What a Frigidaire Technician Deals With
On dispenser models the bin uses an auger that can freeze in place when ice melts and refreezes, and a rotated auger has to be realigned in 45-degree steps before the bin will seat. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators - No Ice
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 not freezing. Allow 24 hours to stabilize after install or an outage, confirm power and settings near 0°F, test the door seal with a dollar bill and remove items blocking the vents. Source: Frigidaire - Freezer - Not Freezing or Not Cooling
