Richard M June 29, 2013 for Model Number JSD2789AE I just replaced the adaptive frost board and now the frig won't stop running. Can you help me?
1 Answer Richard, You will want to check to make sure that the unit is defrosting. Pull the rear wall of the freezer compartment and check to make sure that the coils are not impacted with frost. If they are and you have already replaced the ADC board then you would want to replace the heater/thermostat assembly and defrost the coils. If when you replace the defrost board it was due to the coils being impacted with ice and you did not clear the coils then this would also cause the unit to continuously run. Read More...

Carol February 28, 2013 for Model Number MZD2766GE When I take off the back panel in the freeze there is ice all over the coils. What is causing that? Also the tempture in the frig is around 40.
1 Answer Carol, This is caused by a defrost failure. You will want to do a continuity test on the defrost heater and thermostat assembly WP61006199. If there is no continuity then you will need to replace the defrost and heater assembly. If there is continuity then you would need to replace the defrost control board 61005988. 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...

David December 27, 2012 for Model Number JCD2389DES My freezer is cold but not freezing and the ice maker stopped working at the same time. The refrigerator seems the correct temperature. I have had problems in the past with a clogged drain pan and leaking/ice on the bottom of the freezer but I haven't seen that this time.
1 Answer David, Is there a heavy frost or ice build up on the back of the freezer wall ? This would indicate a defrost issue . But your first check needs to be at the condenser 61005452 and condenser fan 833697. You'll need to move the refrigerator away from the wall, unplug the power cord,and remove the lower rear access panel. You'll need to clean out any debris on the inside and outside of the condenser, the fan, and the compressor, and the area. plug the power cord back in, turn the refrigerator on and make sure the fan runs at a high speed and moves the air through the condenser and over the compressor to cool it.

Dbone November 14, 2012 for Model Number MSD2757AEW Would a defective defrost control board cause the water despenser to spit water during a defrost cycle? Also, there is a buzzing coming from the location of the defrost control board and thermostat. Note: not defrosting well.
1 Answer Hello DBone. No, that would be a bad water valve causing that. As for the defrost issue, and the buzzing, you will need to replace the board 61005988. Read More...
Linda October 20, 2012 for Model Number MSD27566PW DO THIS UNIT HAVE A COLD CONTROL SWITCH? BOTH SIDES ARE FREEZING UP. WHAT PART DO I NEED?
1 Answer Linda, Yes the refrigerator does have a cold control switch WP61005651. It's actually the freezer temperature control. The temperature in the refrigerator is controlled through the auto damper WP61005971. This is probably where the issue is, if the auto damper fails in the open position, the refrigerator compartment will get too cold and freeze. You'll al;so need to check the air return cover WP61006081 , behind the crisper drawers to see that the air flapper is opening and closing as designed. Read More...
