Hi My Ge profile refrigerator (model PSC25SGSA-SS) is not getting cold enough :freezer-5-6 , refrigerator-45-47. Here is what i know: 1-compressor-running 2-compressor fan-running 3-compressor coil- cleaned 4-evaporator-no ice build and is ice cold 5-evaporator-fan running 6-defrost thermometer- just replaced 7-defrost heat bulb-just replaced 8-temp sensor on evaporator-just replaced 9-control board -visually checked “good” no burned solder joints, no resistors burnt, no capacitor bulging at the top. 10-when i adjust the temperature on the freezer or refrigerator side higher. The refrigerator does turn off the compressor and fans. 11-when i replace the defrost thermometer the freezer side got to 0 to -2 but refrigerator side never got below 42 12-test the door switches on both door- working properly. I am at my witts end, please advise. thank you
Hi @khoaadams , Which evaporator sensor did you replace? The one in the freezer compartment or the one in the refrigerator compartment? There is a temperature sensor (maybe two - not sure what a shunt sensor is) in the refrigerator compartment as well as in the freezer compartment. part # 235 & 237 - fresh food section Have you checked that the temperatures being displayed are accurate by placing a thermometer inside the refrigerator compartment, just in case it is a faulty temperature being displayed? If the evaporator unit in the refrigerator section is not getting cold enough then maybe it is a faulty valve assembly - part 988 - sealed system and motherboard section. I think that this valve controls the amount of refrigerant that flows to the evaporator unit in the refrigerator compartment.
