How to Troubleshoot & Replace Ge AP7188100 / WR55X10942C Refrigerator Main Control Board

Ordered a replacement part, watched the video on the site and easily completed the repair, never having done this before. Saved alot of money in repair cost and it was easy to do! 

Extremely easy fix! Ordering the part from appliancepartspros.com was simple. The hardest part of the job was waiting for the part to arrive. Once it got here, it was a 10 minute job to remove the old part and replace it. Plenty of Youtube videos are available to show you have to do it. 

I used your webpage and similar cases, helped me to buy a Mother Board from you. 

15 minutes to install a new main control board... labelled the 7 connectors with a piece of tape and drawn a diagram on a piece of paper... dead simple. 

I watched the AppliancePartsPros.com video and managed to work through GE's instructions. Dixie's and Sally's customer service was great. It is good to know that there is good customer service still out there. I will highly recommend AppliancePartsPros.com in the future. 

First, I replaced both thermasters. No change. I then replaced main circuit board, which solved the problem. I noticed a burn mark on a solder joint on the defective board. Replacing the board was very simple. 

I replaced the main control panel in about 15 minutes and everything is OK 

Our compressor fan seized up and the refrigerator was operating fine with a box fan on the coils. Once I replaced the fan, the entire fridge died. Bought the main board and had it shipped to the house. I had to leave on a business trip and the repair was so easy, I talked my 16 yo son through it on the phone. Works great. 

When the displays and compressor stopped working, I unplugged the unit for 30 seconds, and plugged it back in at which time only the displays and compressor began working correctly. I read comments from other customers on Appliancepartspros.com website and determined that the main control board (mother board) was more than likely the problem. I ordered the board from APP.com and rec'd it the next day (FANTASTIC SERVICE). I installed the board five days ago, and all functions have been working properly. One suggestion, I used a felt tip pen to label the six plugs on the harness as I disconnected them (top right, top left, top center, etc.) as they are in a very tight space. 

Replaced both control paney board and main board in back of unit.
