General Electric Refrigerator GSF25JGCBWW Freezer section too warm

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators, designed to accurately monitor and relay the temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments to the electronic control board. By detecting the slightest changes in internal temperature, the sensor allows the control board to make real-time adjustments to the cooling system, activating the compressor and fans as needed to maintain optimal conditions for food preservation.

Over time, the temperature sensor can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or general wear and tear. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to improper temperature regulation, affecting the efficiency of the refrigerator and the freshness of stored food.

Symptoms of a bad Temperature Sensor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperature 
• The appliance running continuously or more frequently than normal
• Inaccurate temperature readings displayed  

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Defrost Heater and Bracket Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It is responsible for facilitating the defrosting process, which is essential for maintaining proper cooling and preventing excessive ice buildup within the freezer compartment.

Symptoms of a faulty Defrost Heater and Bracket Assembly include:

• Excessive frost or ice buildup in the freezer compartment
• Inefficient cooling or temperature fluctuations
• Water leaks or puddles forming inside the freezer
• Unusual noises or burning smells during the defrost cycle

Causes of a bad defrost heater and bracket assembly can include normal wear and tear over time, electrical malfunctions, or physical damage to the heating element or bracket.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore refrigerator models.

NOTE: For a 9" double glass tube heater use WR51X10101

The Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It circulates air over the evaporator coils, ensuring consistent cooling throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments. The motor operates 9.75 volts DC. The motor has a 1/8" shaft and a 12" long, 4-wire harness.

You should replace the evaporator fan motor if it becomes faulty due to wear and tear, electrical issues, or physical damage. Over time, the motor bearings can wear out, or the motor itself can fail due to continuous operation.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan motor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not cooling properly
• Unusual noises coming from the freezer area
• Frost buildup in the freezer
• The refrigerator running continuously without reaching the set temperature

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Ice Door Assembly is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is integral to the ice dispenser system, controlling access to the ice chute. This component ensures the efficient delivery of ice cubes or crushed ice when activated and seals off the chute when not in use to maintain the freezer's temperature and prevent frost buildup.

Symptoms of a bad Ice Door Assembly include:

• Frost or ice buildup around the dispenser area
• Ice escaping from the dispenser when not in use
• Failure to dispense ice
• Noise during operation indicating misalignment or malfunction

Causes of a bad Ice Door Assembly can include mechanical wear from frequent use, failure of the spring mechanism or solenoid that operates the door, or damage to the sealing surfaces that leads to air leaks.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This fan motor circulates air in the fridge, helping to cool the compressor and condenser coils for better temperature control. It also evaporates extra water in the drain pan, stopping problems from water buildup.  

Symptoms of a failing condenser fan motor include:

• The refrigerator running hotter than usual
• Loud noise or rattling sounds coming from the back of the refrigerator
• The refrigerator cycling on and off more frequently or for longer periods

Causes of condenser fan motor failure typically include wear and tear from continuous use, dust and debris accumulation obstructing fan movement, or electrical issues such as faulty wiring or capacitor problems.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Note: This is a (12-volt DC) fan motor. For the (115-volt AC) fan motor, order part number WR60X10220.

The Ice Dispenser Solenoid is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It is a crucial component that controls the flow of ice from the ice maker to the dispenser chute.

Symptoms of a bad ice dispenser solenoid include:

• Failure to dispense ice from the dispenser
• Ice getting stuck or jammed in the dispenser chute
• Continuous flow of ice even when the dispenser is not activated

Causes of a bad solenoid can include electrical malfunctions, physical obstructions preventing proper operation, or simply wear and tear over time.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Door Recess Spring is an OEM replacement part for GE side-by-side refrigerators. It sits within the icemaker door frame to control movement and allow smooth closing/opening of the access point.

Causes of a bad icemaker door recess spring include wear and tear of thin metal coils repeatedly compressing over many years of filling cycles. Exposure to humidity intrusions from melting ice accumulates oxidation shortening spring elasticity. 

Symptoms of a bad icemaker door recess spring include: 

• Difficulty opening and shutting the icemaker access door securely
• Excessive slamming noise caused by abrupt closing
• Sagging or improper alignment of the door against the frame  
• Struggles retaining positioning of the transparent plastic doorway

This genuine GE replacement spring is compatible with Hotpoint, RCA and Kenmore models.

The Dispenser Door Recess Crank is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This crank is a crucial component of the refrigerator's ice and water dispenser system, helping to operate the dispenser door by opening and closing it when activated. It ensures that ice or water is dispensed efficiently and prevents unwanted air from entering the freezer compartment.

You should replace the dispenser door recess crank if it becomes faulty or damaged. Causes of a bad crank can include wear and tear from frequent use, accidental damage, or mechanical failure. A malfunctioning crank can lead to issues with the dispenser door's operation.

Symptoms of a bad dispenser door recess crank include:

• The dispenser door not opening or closing properly
• Ice or water not dispensing correctly
• Unusual noises during the dispensing process
• The dispenser door staying open or not sealing properly

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Compression Ring is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to secure and seal connections within the refrigerator’s water and ice dispensing system, ensuring a leak-free operation. This small yet vital component helps maintain the integrity of the connections, preventing water leaks and ensuring the proper flow of water through the dispenser and ice maker.

Over time, the compression ring can wear out or become damaged due to regular use and the natural aging of materials. If the compression ring is compromised, it can lead to water leaks or poor water flow, which can affect the overall performance of the refrigerator’s water and ice dispensing functions.

Symptoms of a bad compression ring include:

• Water leaks around the dispenser or ice maker
• Reduced water flow or no water flow at all
• Drips or puddles forming inside the refrigerator

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
