Your defrost heater is on the bottom of the freezer. Syptoms point to a compressor shutting down. Either a compressor going sour, or the motherboard shutting down.
You might want to look at the back side of the motherboard for bad solder connections at the power relay. Or you can repost this as an intermittant problem. May be someone else has experienced this problem.

Thanks - But - both freezer + frige cool perfectly 95 % of the time. If it was refrigeration problem, wouldnt it affect more than just the small section of the freezer where the defrost heater element (I assume there is one) is located?

Should get a pro. to look at this, seems like a refrigeration problem. You can measure the freezer temperature and post.

GE side/side PSC25MSSASS. Ready to call the repair guys. Unit only 3 years old. Freezer/Fridge work great til about 1 day a week, the upper 1/4 of the freezer warms up and stays that way for a few hours. Then everything freezes up again and all is cool for another week. I would prefer to avoid "trial + error" and get this fixed. My wish? Can you all tell me the simple repair answer if there is one?

For this "problematic" refrigerator, put a 100 joule suge protector on the outlet. Available at Lowes, $12.95 a blue box made for appliances. Make sure it is designed for appliances.

The fridge came back on, but I think I'd better change the thermistor ASAP.

How can I put my articles on "Sticky? I have written quite a few articles for a magazine in 4 state area, which is Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma. After thirty years in the Service business, I am sure that my information to the customer would be very valuable. Tom ApplianceEducator.com

It seems like your freezer thermister may be bad. You can test this right from the motherboard by checking the schematic lacated behind the front panel. If none, you can go to the "sticky" GE refrigerators and my article "The South Jersey " schematic to get the pin #s.

What fan are you talking about the one in the freezer or the one next to the compressor? Tom ApplianceEducator.com
