What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Ice dispenser not working. Check that the display lock is off, both doors are fully closed and the auger is not frozen, and remove the bin to clear any ice jammed between the ice maker and bin. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators - No Ice
- Freezer alarm sounding. The buzzer means the inside has warmed past 20°F, so check that the freezer is level and the door closes and seals, and keep it shut while it recovers. Source: Frigidaire - What does the alarm or "buzzer sound" mean?
