Dv for Model Number GSS25VFPAWW Hi, My GE fridge GSS25VFPAWW is 11 years old. I noticed it started to work much longer in the last couple of months than before. The defroster heater and the thermostat checked OK. I have replaced the heater last year so I knew what a frosty evaporator coils look like... There was some ice buildup, but mainly on the top of the coils. The top thermistor reading was 18.3 KOhms at 0°C, the bottom one 16.0 KOhms (0°C). Do you think I should change the thermistors or the problem is something else? BTW I didn't notice temperature rise in fresh food section or the freezer but I didn't measure them. After defrosting the coils it's working normaly again... Thanks in advance for your help! DV
Answer DV, The thermistors are within range of where they should be so this issue would not be with the thermistor. The fact that there was only frost build up at the top of the evaporator coil would indicate that the unit may be low on refrigerant or there may be a restriction in the sealed system. Read More...
