bobalves728@comcast.net Report post Posted April 10, 2010 We have a fridge that is freezing food. Unit is current running on electricity, but can run on batteries and gas as well. The fridge has a slide control for temp. I assume it could be either the control or the temp. sensor? Is there a way to test these? What else could it be? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fridge has a slide control for temp. I assume it could be either the control or the temp. sensor? Is there a way to test these? What else could it be? Thanks Some refrigerator models do have temperature controls-- don't know if yours does or not. Obviously, if so, turn it warmer. If no temperature control, slide the temperature sensor DOWN (so it is in a colder location in the refrigerator and will therefore signal the PC board to run less, therefore make the refrigerator warmer). If that does not correct it, turn off 12 VDC (or pull fuse) and unplug 120 VAC to the refrigerator and with a pencil eraser clean the contacts on the PC board. Yes, a PC board or temperature sensor could be bad, but you might want to start with the easy/free stuff first. Brett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
