Oh please help! I have an Amana side-by-side refrigerator who's alarm goes off intermittantly (usually in the middle of the night)....it is also freezing EVERYTHING in the refrigertor despite the freeer and refrigerator controls set at the lowest (warmest) settings....I know nothing about this refrigerator...please help...I need sleep

[PS Staff - Sheila]

The alarm is going off because of the temperature not being right.

There is a problem with the electronic control or the thermistors.

If you have an ohm meter you will be able to use the tech sheet to test the fridge.

If you don't have a meter you should have someone in to fix your fridge.

The tech sheet is located in the control panel or behind the kick plate.

Here is a link to your fridge model SBDE20S4SW.
