Don for Model Number RB215LABP/XAA The refrigerator works and the bottom freezer will not work. Also the refgerator will defrost and then freeze the water under the crisper. The temperature is at 38 degrees in fridge. The freezer fluctuates between 38-48 deg. I'm suspecting the sensor,but because the freezer will not work properly I suspect the board. Any help would be appreciated.
Answer Hi Don. You Need to test the sensors at normal operating temperatures only. The sensor shuts off the heater @ 50 degrees in the freezer, and at 63 degrees in the fresh food.– If the sensor is bad it may shut off the defrost circuit in a fewminutes or not start, causing ice build-up, or it could lock upin defrost mode and become a total no cool.Note: A defective sensor may check OK at room temperature, testat operating temperature only.The drain pan comes with a sensor, This part # is DA97-00195H. The refrigerator defrost temperature sensor is part # DA32-10105R. Thank youi . Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, July 8, 2011
