Fix uneven cooling or defrost issues with a new temperature sensor. Most DIYers complete this repair in under an hour with basic tools and our video.
I unplugged the fridge and took all the food and shelving out of the freezer and then proceeded to take off the bottom sliding drawer rack on both sides off (4 Phillips head screws). Then took off the light bulb cover and then the light bulb. Then the back wall that covers the coils and tubes that the refrigerant runs through ( 2 screws with hex head). After sliding out the back wall I could see that the entire coil area was frosted and iced up. I took a blow dryer and melted all of it over... Read more
Rubber grommet that seals and cushions where the evaporator fan motor shaft mounts. Replace if cracked, worn, or missing to eliminate noise and vibration.
It was after 11:00 at night a few nights ago, I couldn't sleep listening to the whining of the fan in the freezer, it was running and making noise sounding like waaoooww, waaaoww. It also sounded like grumbling of a garbage disposal. The refrigerator fan motor was so noisy it was keeping me up all night going on and off running really loud and about to fail. So I was desperate, and called AppliancePartsPros when I couldn't get to sleep near midnight because the fan was so noisy and Bud in... Read more
If your refrigerator compartment isn't cooling while the freezer stays cold, the evaporator fan motor likely failed. DIY-friendly repair with video guide.
I changed the motherboard - computer and also changed the motor in the freezer, because it was doing a howling sound every time it turned on. The repair technician asked for $500 for a repair and that is on top of the $230 I paid him two days before. I looked up the parts and decided to try myself and it paid off. Great instructional videos. Thanks Read more
Interior light not working when door opens? This light switch controls refrigerator illumination. DIY-friendly install takes 30-45 minutes with video.
I ordered a new switch from APP and fixed my fridge. However, the video posted for this repair on this site is not applicable to newer refrigerator models. I have a 2015 GE GTE18IHCRSS and had to drop the control housing (#432 in the diagram) to attach the wire/plug assembly to the switch. Only had to remove the front screw with a 1/4" nut driver and that provided enough of a gap for me to plug in the switch. So the correct method to replace the light switch in a newer model refrigerator is as... Read more
Refrigerator not cooling but lights work? This inverter control board regulates compressor speed. Moderate DIY repair with proper diagnosis.
I have an 11 year old GE Monogram side by side built-in fridge that had been having cooling problems intermittently. The fridge would work for a day and then the compressor would not come on for 8 hours and temps would rise to the upper 20s in the freezer. Fans, lights, and everything else appeared to be functioning properly. It went like this for a few weeks and we put it off until the compressor decided not to come on at all for a full day. Being barely able to use a multi-meter, I watched a... Read more

Fix frost buildup or uneven cooling in your refrigerator. This defrost thermostat regulates evaporator temperature to prevent ice accumulation.
I am a home owner with no technical experience on doing refrigerator failures diagnostic/repair. So, I look for internet DIY type of help describing the symptoms. I found recommendations from Appliance Parts Pros going from the easy to the complex potential parts failures and decided to order the compressor start relay and the compressor overload. While waiting for the overnight delivery, came to my mind and decided to look to the freezer compartment and found frost all along the coils panel.... Read more
Not cooling or freezing? Fridge warm but freezer cold? Replace your refrigerator's main control board. DIY-friendly repair in about 10-15 minutes.
I am a 76 year old woman and hesitated to tackle the job. But my son sent me a Utube video "how to replace the board," and I was able to replace it, surprisingly, quite easily. I could have done it in a shorter period of time, if I had not been challenged with these arthritic hands and fingers. The refrigerator is now holding the temperatures quite nicely. Joan Read more

Condenser fan stopped on my big 2003 Monogram 4 foot wide ZIS480D Refrigerator. It is top mounted. The fridge had to be rolled out. 20 screws removed and the top sheet metal to get at the condenser. That was the only way to get at it. Works like new now. Read more
Rubber grommet that mounts and cushions the evaporator or condenser fan motor. Replace if cracked, worn, or missing to prevent vibration and noise.

Rubber bumper that cushions and mounts the evaporator fan motor assembly. Replace if cracked, deteriorated, or missing to reduce vibration and noise.
Changed fan motor, rubber grommets, and dust cover. It sounded like the vibrating sound was being caused by the motor. But, come to find out I had a chipped blade on one of the fan blades. So make sure and check the fan blade first. Thanks Appliance Parts Pros everything for just as it should. Read more
