Frigidaire refrigerator not cooling is a known issue affecting FFSS2615T series. Our technicians specialize in Frigidaire-specific diagnostics and repair.
Frigidaire refrigerator not cooling is typically caused by faulty compressor or dirty condenser coils. Frigidaire-specific factor: adaptive defrost control board failure — ptc relay on main board burns out, stopping defrost cycles. Repair costs $150-$400 with free diagnostic and 90-day warranty.
Adaptive defrost control board failure — PTC relay on main board burns out, stopping defrost cycles
Evaporator fan motor icing from defrost drain blockage — ice builds until fan blade contacts ice wall
Start relay and PTC device failure on compressor — clicking sound every 2-5 minutes without compressor engagement
Condenser fan motor burnout from dust and pet hair infiltration through bottom grille
Sealed system refrigerant leak at evaporator U-bend joints — slow leak over months
Other Frigidaire models may also be affected. Book a free diagnostic for confirmation.
Seeing one of these codes? It likely indicates not cooling.
Frigidaire refrigerators are common in Bay Area rental properties and builder-grade installations. The FFSS2615T side-by-side is the most-serviced model in San Francisco apartments. Bay Area fog-belt humidity accelerates evaporator ice buildup when the defrost system fails — by the time tenants report warm temperatures, the evaporator is fully iced over. Start relay failures are often the cheapest fix but go undiagnosed without professional service.
Listen for compressor engagement: steady hum means compressor runs, clicking every 2-5 minutes means start relay failure (cheapest fix)
Check evaporator: remove rear freezer panel — full ice sheet means defrost system failure; partial ice means drain blockage redirecting melt water
Test condenser fan: remove rear bottom panel, verify fan spins when compressor runs — no rotation means motor replacement needed
Run Frigidaire diagnostic: press Freezer Temp Up + Freezer Temp Down simultaneously for 5 seconds — error codes display on panel
The technician listens for the compressor click pattern first — a repeating click without engagement points to the start relay, which is a 15-minute $30 repair. If the evaporator is fully iced, the technician steams the ice off, tests the defrost heater and thermostat, and replaces the failed component. Condenser fan motors are accessed from the rear bottom panel — a 25-minute swap. Most Frigidaire cooling repairs complete in 45-60 minutes.

“My exprience with Easy Bear was absolutely superior from the beginning. I had a Subzero decide to quit. Daniel assessed the issue immediately, ordered the required new " motherboard" and had it installed within three days. My prior replacement of said part took 5 months during Covid. Daniel is smart, professional, clearly knows his trade . I most definitely will use Easy Bear in the future.”

“Daniel was thorough in his assessment and very responsive through phone and text. He looked over a dishwasher for possible repair and in less than one hour, had recommendations and ballpark estimate. Will definitely contact again in the future.”

“Daniel the technician came to diagnose what's causing our washing machine water overflowing. He didn't actually have to do anything to solve the issue, because as soon as he turned it back on, it began to work properly, but explained what the probable cause was. He was sincere and clear on the matter related to the situation. I wasn't charged for his visit as I was told ahead of time. Stanislav was also cordial arranging for all of the process. I will call them next time I need an appliance service without hesitation.”
