Westinghouse Top Freezer 18.2 Cubic Foot Total Capacity Refrigerator Questions & Answers
Freezer is working but refrigerator will not get colder than 50 degrees
Your problem is one or more parts of the defrost system is malfunctioned and in return your problem arises. There are three parts to the system, the defrost timer or in some cases control board, defrost thermostat also known as a bi-metal, and the defrost heater. The defrost system is set up to operate as so. The defrost timer or control board will turn the machine off, in some cases every 8 hours, some 12. During this time period the defrost heaters, located behind the freezer wall and rest underneath the evaporator, yet wires to them run up the side of it, are energized and emit heat that raises upward to melt the ice that has formed on the evaporator coils. The bi-metal or defrost thermostat is at the top of the evaporator. When the heat from the heater starts to reach the bi-metal, it breaks the circuit turning the heater off. The whole purpose of this is because the freezer cool the refridgerator side by drawing air across the coils and blowing to the other side via the evap fan motor. In my opinion, if you change one part of the defrost system change them all because usually when one part fails another will follow, so save yourself the time and the food loss, the cost difference is minute.

If the electronic display is blank and the fridge is not working, it is possible that there is an issue with the power supply to the fridge or with the control board. Here are some steps that you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
- Check the power supply: Make sure that the fridge is properly plugged in and that the circuit breaker hasn't tripped.
- Check the control board: The control board is responsible for regulating the temperature in the fridge and freezer.

Try resetting the control board by unplugging the fridge for a few minutes and plugging it back in.
- Check the temperature sensors: The temperature sensors in the fridge and freezer are responsible for communicating the temperature to the control board. If a sensor is faulty, it may cause the fridge to stop working. You may need to replace the faulty sensor.
- Call a professional: If you're not comfortable troubleshooting the issue on your own, it's best to call a professional appliance repair technician to diagnose and fix the problem.
