Hi everyone,
Thanks for the invaluable help here. Basically, the fridge is freezing things, more specifically around the top of shelf and the first crisper drawer. Near what looks like to be vents from the freezer. I have the fridge setting set to 42f and the freezer set to 8f. The freezer seems to be going non-stop pumping out -22f temps and the fridge is still getting cold. My suspicion is some sort of sensor is out. Side note: The water dispenser on the front isn't working either, but i suspect that is because the line is frozen in the fridge and once the other problem is corrected it will fix itself.Thanks,

Hi Zach, thank you for your question. If the refrigerator is too cold, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. The part that fixes the issue the majority of the time is the bi-metal defrost thermostat. From our website, the defrost thermostat is a safety thermostat in series with the defrost heater and is used to terminate the defrost cycle when the evaporator reaches a specific temperature, usually rated at 38° to 47° Fahrenheit. If the thermostat is defective and remains open circuit, then the defrost heater will not be energized and no defrosting will take place. You will need to test the part with a multimeter to see if it is working correctly. Before you do this, make sure that you have unplugged the refrigerator from the electrical outlet. Set your multi-meter to the Rx1 setting. Place each of the probes on a thermostat wire. When your thermostat is cold, it should produce a reading of zero on your multi-meter. If it is warm (anywhere from forty to ninety degrees Fahrenheit), then this test should produce a reading of infinity. If you do not receive this reading, it will need to be replaced. If this is not the issue, you will need to check the thermistors. To test them, remove them from the refrigerator. The thermistor is normally a plastic encased capsule with two wires attached and may be located near the air inlet. The thermistor will have a specific resistance based on temperature and is therefore difficult to diagnose without the manufacturer’s specifications. Thermistors will produce different multi-meter readings based on their temperature when you test them. The ranges below only apply to thermistors at 32 degrees F. Before testing them, you will need to place the thermistors in ice water for 5 minutes to bring the temperature to 32 degrees F. Set your multi-meter to the Rx1 setting and touch the probes to the terminals, you should receive a reading of 16,600 ohms (+/- 5 percent). If you do not get this reading, you will need to replace them. We hope this helps!
removed flap door in front of icemaker...removed 3 screws with bolt heads...removed one additional screw with bolt head and ice unit slid out. I removed motor unit (pops out no screws). Replaced and had ice within 3 hours.
Thanks to the pictorial diagram, I was able to order correct parts. It was just a matter of removal of broken parts and replacing them. Ice maker now working and air is no longer getting into freezer which was freezing up ice maker. Thanks for timely delivery, now I am able to use ice dispenser, which I haven't used for long time. Thanks
