Questions & Answers

For Ge Refrigerator Temperature Control Thermostat (Part Number: OEM17420040)

1 Answer

Hello Steve. If you turn the unit down, and it never shuts off until you turn it to off, you will need to replace the cold control in the unit. It sounds like it is not reading temperature properly.

The freezer stops freezing intermittently (has been happening randomly about once a month for the last 3-4 months). To get it going again once it stopped freezing takes slightly moving (or even just touching/shaking a bit) the temperature regulator knob. After that it works fine for 3-4 weeks until that happnes again. I suspect either a faulty temperature control board; or maybe a freezer auto-defroster control; or maybe the thermostat, but am not sure which of the parts is the most likely to be bad. Will greatly appreciate a piece of advice.
