Refrigerator Runs but Does Not Cool
Troubleshooting an appliance that is not working can be tricky. The easiest thing to do would be to consult your owner's manual but what if that's not handy? A common appliance problem is a refrigerator that runs but does not cool. Some possible causes of this can be:
1) The temperature setting is too low.
2) Doors that are not closed or sealed properly.
3) Your condenser may be dirty causing the appliance to not operate efficiently.
