Refrigerator Insert Control Panel Parts

You guys are great! The Representative I chatted with corrected all the misinformation I was give by the repair man that charged me $85 for his 100% wrong advice. He said the whole door needed to be replaced to change that panel as it is molded into the door!! This was an Electrolux factory authorized service center! He advised that to get around the problem we should change the main control panel ($130) at the bottom of the freezer!! Make sense? Absolutely not. We ordered a simple part from... Read more

I searched the internet for people who had the same symptoms and looked at what they replaced to fix the issue. Turned out I needed to replace the board-switch, which I ordered from AppliancePartsPros.com. It came very quickly. I also watched a YouTube video that showed a couple of tricks to easily remove the part from underneath the refrigerator. It only took me a few minutes to remove, and then only a few minutes to re-install the new part. It's been 5 days now and everything seems to be... Read more

At first I read the error code as 5Y CE. Googled that and found a number of distressed pleas for the same interpretation. Finally I found a technician/interpreter of mysterious codes who enlightened me: SY CE means there is a communication error between the display board and the main power control board. Meanwhile, we had unplugged it, waited 10 or 15 minutes, then plugged it back in, The refrigerator responded like a computer reboot and started working again. No error code! We bump knuckled...

Evaporator fan would not run. I replaced the evaporator fan, but that did not fix it until i replaced the main board (power board). the board is underneath on the left side with one screw holding it. I figured there was only one main board but there are multiple; you have to read descriptions to get the correct one. Read more

The ice maker on this fridge has had several well-known problems since new. For quite a while, it would over-produce ice, get jammed up, and stop working completely even after the ice was emptied. I read somewhere on the web that beginning with version 8.1 of the ice maker control board, the problems had been fixed. I checked, & our board was version 8.0, so I ordered a new one, which is currently version 8.5, from AppliancePartsPros, and all seems to be well now. It makes ice, stops when... Read more

I replaced the freezer temp. control and it is now working. I ordered the part on Wednesday around noon and when I came home from golf on Thursday around 2:00, the part was sitting at my front door. I was very impressed about the very quick delivery from Louisville to St. Louis. Read more

Bought new optic control boards, both the emitter and the receiver. The repair process was so simple. The KitchenAid repair tech came out to diagnose our issue. He was only going to come back and install a new emitter. They wanted a lot of money to do the repair. They were going to charge us $257 just for the part (emitter board). We bought both boards for $300 from AppliancePartsPros. We decided to replace both boards, because if one went bad the other might not be far behind. Read more
