Frigidaire Freezer, FFU14FC7CB0, stopped cooling and temp light on

[kanddmama]

Our Frigidaire freezer stopped working.  The warm temp light is on and just stays on.   It doesn't have a drain plug and it's frost free.  We got to the food in time but really need the space.  Help!!!  Is it a relay problem???

I messed around with one a while back and did a blog on it. Do not know if it will help but the control was bobo and I figured out how to jump it and make the freezer come to life before ordering a new control:

Thanks so much JW.  I'll take a look.

We need more.  Is the fan running? Is the compressor running? Is there frost buildup on the back panel? If neither the fan nor compressor is running, probably the cold control.  If the fan is running but not the compressor, probably the compressor relay, possibly the compressor.  If there's frost buildup on the back panel, defrost problem.

Seems only the fan is running.  There's no buildup of frost at all.

It's probably the compressor relay, then. Remove and shake it, if it rattles, it's bad.

It's on the compressor.
