Sorry, we couldn't find any existing installation instruction that matched.
Refrigerator compartment would not cool (58 deg F), freezer maintained 0 deg F
It dawned upon us, after stumbling across chunky milk and crisper starting to freeze items, perhaps the fridge was not working properly. Checking temps the compartment would run 57 to 59 deg F, yet the freezer was perfectly fine 0 deg F. Rather than trouble shoot what component was the driving issue, I decided to replace all the main components: motherboard, compartment fan, blend door assy. Motherboard was quite simple: two screws for a cover on the back, unplug all the harness connectors, plug back in. Compartment fan simply slid out and new one back in with a little trickery for the wiring (I just cut the old fan harness rather than fight the wire routing plastic piece). The blend door assy was the most complicated but just a series of 1/4" nut screws and disassembly. Fridge now maintains 35 deg compartment temp. I'm not certain which component was the culprit (leaning towards motherboard, as I look back some the interior lighting may not have been working properly, which also suggest MB), however I'm glad $450 in parts brought fridge back to life any not $3k for a new one.

Refrigerator would warm up while freezer got colder
Repair man thought it was the control board and an issue with a relay on the board. Purchased the new board but found out the board was fine, and it was the recirculating fan that would go out intermediately.

Tried ordering that part from Part Select since they have been great, but GE discontinued the part and their was not a replacement available. After much research, found the new replacement part number and ordered that, it went in quickly and for now seems to have solved the problem.

GE side by side just ended warranty. Fridge is chimming..but all doors are closed..it quit dispensing water and ice. Lights inside and freezer sometimes on sometimes off. Still cold can hear compressor running. Still freezing and keep items cold. Thinking 1 of 3 pcb boards failed? Thank you.

If they seem to be in good condition, we would recommend replacing the control board, part number PS16619572. Customer service is available 7 days a week if you need help placing an order.

Hi Byron, thank you for the inquiry. If the refrigerator is not cooling, we would recommend cleaning the condenser coils and evaporator coils. As you have replaced the evaporator and the condensor fan motor, we would recommend checking the electronic control board, part number PS16619572. It manages the functions of the refrigerator, such as cooling and defrosting times. We hope this helps!
