Frigidaire FGSS2335TF7 side-by-side refrigerator Parts

To reset the freezer controls on your Frigidaire FGSS2335TF7 side-by-side refrigerator, use the control panel’s Default settings reset: press and hold Set for 3 seconds to restore factory settings. If the display shows OFF/Power Off, press and hold Set to turn cooling back on (then allow temperatures to stabilize).

The reset options you can use

Use the reset that matches what you are trying to fix:

• Factory reset (recommended for odd temps or settings changes): Select Default settings, then press and hold Set for 3 seconds.
• Turn cooling back on (if the display reads OFF/Power Off): Press and hold Set until the unit powers on.
• Clear alarms (door ajar, flapper/ice chute alarms): Press Set to reset the alarm after the cause is corrected.
• Filter status reset (not a cooling reset): On Water filter or Air filter, press and hold Set for 3 seconds to return the status to Good.

For the exact button layout on your dispenser and control style, follow the steps in the owner's manual.

After the reset: set the right temperatures

After a factory reset, we set temperatures to standard targets and give the refrigerator time to recover.

Compartment	Typical target setting	What to expect after reset
Fresh food (refrigerator)	37°F (3°C)	Temps stabilize in 24 hours
Freezer	0°F (-18°C)	Ice production may take 24 to 48 hours

Quick checks if it still does not cool correctly

A reset fixes settings; it does not correct airflow, sensor, or control failures. These checks narrow it down fast:

• Confirm doors close fully and seals are making contact.
• Make sure vents inside the freezer are not blocked by food packages.
• Listen for the evaporator fan; a failed blade can reduce airflow (see refrigerator evaporator fan blade 5308000010).
• If temps swing or seem inaccurate, a sensor issue is common (see refrigerator temperature sensor 240597220).
• If the unit shows error codes, use Frigidaire refrigerator error codes to match the code to the likely cause.

Why it matters

A factory reset returns the control logic to known-good defaults, which helps when the freezer was accidentally set too warm, cooling was turned off, or an alarm condition left the controls in an unusual state. It also prevents chasing “bad parts” when the issue is simply a setting.

If your Frigidaire FGSS2335TF7 side-by-side refrigerator freezer is not freezing, the most common causes are warm air leaking in (door not sealing or not closing), controls set too warm, or poor airflow from a fan or frost buildup. Start with temperature settings and door sealing, then check airflow and the condenser area.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Confirm the freezer door closes fully and nothing is holding it open (bins, packages, ice bin not seated).
• Set the freezer control colder; allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize.
• Make sure vents inside the freezer are not blocked by food packages.
• Listen for the evaporator fan running when the freezer door switch is pressed.
• Clean dust from the condenser coil area and make sure the unit has airflow behind it.

Air leaks and door closing issues

Warm air leaks are a top reason a freezer warms up. If the door does not seal, the compressor can run longer but still not reach freezing.

What to look for:

• Gasket gaps, tears, or hardened sections
• Frost around the door opening
• Door not closing squarely

If the gasket is damaged, replacing the refrigerator door gasket (gray) 241786015 often restores proper sealing.

Airflow problems (fans and frost)

A freezer can stop freezing if cold air is not moving.

Symptom	Likely issue	What to do
Freezer warm, fridge also warming	Condenser fan not moving air	Inspect/replace fan motor or blade
Freezer warm, fan noisy	Fan blade hitting ice or worn	Check for ice buildup; replace blade
Frost blanket on rear freezer panel	Defrost problem restricting airflow	Defrost and troubleshoot defrost system

Helpful parts for airflow-related repairs on this model include the refrigerator condenser fan motor 242018301 and refrigerator evaporator fan blade 5308000010.

Temperature sensing and control issues

If the freezer temperature reading is wrong, the refrigerator may not run long enough to freeze.

• A failed thermistor can misreport temperature; see refrigerator temperature sensor 240597220.
• A control problem can also affect cooling; see refrigerator electronic control board 5304507449 if diagnostics point there.

Why it matters

A freezer that is not freezing can lead to food spoilage and can also cause the ice maker to stop producing ice. Getting the door seal, airflow, and temperature control right restores stable freezer temperatures.

For model-specific operating details and control settings, use the owner's manual. For ordering any replacement parts listed for FGSS2335TF7, you can also search by model on Sears PartsDirect.

If your Frigidaire FGSS2335TF7 side-by-side refrigerator is not making ice, the most common causes are the ice maker being turned off, a closed or restricted water supply (kinked line or closed valve), or a clogged or improperly seated water filter. Follow the checks below, then allow time for temperatures to stabilize.

Quick checks that fix most “no ice” problems

• Make sure the ice maker is turned on (some models use an ON-OFF button you press and hold for about 3 seconds).
• Confirm the refrigerator is connected to the household water line and the shutoff valve is fully open.
• Check the water supply line for a kink or pinch behind the refrigerator.
• Reseat the water filter so it locks in fully; a filter that is not seated can stop water flow.
• If it has been 6 months or longer, replace the water filter; clogged filters reduce water to the ice maker.
• Look for anything holding the ice maker wire signal arm up (on models that use an arm).

Prime the water system after filter changes or new hookups

Air in the plumbing can cause two or three empty ice maker cycles. After installing a new filter or reconnecting water:

• Dispense water for several minutes (or until flow is steady).
• Discard the first batches of ice; early cubes can be discolored or taste odd.

For the model-specific steps and control locations, use the FGSS2335TF7 owner's manual.

When to suspect a part problem

If the ice maker is on, freezer temperature is cold, and water supply is good, these parts are common culprits:

Symptom	Likely issue	Part to check
No water entering ice maker	Failed inlet valve or restricted supply	Water inlet valve assembly 242252702
Small or hollow cubes	Low water flow (often filter restriction)	Water filter seating and supply line
Ice maker runs but output is inconsistent	Ice maker module or temperature sensing issue	Refrigerator temperature sensor 240597220

Why it matters

An ice maker needs steady water pressure and a cold, stable freezer temperature. A clogged filter, trapped air, or a partially closed valve can reduce fill volume, leading to no ice, small cubes, or cubes that freeze together.
