Hi George, Thank you for your question. If your refrigerator is either too cold or too warm, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the temperature sensor, the main electronic control board, the evaporator fan motor, the defrost thermostat, the defrost heater, the light switch and the capacitor. You will find information on how to test these parts under Free Repair Help and Instant Repairman on our website. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!

fridge temperature 45 dgrees
Once I got the main board, I was shock! Since that wasn’t the main problem I was having.
I replace the main board, by pulling the fridge out and unplugged the power cord from the outlet. Removed the cover from back of the fridge and disconnect all wire connection and reinstall new board. Note: make sure to cut the jumper wires on the main board. It’s that easy. How ever that did not solve my problem, since I still have a problem with the dispenser/nothing works. Next I have to buy and install the dispenser board and keep my fingers cross. $1700 for the fridge, less than three years old and problems are adding up already!

Refrigerator warm in both compartments, evaporator fan inop, no defrost, and no ice or water dispensing.
My grandson is the one that diagnosis and repaired the problem, he is a HVAC tech. He pulled off the access panel on the back of the refrigerator, and notice the resistor to the evaporater fan was burnt out. He also changed out the fan since it was burnt out. He said it was fairly easy, but also described it would be easier if the person doing it without knowledge should watch YouTube videos, they may help. Now, it works like it's brand new. He saved me from buying a new refrigerator during the holidays.

The freezer and fridge were not cooling
Installation was a breeze. From time I pulled the fridge out, replaced the board, and pushed it back in it took less than 20min. IMPORTANT! Check your model #. You may have to snip 2 wires as per instructions. The compressor will NOT run if this is not done. (The evaporator will run though.)

Neither refrigerator nor freezer would cool
Followed instructions enclosed with the part carefully. Some of the sockets were a little tedious to remove but they came of with a little wiggling. The three lug spade connector was the most difficult but it did eventually come off with no tricky release mechanism required. Removed each connector one at a time and reconnected to new boar d immediately so as to not lose track of which connector went to which set of pins. A few of the board pin groups were in a slightly different position on the new board but it was straight forward where they went. All in all very satisfactory installation and it resolved the problem completely. My refrigerator/freezer has new life!

Power surge made the control board go out
The video on the repair explains how to check for the damage on your control board. The installation was simple. As a female I surprised myself as to how easy it was to do this job. Easy breezy .

Cooled less and less until it didn't cool at all.
Went on U-Tube and learned how easy it was to repair. Since the fan and the compressor still worked, the problem could only be one of two things. I guessed wrong at first but then saw a small burned place on the mother board. Took less than 15 minutes to pull the old one out and install the new one. Easy peasy. I'm thinking that a re frigerator should last more than 6 years though. No more GE for me.

Refrigerator & Freezer were too warm
Main Electronic Control Board replacement went well. Also had to melt a large ice build up in the freezer and then removed the back cover in the freezer to melt ice from the coils. Now both the freezer & refrigerator are nice and cold... Previously had replaced a fan motor behind the refrigerator which helped but did not fix the probl em...
