Answer

Roxanne, the refrigerator and freezer thermistors W10316760 will need to be tested for accuracy from the main control W11088499. With the refrigerator unplugged, the refrigerator thermistor wires would be found at connection P5 pin 1 (white wire) and pin 2 (tan wire) and would be tested for resistance. The freezer thermistor wires would be found at connection P5 and would be the black wires at pin 3 and pin 4. The temperature of each section would need to be accurately measured and compared to the resistance readings of the thermistors. At 50°F the resistance should be 5.3K Ohms, 8.8K Ohms at 32°F, and 25.9K Ohms at 4°F. If the resistances are within a 10% range, then the likely failure would be in the main control W11088499. Proper temperature sensing by the control can impact the operation of an ice maker.
