Tom S June 15, 2013 for Model Number gsh22jfta This frige or freezer will not cool. Ice cubes melted down overnight. The fan in freezer is running, fan on compressor is running. I put a new control board in it and still nothing. Any ideas. It is not frosted up. I have replaced the defrost heater a year ago. Very troublesome frige. Thank you in advance
1 Answer Tom, If both the refrigerator and freezer are not cooling then you will want to check to make sure that the condenser fan motor is operational. If it is not it will cause compressor to overheat and shut down. If this checks ok then you will want to pull the rear cover of the freezer compartment to check to the frost pattern. If there is no frost pattern but the compressor is running then the issue would be either a restricted or leaking sealed system which will need to be determined where the fault is in the system. This will be the case if there is not a full frost pattern on the evaporator coils. Read More...
Hksiu97 June 13, 2013 for Model Number GSS25JFMBWW GE water tube frozen. Unfortunately, the WR49X10173 is not compatible to GE model GSS25JFMBWW. The 2 side by side doors were replaced by thicker doors by GE in 2007 under a recall. I have replaced all 3 temperature sensors WR55X10025, also the Defroast Thermostat WR50X124 and the Main Control Board WR55X10942 were replaced. It worked great for 6 days then NO water. I turned down the temperature setting from 5 to 3, 3 to 1; then after a while, NO water again. Please advise other optons. Thank you.
1 Answer HK, The retrofit doors that were replaced, should have solved any frozen water tube issues in the door liner, but you will want to check the door panel, and inner door panel for frost, moisture or condensation along the hinge side of the panels. That would indicate where the water tube is freezing, if it is. The other possible options are : a faulty fill valve or wire harness WR57X33326, WR23X10168 ,you didn't mention any temperature issues but you also need to check the water tank WR17X10734 make sure it's not frozen, due to improper air flow or articles against the walls or hanging over the shelves. If all's Ok, then consider the filter head assembly WR02X45206 The issue could be there, in the internal valve sticking closed and not allowing water to flow. Read More...

Hksiu97 June 12, 2013 for Model Number GSS25JFMBww The 2001 side by side GE model GSS25JFMBWW has water tube frozen problem. All 3 temperature sensors WR55X10025 been replaced, Defost Thermostat WR50X124and the Main Control Board WR-55X10942 has been replaced. It works great for 6 days, then water tube frozen again, even the freezer control dial been turned down from 5 to 3, to 2 to 1. The suggested heater kit WR49X10173 is NOT for the GE model GSS25 JFMBWW. May be becasue the water tube is plastic, NOT metal. Please note the 2 doors has been changed to thicker doors (better insulation) by GE under a recall in 2007. Please advice the specification on the Heater and Bracket Assembly by GE Part Number AP3183311 MFG Part Number WR51X10055. Please advise the resistance value measured at room temperature 68F (20 degree C) and at 32F (0 degree C). I would like to find out whether the heater element is working to its full specified performance. Thank you for your help. Really appreciated.
1 Answer HKSiu97, You will need to get the water dispenser heater kit WR49X10173 which will correct the issue of the tube freezing. Read More...
Hksiu97 June 12, 2013 for Model Number GSS25 JFMB WW I have a GE side by side fridge, GE model GSS25 JFMBWW. No water dispense, water tube frozen at freezer door near dispense area. Have changed all 3 temperature sensors (WR55x10025) , Defrost thermostat (WR50x124), and Main Control board (WR55X10942). Worked great after 6 days, then had to reduce the freezer temperature setting (9 is max. very cold) from 5 (mid point/normal setting) to 2, now to 1, and still have problem. Freezer temperature -10 degree. Please advice the correct spec on the temperature sensor part (wr55x10025), I measured resistance value reading at 13K ohms at 32 degree F, and 5K ohms at 68 degree F? Thanks.
Tom June 07, 2013 for Model Number gss25sgrbss The water won't come out of the water dispencer I replaced both solenoids, and can't find out if theres a frozen water line or how to check. it makes ice but no water. I have a pool of water thats turns into ice in the freezer bottom but don't know if that has any thing to do with it.
1 Answer Tom, The water on the bottom of the freezer compartment is usually an indication of a clogged drain line. If you pull the lower basket out you can clean the ice from the drain and flush with hot water. For the dispenser water not working, you will want to pull the kickplate off and there will be a water line connection at the bottom. Disconnect the water line connection and put the dispenser to water. Push on the dispenser lever and if water comes out then the dispenser water line is frozen in which you can get the dispenser heater kit WR49X10173 which will correct the issue. Read More...

Steve May 23, 2013 for Model Number pss25sgnabs On the refrigator side it won't stay at desired temp..37°. It freezes the food. I have cleaned the coils. Still not working right. How do I know if its the damper or thermistor?? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Steve. You can test the thermistor on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...

Jas May 14, 2013 for Model Number sir #zics360nrjlh and modlal mr030856 ge monogram HI my freezer temperature is going nuts. It goes up to -14. I can not set it back freezer is very cold. Some time it will come down. How to change the thermostat.
1 Answer Jas, To change out the temperature sensor you will need to access the sensor and cut the sensor out and splice the new one in. The thermistor should be located on the side wall under a grill. The grill will be small and to remove you just use a flat blade screwdriver to pop it loose. Read More...
