Damper Control Assembly 242303001

Hello, thank you for your question! We would recommend checking the following parts to fix your issue: the defrost thermostat (PS469522), run capacitor (PS3495561), evaporator fan motor (PS11728171), and defrost heater (PS2581596). These are common causes of the refrigerator section being too warm. If the temperature is fine, or all of these parts are testing correctly, you may need to look at the thermister, part PS8760187 as it may be sensing the temperature incorrectly. We hope this helps!

Hello David, Thank you for the question. The Damper should open and close on its own to allow the cold air though. If you can manually open and it allows the cold air into the Fresh Food Section, we suggest having it replaced. We hope this helps!

Hello Shane, Thank you for the question. The error "H1" error code indicates that the refrigerator thinks that the freezer and refrigerator temperatures are too warm. The temperatures are likely too warm. You can check to make sure the Damper is opening and closing properly and allowing the Cold Air to flow. You can also check the Defrost Thermostat Kit. The best way to do this is to remove the thermostat from the refrigerator so you can control the temperature of the sensor. You can let the sensor warm up to room temperature. With the sensor warmed up to room temperature the sensor should read approximately 6.2K Ohms at 68°F. With the thermistor submerged is a glass full of ice water, the sensor should be very close to 32°F which should read approximately 16.3K Ohms. If the values that you are getting are far off from these readings, then the sensor is bad and should be replaced. We hope this helps!

Hi Paul, Thank you for the question.If you are asking how to check to see if it is working, you will need to listen for the motor kicking on and off and watch to see if the door is opening. If you are asking how to check out and order the part, There is an add to cart button you can click to add the damper to the cart and proceed with the order. Hope this helps!

Hello liane, thank you for your question. The damper shouldn't close completely. It should be open slightly to allow some air into the unit. I hope this helps.
