Why are the lights flickering and going out inside my fridge?
For model number GFE28GSKHSS

Hello Ryan, thank you for your question. The issue could be with the light switch, PartSelect Number: PS12295821. If that part is replaced and doesn't fix the issue, the light itself should be replaced next. I hope this helps!

My freezer was working fine, but the fridge was running at about 60 degrees so i researched here and purchased a GE refrigerator temperature sensor. When i located the existing one attached to the coils, it was a single, larger cable compared to the two cable GE replacement part. Before i cut the cable on the existing sensor, i want to make sure the thicker cable should contain two wires as well.Thanks in advance.

Hello Thad, thank you for your question. There should be two wires coming from the wires of the old sensor which are connected to the two wires on the new sensor which is PartSelect Number PS304103. The old sensor should not have one cable, but two. I hope this helps.

The largest/widest climate zone bin is freezing food and sodas and has frost in the back lefthand side. What could this be? We have the refrigerator set at 38F and freezer is 5F.

Hi Dennis, thank you for reaching out. First, you need to make sure that the food is not placed directly next to the cold air vent. Then, you may need to check the thermistor, part number PS304103. To determine if the thermistor is defective, test it with a multimeter. The thermistor resistance should change in conjunction with the refrigerator temperature. If the thermistor resistance does not change or the thermistor does not have continuity, replace the thermistor. If it is not faulty, then the issue is most probably with the evaporator fan motor, part number PS12727431, because if the evaporator fan motor is malfunctioning, the cold air from the freezer or refrigerator evaporator coils can migrate through the air ducts to the bottom of the refrigerator and freeze the food. You should try rotating the evaporator fan blades to see if they spin freely. If not, it is likely the motor bearings have seized and the motor will need to be replaced. You can also use a multimeter to test the motor for electrical continuity. If the motor has no electrical continuity, the component will not run, and a new motor will need to be installed. If that does not help, you may need to check the defrost thermostat, part number PS8688283. A faulty defrost thermostat may not allow voltage to reach the defrost heater, resulting in the evaporator coils frosting over and causing a loss of airflow and cooling. To determine if the defrost thermostat is defective, use a multimeter to test it for electrical continuity. We hope this information is useful!

my refigerator was warm but the freezer was cold and working correcttly
I went to a GE repair center to explain my problem, the service center reccomended that I have a techinician come out o look at it. $75.00 for the visit and what ever labor and materials wuld cost.

I went on line to see if there were others having this same problem and found that there were many with the same problem.

After reading some of the ways that people found out what was wrong ...it became a matter of three components, the timer, heater or thermostat.

I tried the most common component and the less expensive one first , the thermostat switch I installed it very easily snipping two wires and attaching the news using wire nuts I used the diagram on this website to pinpoint the component and there has not been a problem since.

fridge side freezes some items
went to your website and viewed exploded view to find the sensor( there are two I just picked one to replace for now), pried the cover off carfully and pulled out the sensor. I snipped the wire in the middle leaving plenty to work with. I shortened the wire on the new piece, spliced the wires together and with some 3M rubberized, tape wrapped them up, replaced the sensor back into the cover and snapped in place.
