David for Model Number PSS25MGNAWW Follow up question. When I do the self test I get on the freezer read out a "P" and on the FF side I get 12345 during the test it reads out like this p1, p2, p3, p4, 05, now that would show a failed thermistor on #5 which is the freezer thermistor right? I replaced the freezer thermistor and reset the unit and then ran the test again and still the same results pass on all of them except the freezer which I still get a "O5". How can it still be failed if I just put a new one in? Checked all of my connections and everything is tight. Any help with what to do now? Thank you
Answer Hi David. There are 2- thermistors in the freezer section. Part # WR55X10025, for evap. one. Part # WR55X10025 for middle area in the freezer. There are 2 - as well in the fresh food area. Same part #'s. Crisper and upper control/damper area. When you pressed cold,warm both freezer and fresh food to enter the field test, did 0-'s appear in both areas? If so did the blinking 0's change to solid 0's? Just confirming. The thermistors are controlled by algorithms sent from the main board. Yes, 0-5 means the freezer thermistor has failed. Your connection needs to be tight and back filled with silicone so no moisture will impede the connection. You may have only replaced one thermistor and change the other as required. Thermistors have been upgraded as a whole and last longer these days. Thank You. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, October 19, 2011
