Samsung fridge freezes milk and food - Samsung RS2556 Side by Side Refrigerator

maybe the fridge is set on a colder setting and if that's not it then stick it on the lower shelves and that might help from not freezing because are fridge is the same way when it is stuck by the coolant fan

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome to the site. You need to raise the temperature in the fridge. You should have a turn switch in the fridge that is numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

try cleaning the coils.

Refrigerator is Too Cold and Freezing Food

Hi,

If your milk is not keeping then the frdge is too warm....

Turn the control on the fridge a little bit colder each day, till you just start to freeze things...

Then make it just a bit warmer and you will be at he best temperature to keep food the longest...

i have this exact same problem. Started about 3 months ago with the crisper and now the water. when I turn the fridge off after a few hours the water works again. I'm calling the repair person tomorrow

Sir, To solve this problem, you must open the compressor area at the back bottom of the refrigerator and chek the temperature of the pressure line. If the temperature is between 55celcius to 60 than its ok. Or else you need to change the refrigerant. I suggest you to contact the service authority.

Thanks for contacting Fixya.

I need your model number, you may have a problem with your thermistat. Sears uses a different model number system than everyone. The model number will look like this 231.0564879 for example. Or yours may have electronic vents. Let me know, Thanks, Sea Breeze
You may need to contact me because Fixya has a problem letting me know if you respond.

Refrigerator [email protected] 40 F or lower is the recommended refrigerator temperature to slow bacterial growth and maintain quality. Freezing occurs at 32 F; adjust refrigerator accordingly between 32 F and 40 F to prevent unwanted freezing, such as freezing milk.

-2 although below freezing temperature, is not really enough to keep food really frozen. I am presuming we are talking in Celcuis. You need to set the freezer to a lower setpoint.
