a regulator at our water meter at first and it did not help.. if it is leaking at your fidge, you may want to check other appliances. Hope this helps

What is the water line that you would like to install is it attaching to the refrigerator your question or is it a water line that goes under the refrigerator and to the dispenser or the ice maker? Is the model number of the refrigerator correct within your post? Appliance 911 Sea Breeze

Hello Chuck, thank you for your post! From the information you have provided you are receiving low water pressure at the dispenser on your Frigidaire refrigerator. This could be due to a dirty or clogged filter and I would check to see when you last replaced it. I have researched model FRS3R5EMB and show the water filter is part number WFCB. If you have changed your filter within the past six or nine months the low pressure could be due to an obstruction within the water line or an issue within the dispenser. Since it could be anyone of these underlying issues I would recommend having a professional technician out to perform a proper diagnosis and repair. This will help you to avoid any unnecessary part purchases. I hope that this information is helpful to you. -Matt

Hello Gladys, thanks for your submission! I understand that your Frigidaire refrigerator is not sealing properly. You could be experiencing an issue with the gasket or the hinges. I would suggest checking the door hinges to assure that they are secure in position. You can also use a dollar bill to test the door gasket. Place a dollar bill in between the door and the body of the refrigerator. If the dollar bill pulls out with no to little resistance, you may need to replace the door gasket. I hope that this information is helpful to your repair. -Matt

Good Morning Brett, thanks for your inquiry!

I understand that your Frigidaire refrigerator is flashing a "4" and you would like to know what that means. The "4" on your display means that there is a damper failure within your refrigerator and I would recommend checking the damper in the rear of the refrigerator to assure it is opening and closing. The damper is located in the back of your refrigerator. I would place your hand back there to assure it is blowing cold air into your refrigerator. If the damper is not working it could be a potential issue with your damper, main control board, or wiring harness. I would then recommend performing a reset on your refrigerator. You can do that by unplugging the power cord for roughly ten minutes. If this does not help resolve your issue I would recommend having a professional technician out to perform a proper diagnosis and repair. Best of luck! -Matt

fridgidaire makes cubed ice but crushes ice. could be push button on door, mechanism that crushes ice, if not mechanically inclined please call refrigeration tech to check out.

Test if you're getting power to the dispenser water-valve in back near bottom while depressing the dispenser activator on front. Should have 120 volts. If you have voltage, make sure water is on and screen is clean. If so, replace valve. If no power, bad dispenser activator. Make sure power getting to activator.

Good Morning Friend, I understand you are receiving an "SY EF" code on your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# FRS3R5EMB. The "SY EF" code stands for system error with the evaporator fan. This possibly means that there is something going on with your evaporator fan or it could possibly be a false error code. . I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your home's circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your appliances status has changed successfully. -Best Regards- WP

Hello friend, thank you for your inquiry! I see your door hinge is making a popping noise on your Frigidaire refrigerator. It sounds like the door hinge may need to be replaced or the door could use an adjustment. I would recommend contacting a professional to come out to diagnose the appliance to avoid any unnecessary part purchases. I hope this helps. -Matt

most likely bad evaporator fan motor located behind the wall in the freezer,when you open the freezer door you should hear the fan blowing in the freezer unless it's in defrost,if you don't hear it check it in 45 minutes if still no fan it's bad.

Hey friend, thank you for your post!

I understand that you are hearing a loud fan noise when your icemaker is on inside of your Frigidaire refrigerator. You could be hearing the evaporator fan or the condenser fan pushing air into your appliance, this is a normal operating noise. I hope this is helpful. -Matt

Good Afternoon Friend, I understand that you are hearing a loud airplane sound, intermittently coming from the ice maker, on your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# FRS3R5EMB. You will hear a buzzing sound as the water valve opens to fill the ice maker during each cycle. I suggest resetting your refrigerator, by either unplugging it or shutting the power of at your home's circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. Restore power and try getting ice out of the dispenser. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your appliances status has changed successfully. Hope this is helpful. -Best Regards- WP

It might be a food safe lubricant that needs to be cleaned out of the system yes clean the trays and anything else in that area also look in the manual under trouble shooting, if you have had the fridge piped in so the ice maker works auto there is a possibility of flux in the pipework but if you say the water is fine then a clean should cure any problem.

Hey friend, thanks for your post!

I understand that your Frigidaire refrigerator is not dispensing ice. I would check to make sure there is no buildup of ice on the inside of the freezer door to prevent any additional ice being dispensed. When you push on the dispenser lever do you hear anything inside of the ice bucket? If you do not hear noises when the dispenser is pushed I would check your ice bucket to assure that it is installed correctly.

If you continue to experience these problems I would suggest contacting a professional to come out and properly diagnose your appliance. Hopefully this is helpful. -Matt
