Greetings - for no reason that I can tell the temp in my refrig and freezer go up to 50 or above - I have cleaned the dust from around the condenser and cleaned the fan. Now I don't know if the thermastat needs to be replaces or the motor. The refrig is running and the fan is running - Can you help?

Bj for Model Number PFS22MISBWW

Answer Hello BJ. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the main control board WR55X10942 may be sticking in defrost and you will need to replace the main control board on the unit.

My coil keeps frosting up. I,ve had the board changed and tested the heater element. Everything seems to be ok there. However, when I tested the the thermodisc there was continuity right at room temp. I thought this was supposed to be a closed loop until it reached a certain lower temp. Anyway, still cannot figure out the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Chopper for Model Number PDS22SBRBLSS

Answer Hello Chopper. If the heater is good and the board is new, it sounds like the thermistor WR55X10025 on the evaporator is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. This will prevent the defrost cycle from working.

I would like to know how to set a GE refrigerator Profile line to manual defrost mode. The evaporator assembly in my freezer freezes up and becomes and ice block, the freezer continues to work but the refrigerator compartment warms up. I removed the evaporator fan cover and de-frosted the evaporator assembly and it began to work well i put back the evaporator cover and the same thing happened about a week later. This time I de-frosted the evaporator assembly and decided to run the refrig without the evaporator cover to monitor what is going on the freezer iced up again and the freezer and the refrigerator compartment both ran warmer than normal, the unit displays a number for the temperature for the freezer and the refrigerator compartment and these numbers are higher then normal. The defrost heater may need to be replaced but I just want to make sure before I replace it.

Al for Model Number pds22mbpabb

Answer Hello Al, As per the manufacturer, the only way to force a defrost on these units is to actually jump voltage from a hot circuit to the defrost circuit at the main control board. I always just get the wiring diagram out and unplug the unit and test the circuit for resistance from the main board. There are only four components of the defrost circuit in these units. Not counting the wiring harness as a part, the defrost heater, the defrost thermostat, the defrost control, (main electronic control board), and the temperature sensors. If the defrost heater and thermostat check out good, I would at that time change the evaporator sensor. If that doesn't do it, time to change the board.

First let me say your site is fantastic. My freezer will at times for no reason that I can see, shoot up to 25 degrees then goes back down after a few hours. I did a self-test and it came up with a fail on the Freezer thermistor. I am trying to figure out if it is part #AP3772847 or #AP3796802 before I dig into the freezer. Can you guys help me? thank you.

Eric for Model Number PFS22MISBBB

My refrig damper is not working. Could the thermostat bi metal part be the cause of the problem?

Steven for Model Number gds20kbsacc

Answer Hello Steven. No, you will need to check and see if there is power coming to the damper assembly WR09X10115. If so, and the damper does not open, you will need to replace the damper assembly. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Greeetings. I have a defrost problem. By using your tutorial, I was able to figure that it is either the defrost heater or the thermostat. I had already thawed the ice when I got to the thermostat test, so I put it in my other freezer to get it below 40 degrees. It has continuity straight out of having it in the freezer for an hour, but it also has continuity at room temp. Anyway, the heater ohms out at 31.5 ohms. The range is supposed to be 15-25 +/-(?). Are the ohms too high? and should the thermostat have continuity at room temperature? Thanks a million, you've been very helpful.

Don W. for Model Number pfs22m1sbb

Answer Hello Don. It sounds like the heater is good, based on the information you provided. You will need to replace the thermostat WR50X10044. It should not read open at room temperature. However, the thermodisc WR50X10047 is a fuse and will read closed. Hope this helps.
