Questions & Answers

For Ge Air Damper Assembly (Fresh Food Section) (Part Number: OEM9421146)

1 Answer

Patou, this could be caused by a failed thermistor WR55X10025. With the refrigerator power cord unplugged, both thermistors can be tested from the main control at the connection J1 from the blue wire at pin 5 to the yellow wire at pin 2 for the lower thermistor and the blue wire at pin 5 to the blue/red wire at pin 1 for the upper thermistor. The sensor should measure 12.7K Ohms at 41°F and 16.3K Ohms at 32°F. They should also measure 6.2K Ohms at 68°F, 5K Ohms at 77°F, and 4K Ohms at 86°F. If the sensors measure within 10% of the range, it is possible that the damper WR49X10091 has failed if it does not close at all.

Hello R.J., I'm sorry but we will need to ask you to please post a new question including the verified model number from the units' I.D. tag since the one provided will not come up for us as a valid model number. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.

Patrick for Model Number ZISS420dmcs

I have rattling noise that lasts about 3 seconds coming from the lower section of the fridge section of my GE Monogram. I investigated and read a lot online and people and techs said to change the damper assembly (WR60X10063). I have since replaced this part but the noise continued. I also check my old removed part and it seemed to look intact. I opened it up and there was no broken screws or parts inside it. What else could be causing the problem? It is a very irritating rattling or wood pecker type noise that comes on every 20-30 minutes as the damper opens up and last about 3-4 seconds. Could I have a defective replacement part or what else could be causing this. Thanks

Vansman, This issue would most likely be caused by the damper that is located at the top of the unit but we would need to have the model number of the unit to verify the part number.

Jon, The damper would be located on the refrigerator side and you would want to remove the light cover and the housing at the top of the refrigerator compartment in order to access it. It will be in the upper left rear corner of the refrigerator compartment.
