Ma September 03, 2015 for Model Number GE Fridge Model PSC23MSTC SS I purchased and replaced the main control board part no WR55X10942 due to problem with ice and water dispenser. Upon installation of new board, the fridge started working by dispensing both ice and water, but after 24 hours, the freezer compartment keep the temperature at set point, but the fridge side is still at 54 deg F. the board is not exactly the same as the one before, but it is the replacement part for this fridge. Is it possible that I have a bad temperature sensor or something else? Any guidance will be appreciated.
1 Answer Hello MA. You will need to check and make sure your serial number does not match those on the instruction sheet. If it is good, you will need to look for either a damper issue or a defrost issue with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the evaporator coils in the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. I will include a link at the end to assist you how to use the multi-meter if needed. Once the problem is repaired, you will need to thaw out the ice on the coils before the unit will operate properly. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Mankain August 31, 2015 for Model Number GSS25TGMACC GE Refrigerator Hello, my GSS25TGMACC fridge has a dead custom cool display. Everything appears to be cooling and working properly just no display of fridge or freezer temps. Would this be the temp control board or the main control board?
1 Answer Mankain, If the other controls are working on the display the issue will be the temp control board. Read More...
Jumpsteady August 22, 2015 for Model Number HSM25GFRE SA Freezer and fridge not cooling, compressor and condenser fan motor not running. Inside evaporator motor in freezer is running. Should I replace motherboard? Thanks.
1 Answer Jumpsteady, Yes the most likely cause for the compressor and fan motor to not work would be a bad control board WR55X10942C. Read More...
John U August 17, 2015 for Model Number pss27sgpass on the control panel, it always lights on cubed (Ice is coming) and sometimes the lock control light is on. I cannot change from this two light display on. All other functions are not working because I can not change to different functions and every thing else is just fine. My question is ---- do I need main board or just replace control panel board and some thing else. greatly appreciate for your answer. john um
1 Answer John, Based on the post information you shouldn't need the main control board WR55X10942C. You do want to check the wiring harness at the freezer door lower hinge, make sure there aren't any loose connections or damaged wires. Then replace the dispenser control board assembly WR55X10298 if all's OK. Read More...
Tom August 11, 2015 for Model Number PSS26MGPAWW 12 months ago my GE Profile stopped cooling... I unplugged, cleaned coils and it worked again. 6 months later same thing... I unplugged, cleaned coils and it worked again. 3 months later I simply unplugged for 24 hours (coils were clean), plugged it in and it worked for approx. 12 hours. Now it's blowing warm air again. Could this be the mother board? Since it was making "white" ice before it went down I assume it isn't a leak in the sealed system. Any ideas?
1 Answer Hello Tom. Yes, it sounds like the main board is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Chad July 30, 2015 for Model Number PSS26NGPABB Fans and lights are running, but compressor doesn't seem to be. Warm air is blowing. I replaced the start relay, but it didn't help. I tested the voltage on the wires connected to the start relay and the reading was 0. Is there anything else I can check to confirm that the board is bad?
1 Answer Hello Chad. If the voltage is 0, you will need to order and replace the main board on the unit. Read More...
Len July 18, 2015 for Model Number PFS22MISBBB My refrigerator is a bottom freezer unit. The freezer is now not going below 27deg., the fridge section is not cooling, and I do not feel any air flow there (I do in freezer). I suspect the main board as this all started after a short power outage. Could it be something else?
1 Answer Len, You will want to check the evaporator coils to make sure that there is not heavy ice build up on the coils. Also check to make sure that the evaporator fan motor is running. If there is heavy frost build up then you will want to test the defrost thermostat, sensor and defrost heater. The sensor should have a resistance of 42.2K ohms at room temp, 14.4K ohms at 37 degrees and 5K ohms at 77 degrees. The heater and defrost limiter should have continuity and if there is no continuity then the part is bad and would need to be replaced. If there is an even frost pattern but the fan is not running then test for voltage at the fan motor. This fan is a DC fan and would have 13 vdc from white to red wire. If all this checks ok then it would most likely be the main board but recommend checking other components first. Read More...
Dominic C. July 13, 2015 for Model Number pds22isblss I think I need a main control board and was wondering if this would cause the climate control lights to be out while the interior light is on. The refrigerator is not running, we tried unplugging it with no luck. If this is the cause, I will need to order the board. Thank you
1 Answer Hello Dominic, It is possible for the climate control light circuit to have a poor connection or a bad main control WR55X10942C. Read More...
Debby July 11, 2015 Replaced the Main control board(WR55X10942), fan stopped working. So replaced the fan motor and fan, it's still not working. Was working before I put it back together. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Help ????

G.Jack July 09, 2015 for Model Number PDS22SBPARSS I have a GE frig. on top freezer drawer below. The digital temp control reads -17' F in the freezer and +67' F in the frig. Is it the mother board #AP4435216 or something else. Please advise. Hope to hear from you soon.
1 Answer Hello G. You need to check the fan motor and the damper assembly first in the unit. If good, It sounds like you may have a defrost problem with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the evaporator coils in the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. I will include a link at the end to assist you how to use the multi-meter if needed. If both parts are good, you will need to replace the control board. Once the problem is repaired, you will need to thaw out the ice on the coils before the unit will operate properly. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
