We completed a refrigerator repair in Canton, OH for a customer whose Admiral FRS22PRCD0 freezer wasn’t freezing properly. The ice cream was cold but not frozen, and the unit would occasionally turn on but turn right back off. We found the cold control thermostat had failed.
The Problem
The customer reported that their freezer was not freezing. The ice cream was cold but not frozen. Occasionally it sounds like it turns on but turns right back off.
Diagnosis
We found the cold control thermostat had failed. The compressor and fan were functioning normally, which indicated the temperature control system was the issue preventing proper freezing temperatures.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: 5303300027 — Cold control thermostat
- Work performed: Replaced the cold control thermostat
- Result: Compressor and fan are functioning normal with proper temperature control restored
Is It Worth Repairing?
Admiral refrigerators from this era are generally worth repairing when the issue is a single component like a thermostat. These units were built solidly and a thermostat replacement can restore full functionality for years to come.
Maintenance Tips for Admiral Refrigerators
- Keep condenser coils clean by vacuuming them every 6 months to prevent overheating
- Check door seals regularly and clean them with warm soapy water to maintain proper temperatures
- Don’t overload the refrigerator as this restricts airflow and strains the cooling system
