Rod June 21, 2021 for Model Number PLHS69EGSS3 The unit is not going into Defrost. What would be the part # and it's location on the refrigerator?
1 Answer Rod, the main control 5303918340 would be responsible for operating the defrost cycle. Unfortunately, the control has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available. However, it would be recommended that the defrost heater 242044113 and the bi-metal 5303918214 are tested as they could have possibly failed instead of the control. The defrost heater should measure the resistance of 30 Ohms and the bi-metal should measure as having continuity when the freezer evaporator is frozen up. Read More...
Bob July 31, 2020 for Model Number FLSC238DS6 I am trying to determine if I need a Frigidaire Power Control Board (Part Number: AP3965513) or a Control Board AP3963433. When I press the crushed button all works as it should. When I press the cube button nothing happens except for the light on the panel, it does come on.
1 Answer Bob, based on the information provided, the selector board 241708307 is operating properly and this can be verified by testing from the white wire (with a yellow stripe) using the red probe of a meter to the black wire using the black probe of the meter. If there is DC voltage while cubed is selected, the selector board is sending information properly and the dispenser power board 241708102 would be the likely cause. Read More...
John June 28, 2018 for Model Number fghs2644kf2 I ordered a new main power board part 5303918525 had no power to the compressor and fan but everything else worked. I plugged in the new board and the refrigerator hums for a couple seconds and then I have nothing working anywhere. The old board was visibly burned at the power connector. Is there a reset needed?
1 Answer Hello John, If the new board 5303918525 is good you will have a connector or harness issue. Read More...
Bob K June 06, 2018 for Model Number FSC23F7DSBP Tech diagnosed and says I need new control board so cooling unit defrost will work again. Fridge is 13 years old so I'd like to replace board myself. Where is it located in the fridge? And what part number do I need? Thanks very much for your help!
1 Answer Bob, This issue would be the main power board 241511101 which is located up under the front of the unit on the left side. Read More...
Daniel L April 28, 2018 for Model Number PLHS69EESSN We just purchased this used refrigerator. We found the ice maker/auger was not plugged in. When we plugged it in and closed the freezer section door, the auger runs and runs, never stopping. That was probably why the original owners unplugged the ice maker. With the ice maker plugged in (and the auger running away), water was dispensed into the ice maker trays like it was supposed to, but the water dispenser on the door doesn't dispense water. On the control panel, pressing the Crush or Light buttons do nothing, but all the other buttons seem to work. The Cube button stays selected no matter what. Thanks in advance!
1 Answer Daniel, The most likely cause for this issue will be a faulty power board which is part number 241708102. Read More...
Jim M March 30, 2018 for Model Number PHS68EJSB0 I replaced the micro-switch for the water. Now when I go to get water, both water and ice are activated. When I go for ice, same thing. I checked the ribbon cable and there is continuity on all pins with no shorts. One at a time, I replaced both boards with the same outcome. The front panel "appears" good as the indicator lights illuminates when I hit the respective button. As a side note, the cube/crushed ice selection only dispenses crushed ice. I am able to reach in to the back of the freezer and manually move the cube/crushed ice selector. I do not hear the solenoid engaging when toggle between cubed and crushed
1 Answer Hello Jim. You should have a brown and slate wire on the ice switch and a brown and orange wire on the water switch. If both are wired correct and the unit is not pressing both switches when you press a lever, you will need to replace the power relay board in the dispenser. Thank you. Read More...
Tim February 03, 2018 for Model Number FRS26H7CSB2 I have checked the voltage coming into the water/ice actuator mother board, it is 12 volts, but the voltage coming through the ribbon harness is only 1.2, is this too low as to why the water, lights, ice dispenser will not work? Does the mother board need replaced?
1 Answer Tim, Yes with the lights, ice and water not working then this will be caused by the low voltage. The voltage should be 12 vdc coming through the harness and you will want to check at the board to make sure that there is 12 vdc to from the board. If this checks ok then the issue will be a faulty board. Read More...
Curt January 18, 2018 for Model Number PLHS269ZDB5 Our Ice maker is not working. The Fill valve is never powered (checked voltage at Fill valve after manually starting harvest cycle). Water dispenses at door ok but fill valve never supplies water to ice maker line. Thinking a new Ice Maker would complete the electrical circuit request (for fill water), I replaced it, but it's still dry. I also replaced the fill valve (but checked the new one to be sure and had good continuity on all 3 solenoids). Could a Control board or Power board be the culprit? Other than not filling the ice tray with water, every other function of the refrigerator works as designed - no problems with front panel buttons, ice auger, water dispenser, defrosting... This is becoming frustrating! I thought it was a simple problem! Thx!
1 Answer Curt, If there is power getting to the water valve then check the fill tube to ensure that the fill tube is not frozen. If the fill tube is frozen it will cause this issue with the water not coming into the icemaker. The icemaker does not go through the control board so if there is no power to the water valve and the icemaker being new then this will be an issue with wiring. Read More...
Rafael April 01, 2017 for Model Number E23CS75DSS7 After replacing the water actuator and putting everything back together when i close the freezer door the ice auger keeps spinning and no water came out. Should i replace the power control board?
1 Answer Rafael, First, remove the bottom grille and hinge cover and check the wiring harness at the bottom of the freezer door and door hinge. It could be that the wiring harnes wires are damaged and broken or shorting out. Then check or replace the dispenser control board/user interface 241527601 and 241527502. Thanks Read More...
Christy January 12, 2017 for Model Number LGHB2867PF7A Two of the 3 panel light indicators for the water and Ice dispenser are out. Do I have to replace the circuit board?
1 Answer Christy, Yes if the leds are out on the dispenser then the dispenser board 5304527930 would need to be replaced. Read More...
