Model Number: F44N18CED1 Brand: Frigidaire Age: More than 10 years
Refrigerator was cooling down to 22 F and Freezer was plenty cold.
I Purchased a New Temperature Control from you last week and installed it. Now with the Control set between 0-1 and the freezer between Cold And Coldest the Refrigerator is cooling to 28F and The Freezer to -12F I sure would appreciate your help...Thanks Eugene Ads By Google Related Models |

Make sure you got the factory cold control and not a substitute, next make sure you routed the new control capillary wire in the same place as the old one. Also you could have the freezer damper control set too high, just readjust to allow less air into the fridge section.
If ok, you just may have a refrigerant leak for a pro. to look at. Please post results.

I checked the Temperature Control that i recieved and it is an Electrolux for various makes.
Is this the manufacture for Frigidaire or is there a Frigidaire part that i could send this back in for. I closed off the damper in the freezer compartment but think it is more of an electrical problem. You did mention that if it is low on Refrigerant that it might run cold. Would this cause the switch to not work correctly? Maybe it draws to much juice so the contacts stick. I don't know much about Refrigeration but do know some about eletronics. Maybe its time to give up on this and buy a new one. Thanks for your time. Eugene |

Hi Eugene
The first thing I would check is the damper itself. Remove the damper cover from the back panel in the freezer and check how it moves when you turn the knob. Then I would check the position of the cold control sensing bulb. If the cooling system is low on Freon then it should be warm (not extremely cold) in the refrigerator. Forget about Freon leakage in your situation. Frigidaire is a part of Electrolux. - Here are the break down diagrams for the Frigidaire refrigerator Model F44N18CED1 Good luck. Gene.

Send that control back and insist on the exact replacement, ie same original part #.
For Gene, if the unit is low on refrigerant, the cold air from the freezer will never reach the trip point of the cold control!! In this case, the use of the original cold control will still produce the same results, unit will never shut off!! For eugene, pull the cover off the back of freezer and describe the evaporator frost pattern,if partially frosted, it's low on refrigerant.

I Checked the Freezer Damper and it moves fine also pulled the back pannel off the freezer to check the frost pattern and it was even top to bottom.
I double checked the entry of the sensor bulb into the tube shield and it was all the way to the bottom. The refrigerator still cools to 21f and freezer to -15f set on 1 on the control. I tried without the sensor tube cover and made no difference. It runs fine at times Ref. 32f-40f but then for no reason it goes out of control. Thank you all for trying to help. Eugene |
