upper rear of fridge too cold
I removed the light and cover, then removed the lower vent cover. This required a bit of pinching and pulling. Then I removed the Fresh Food Air Inlet Cover. I looked inside and saw that the flap/dampener was unseated and flopping around. That would explain why all the cold air was coming in from my freezer and freezing the food in my fridge. Replaced old with new, plugged in, reinstalled all covers, and Voila! My fridge is working correctly again. Thanks to the first review which was the one I followed. And Thanks to PartsSelect!

Refrigerator and Freezer warming and cooling. Ice would melt and then refreeze. Freezer temp would warm to 25 then back to 0, refrig temp would warm to 50 then back to 34.
We first read that we should thoroughly clean the coils which we did. They were very dirty, full of dust. This seemed to help for a couple days then the hot and cold started up again and was even worse. We did some research on the internet and all indications led us to change the main control board. We found PartSelect ordered the part, received it super fast (within 2 days), changed the part in less than 15 mins and our refrigerator works like new. No trouble since the repair. Saved a lot of time and money doing the repair ourselves.

The cub on the ice depensing tray was broken apart.
Remove the outside tray by removing the four screws. remove the screw attaching the crush lever but do not remove the lever. Remove the crush lever from the crushing head by disconnecting the hooked end.the On top there are two clips that are pop outs attaching the end of the ice maker to the tray Releasing the two clips was very difficult.(poor design shoould of used screws)I put two table knives one thru each of the slots. This allow me to force the head assembly out of the housing bracket. once that was done I remove the broken cup and installed the new part. Slid everything back together. Ensure the crush lever is properly aligned when you reinstall the screw. Install the bottom housing with the four screws and you should be good to go.

Icemaker quit working
Remove ice tray, turn off ice maker lever, then remove what's left of old Stripper Arm. Then align the Stripper Arm tab (one with hole in it on right) with 1/4" long cylindrical metal peg. Holding peg in Stripper Arm hole, guide the left hand side tab into the groove on the Icemaker housing. Make sure the tines of the Stripper Arm are on top of the Icemaker metal body. Assuming you keep the peg in the hole and the left side plastic tab into the groove on the Icemaker body, you should be good to go. Turn Icemaker lever back on, then insert ice tray. You should hear the first batch of ice cubes start to drop within a few minutes. Enjoy!

Ice shoot flapper door was sticking
Gentlemen,

Many thanks for the help in repairing my GE refrigerator. From the web site and videos, I determined the problem with the flapper on my ice maker was a bad solenoid. I ordered the part from you then followed the step by step instructions to install it. It made what seemed to be an intimidating job rather easy.

Thanks again,

Gary Schafer

Would not self defrost.
Remove the shelves then remove the back by removing the two screws at the top of the panel. Locate the temperature sensor on top of the coil. Cut the wires and replace with the new one. Use wire nuts and electrical tape to reconnect the wires.
