Removed the Hex head small screw at the middle back of the Back wall of the fridge above the top shelf. Removed the 2 small Hex Head screws that go into the of the Plastic cover upwards into the top roof of the fridge. I ended up with an extra screw so I dont know what I did... The hard part is pushing up on the two tabs, one on each side in the extreme back on the bottom of that white plastic cover. You have to pull the coverwhile releasing the tab (locks) by pushing UP. The Right side was easier, I got that side to release and drop down. But the left side took some pressure on the tab with a fat screwdriver. Then you have to kinda of Bend the cover to get it to slide out...
Then take out the 2 phillips screws above the light bulbs. the left side one is tricky, need long skinny driver.
Drop assembly down and on the back right is the ADP board. Mine was a bare board but the replacements are enclosed in white plastic that fit in place just fine.
Pry connector off of the board carefully and drop new plastic circuit board case in and replace.
Put a thermometer in a glass of water. unplug fridge for 10 minutes and then plug it in. Give it a few hours.. Everything seems fine. A steady 39 degrees with the Fridge control at a few ticks right of middle. I have no idea what it was before my troubles... But 36 - 41 seems to be what you need.
