PFSF5NFCABB General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

My son replaced both temperature sensors and the fridge works great now!!! Like brand new again!!!!

Easy, with included video and instructions

My 14 year old Son

The part arrived and we snapped it in. The agent for Partselect was INCREDIBLY helpful in locating the part and completing the order for me.

We received the part just a few days after ordering, unscrewed the old filter by hand, and installed the new filter the same way.

Folowed instructions

exactly as the instructions.......never did see anything about replacing the adapter...therefore i did not

Unplugged the refrigerator first....then on the inside of the fridge, I popped the temp sensor cover off (upper LH side) and exposed the old sensor. I snipped off the old sensor about 3" down from the end and connected the new sensor (which I trimmed down to about 3" long) with some heat shrink wire nuts/connectors. Let the fridge run for a day or so and confirmed the problem was solved! Oh yeah, there was no way to tell the 2 wires apart (power vs. ground) on the sensor. However there was a manufacturer's stamp on the wires. So note the orientation of the text and mark one of the wires with a sharpie on both the old and new sensor before trimming. This will give you a reference for which wires to connect when adding the new sensor to the old wires.

First I unplugged the refrigerator. I removed the cardboard from the back and unhooked the inlet water line with a wrench and the water line to the ice maker, which was a quick connect. I unplugged the wire harness and removed the valve, then installed the new valve, plugged in the wire harness and hooked up the water lines. I turned on the water line and plugged in the refrigerator. The ice maker works great.

Followed the repair video, was spot on!!

luckly i have a bit of experience in refrigeration im an hvac technician by trade. this repair was a bit tricky in that i did not know at first if it was a Temperature Sensor issue or the main control board. I had tested the defrost termination thermostat and the defrost heater and as i suspected they were ok. Next i wanted to test the thermistors (temp sensors) it is hard to find technical data on these fridges. I needed to test the thermistors resistance @ a certian temperature to ensure they were working properly but where do u get such data? I also wanted to know some information about the logic programmed into the board (i.e when do you initiate defrost etc. . .). I had no such luck so i figured since i tested the defrost heater and thermostat and they were ok and all of the evap fans and such were working i'd order a circuit board and new thermistors. Got the CORRECT PARTS from this site in 2 business days and my fridge is working great! changing the parts was really easy, figuring out which parts to change was the only difficult thing about this job.

The repair is a snap, you can watch the video and it will put you on the right path. My story is more about the service that Part Select gave me. I used a small box fan on low as a temporary fix. My model number was worn off from the box wine we store in that particular place. So I ordered the part based on looks, well it was wrong. Called Part Select and we talked, the nice lady on the other end said OH it must be this fan motor. Send us back that one, and I'll get this out too you. I'll credit your account for $7.99, and it cost me $8.99 to ship back the wrong part. Wow, the next day I received the new motor. They sent it overnight! I thought it would be 5-6 days! Unbelievable. I will use this company for any, and all my repairs.

It was easy and fast, like changing a light bulb. The directions were clear and easy to follow. Thank you.

We just pried off the fan blades and pushed on the new part. Could not have been easier. The rat has been permanently dipatched and, hopefully, that is that.

Pulled out produce drawers. Pulled out frame pan, and took apart all parts attached to it, Installed parts on new frame,and reinstalled in fridge.Part fixed perfectsly, guy on phone who helped me getthe right part was terrific.
