Frigidaire Refrigerator Repair – CANTON, OH (GRSS2652AFJ)

We responded to a service call on Gateway Blvd SE in Canton, OH for a Frigidaire refrigerator with reversed cooling zones. The freezer side was refrigerating instead of freezing, while the fridge side was freezing, and the ice maker was out of commission.

The Problem

The customer reported that their Frigidaire refrigerator had completely reversed its cooling zones. The freezer side was refrigerating instead of freezing, the fridge side was freezing, and the ice maker was out.

Diagnosis

When I arrived, the freezer was operating normally, but the fresh food section was about 50°. After disassembling the unit, I found the freezer fan was not running. However, when I removed it to test, it took off spinning.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts replaced
• Work performed: Disassembled unit and tested freezer fan operation
• Result: Fan is running, damper is open and fresh food, cold air movement to fresh food confirmed. Unit should resume normal cooling.

Is It Worth Repairing?

Frigidaire refrigerators from this model series are generally reliable appliances that respond well to maintenance and minor repairs. When the issue is resolved without parts replacement, as in this case, it’s definitely worth continuing to operate the unit. The GRSS2652AFJ model represents good value in the mid-range refrigerator market.

Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Refrigerators
