Refrigerator & Freezer Repair

Had a power brownout then eventually a total outage and suspect we had power surge(s) before it went out totally. Lights on inside refrig. No compressor or fans running. Temperature readouts are not illuminated. Power is getting to the main control board, but lack documentation to troubleshoot further.

If the ice dispenser will work (go by sound because you don’t have ice to dispense), unplug the refrigerator then unplug the board than gives you the temperature readouts. Plug the refrigerator back in. If after doing this the refrigerator runs the part you unplugged is bad. If not the main board is most likely bad.

If the ice dispenser will not work post back and I will tell you something else to check if you are comfortable using a voltage meter.
