GE Freezer stopped working

SOURCE: The sides of the freezer are really hot

Is it really becoming excessivly hot or is it that you just have not been aware before. Most freezers generate heat when they are cooling down (yeah ok, so that sounds crazy). It may just be the freezer working hard to lower the temperature to get back to normal operating temperature

I TURNED THE CONTROL TO OFF TO DEFROST MY FREEZER. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON THERE IT DOESN'T COME BACK ON AND THERE IS A LOUD BUZZER.
IS THERE A RESET BUTTON SOMEWHERE TO RESET THIS OR HOW CAN I GET IT TO COME BACK ON? I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND OF COURSE I CAN'T FIND MY USERS MANUAL. IT IS A 1994 MODEL FB14 DSDRWPT.

SOURCE: my brand new freezer wont freeze

I would plug it into a different plug in - not one that is on the same circuit that it is plugged into now. If the plug in is working for other things, it still may be bad and not able to handle the load of the freezer. If your freezer will not work on a completely different circuit, then there could be something wrong with the freezer, but it is not likely since two of them should not be bad. Seems to me more like an electrical problem in your location. Hope this helps you, Rick

Hi,

As the weather is getting warmer for many people their freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...

Check out this tip that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...
