No Cooling frig was warm
Read wiring diagram found what would stop power to compressor. Removed thermostat checked for continuity which there was none no matter what position dial was in. Checked operation of remaining components in the refrigerator by jumping the two wires together that are connected to the thermostat, plugged refrigerator back in and compressor kicked right on.

Hello Willie, Thank you for the question. It could possibly a short in the part or loose wiring. I suggest checking the wire harness and wiring before replacing the part its self. Hope this helps, good luck with this repair!

The bottom 3 drawers in the frig are freezing. The frig is not packed full. I'm wondering if it could be the Temperature control listed as number 3 on the diagram. Thanks.
For model number MSD2456GEQ C (UL)us JODEL NO. 12497192ZZ
Hello Matt, thank you for reaching out. The issue seems to be with the Temperature Control Thermostat and you may need to replace it, the part number is PS11743233. The Temperature Control Thermostat regulates the temperature in the refrigerator. If that does not help, we would suggest checking the Evaporator Fan Motor, part number PS11743228. Please reach out to customer service if you need help placing an order, anyone will be happy to assist you. We hope that helps.
Once refrigerator cycles off it will not come back on unless I turn the temperature dial off and back on.
For model number MSD2354FRA
Hello Marie, thank you for getting in touch. According to our research, the issue is with the temperature sensor, part number PS11743233. Replace it to fix the issue. If the thermostat is faulty, it might not be able to detect the temperature drop and restart the cooling process. Also, check the start relay, part number PS11770133. If the start relay is faulty, it might not be able to initiate the compressor's operation after a cycle has completed. We hope this helps.
My freezer freezes up every 3 weeks. Fridge stops cooling. I defrost it. Works again for 3 weeks. Then repeat process. Do I need a thermostat?
For model number MSD2456DEQ
Hello Anita, thank you for contacting us. According to our research, the issue is probably with the defrost heater and thermostat assembly, part number PS11743280. It melts the frost from the evaporator fins and freezer compartment while protecting the refrigerator from overheating during the defrost cycle. Customer service is always available to help you place an order if you are having trouble doing so. Good luck with your repair.
