My 6mo old LG Side by Side refrigerator has developed a problem. The refrigerator side thinks it is the freezer and is freezing everything. everything on the shelves, in the crisper drawers...everything is now frozen solid! I spoke with customer service and did everything they suggested...the temperature control is at the lowest setting, the air vents in the freezer side are unblocked and clear, and the sensors are clear, but everything is still freezing. HELP!!!

Ihave recently purchased a L.G side by side refrigerator ,as described the fridge , although the temp controller is set at the lowest it still freezes.Please can someone please assist me to solve this as it is very frustrating.
Just had the second one delivered Sat Dec 2nd ( of the new model with full length handles) after the first one split the liner in the freezer compartment. This one has the fridge freezing problem. Has been on lowest setting for 2 days and it started to freeze a fresh jug of water over night. (Make an excellent beer fridge). Have just tried turning it off for 20 mins hoping that turning back on might reset the electronic temp function. 2 from 2 in 10 days not looking good
Further to 2 in 10 days freezer temp -18c fridge temp -5.5c most items in fridge reading 0 to -1 with infra red temp reader
The display goes blank, except there are two light on in the refrigerator temp setting. Then everything in the refreigerator side freezes. I unplug, and that solves the problem for a day, then back it is to the frozen fridge.
Bought our LG 01/01/07 and for 9 mos. it was fine. Have had nothing but problems since. First the LOUD roaring noise came and lasted about a week (open door & noise quit but started again when door was closed). Had repairman out and it was fixed for about 1 month then the outside door panel lights went (no ice just water available) and the frig side started freezing. Had this worked fixed for about 1 month. November everything started all over again. Fixed about about 2 wks. and then again 1st of this year (08) it started all over again. Finally, repairman said enough is enough and we are getting a new frig on Tues. Feb. 05. After reading the other statements being made I am no longer excited. We will see....
Mine does the same thing.
Mine is only 1.5 MONTHS old and is freezing EVERYTHING. When we called the LG help number they told us to put the temp. and the 3rd setting?!?!?!?! it is now at the wamest setting and freezes everything, the guy we spoke with was not helpful at all.
Fridge bout 9 months old. It has been freezing up since about 2 months old. I first thought it was because the kids stood and looked in, allowing too much humidity in. That problem "fixed", I realized either the defrost timer or heat strips bad. Same "loud roaring", thats ice build up around the circulating fan. Also, VERY low ice production. I have contacted a svc tech, since my unit is still under warranty. I hope I don't have to fix it myself and pay.
Wow, for those contemplating to buy LG.... their refrigerator seems to have this freezing problem on the fridge side. Ours have the same issue and started gradually. Now after a year, we are getting ice on our food specifically on the left side closest to the freezer. Very frustrating because the LG technicians do not know how to fix it.
