Al June 10, 2018 for Model Number GSL25JFPA BS GE fridge stopped working last week, checked and found Conyrol Board fried - replaced it and Freezer is working great. Not so cool in the food compartment though. Checked all three thermistors, thermostat and defroster for continuity - all ok. Evaporater could and can seems to be working - although I don’t hear fan going on high speed much. Compressor and fan working normally. Damper looked closed most of times I checked. The couple of times I found it open, it closed within a minute or two. Pushed light switch off to simulate door closed for a minute or two - Damper did not open... Could it be the cause of not cooling the fridge? Please advise. Thank you.
1 Answer Al, The damper not opening and the temp being bad in the refrigerator compartment would be the most likely cause for this issue. Read More...
Roger P. April 09, 2018 for Model Number PSS25MGMBB I've got an ice build up at the bottom of the refrigerator damper and an awful lot of condensation/water droplets that is worst at the top of the refrigerator under the cover tunnel. I would have said I need to replace the damper because of the ice build up, but research doesn't seem to mention the excessive moisture as a symptom?
1 Answer Hello Roger, This is normally caused by an air leak that allows room humidity to get into the unit. When the moisture condenses in the freezer, it will cause a frost formation. When it accumulates in the fresh food section where the temperatures are not cold enough to freeze, it will cause the formation of water droplets. If the damper is still operational, you will need to locate the air leak to correct the issue and using a hair dryer on a medium setting should clear the moisture from the damper. The air leak can be around a door seal or at the ice door. If the damper WR49X10091 is not operational, it will have to be replaced. Read More...
Cindy K. March 25, 2018 for Model Number GSS22IBTGCC Thank-you for the quick response to my question regarding the GE Damper with Sensor kit(WR09X10050). I used your Appliance Compatibility Tool and it says that this part is not compatibile with my model (GSS22IBTGCC). The damper is exactly the same. The problem lies with the wire harness. Mine has only 2 leads. The replacement has 6 leads so it can't be connected. Is there any way that this can be adapted? Also, the replacement part does not show up on the diagram of parts for my model. The damper cover does but that's it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
1 Answer Cindy, This damper assembly WR09X10050 will be the correct part for your unit. This will work in the unit even though the sensor on your unit only has 2 leads this will connect to the current connector. Read More...
Cindy K. March 21, 2018 for Model Number GSS22IBTGCC I'm having trouble finding the damper with sensor kit for my GE side-by-side. My milk on the top shelf is freezing. There are water bottles next to the milk that aren't freezing. My repair guy wrote down the wrong model number to the frig and brought part #: WR09X10050 and it looked like it would work but the problem is the plug. Mine has only 2 leads. This one has more so it can't be plugged in. It looks like GE never made a damper kit for my frig. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
1 Answer Hello Cindy. It looks like you will need to order WR09X10050 for the damper and gasket assembly needed. Thank you. Read More...
Dallas February 15, 2018 for Model Number GSS22KPGAWW The fresh food section will be warm and the freezer still cold. The damper door will be closed. If I unplug the refrigerator and plug it in again, the door will open and fan will run cooling the food section for a time, but after several hours it will be warm again. Again freezer keeps things frozen during this time. I have replaced the main board and thermistor in the refrigerator and neither one fixed the problem. Is this the damper door or something else? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Dallas, If the model number is actually GSS22KGPAWW, you will need to replace the damper assembly WR09X10050. Read More...
Vinnie July 17, 2017 Are the freezer and refrigerator thermistors are the same rating, or do I have to buy them accordingly? I don't have my model number but it is a GE side-by-side.
1 Answer Hello Vinnie. Since the thermistors change in resistance, you should be able to use it in either section. Read More...
Gman October 24, 2016 for Model Number GSL25JFPABS Freezer cold, refrigerator semi warm. I have replace the thermistor in the freezer, the main control board, the damper assembly and the temperature control assembly. The damper opens from time to time but only stays open for a minute or less. There is no ice buildup in the freezer but there is occasionally a thin coat of frost on the food items that comes and goes. The fan does work. Any ideas?
1 Answer Gman, Yoy will want to recheck or replace the refrigerator thermistor(not the freezer) WR55X10025 / WR55X10025. Also check and make sure there's nothing in the way of the cover or an article redirecting the air away from the thermistor. Chack and make sure there are no corroded or discolored pins in the connectors and/or loose wires. Frost on the articles in the freezer indicate an intermittent air flow issue, or an air leak. Your refrigerator has a low voltage DC fan motor WR60X10074 / WR60X10074, this type motor does have a tendency to run slow, intermittently or erratically. Based on your post description, that would be the most likely issue for all your refrigerator problems. Read More...
Keith June 25, 2016 for Model Number GSS201EPA Ww My side by side fridge. about every two to three weeks the freezer frosts over and the fridge compartment gets warm. I have to unplug it to defrost vacume out the water in pan then plug back up. It will work fine for another three weeks then the same thing happens again. Getting frustrated. Please help
1 Answer Keith, You can check the defrost limiter to see if it has continuity. If it does not have continuity then you would not need to change it out. You will also want to check the defrost thermistor for resistance. The resistance values should be as follows, 42.5K at 0 degrees, 14.4k at 37 degrees and 5K ohms at 77 degrees. If not within range then it would need to be replaced. If it checks good then also check the defrost heater for continuity. If no continuity then replace and if good with continuity and all other components check ok then you would need a new main control board. Read More...
Mike March 15, 2016 for Model Number GE frig model GSH22JFXACC I just replaced damper and resistor wr60x10215 but there is no wires that go to the lght everything works but i have no light in frig my old damperwas just a plastic cover and thermistor but had 2 wires for the light
1 Answer Mike, In order to get the light wire harness in place to operate you will have to remove the pins from the original connector and insert into the same pins locations as on the original. This would be the only way to get this to work. Read More...
Anthony Skelton March 06, 2016 for Model Number GSH22JSXASS I have replaced the defrost heater, the button thermostat, all thermistors, and the defrost mother board. The freezer section is working great but the fresh food section is freezing food on several shelves. I took the damper out and checked it but it is not equipped with a motorized damper, it only has a clear plastic flap. The model number is GSH22JSXASS, Can you tell me anything else to try because I am tired of buying food just to have it freeze and ruin
1 Answer Anthony, It is recommended to install the motorized damper WR09X10050 for the issue with the fresh food freezing. Read More...
