Hi, I Have A Problem With This Refrigerator, The First Problem Was That It Was Getting Frozed In The Back Panel In The Freezer, So I Found That There Was No Voltage In One Of The Electric Lines That Goes To The Heating Element, The One That Goes Directly To It, Not The One That Goes To The Thermostat, So I Toke Voltage From Another Circuit, It Was Working , But Then It Never Stoped Heating. Then I Found That Even When It Was Hot Inside, The Thermostat Never Opened, So I Ordered One From Here P/n Wr50x10068 , Replaced, But It Was Doing The Same, I Bought Another One From Ge But Diferent Part Number, The First One Works With 40-30 Degrees, And The Second One With 60-32 Degrees. Now The Refrigerator Is Working But Things Inside The Freezer Are Not Getting Frozed, I Think Is Because The New Thermostat Works In A Higer Temperature Range, But What I Do Not Understand Is Why The Original Didnt Work?please Help Me Out With This I Will Really Apreciate It.
Thanks!!!

Pull off the cover of the motherboard in the back and remove the four pin power connector. Notice which connector pins go to the board pins def. and line. Put a jumper between these pins on the connector. If it now defrosts, you have a bad motherboard AP4436216

Hi Richappy Thanks For Your Reply, That Will Be The Answer To My First Problem When I Had No Power To The Heater Element, But I Solved It Taking Voltage Form Another Circuit, Still Having Power Going To It , Why The Original Thermostat Is Not Opening To Cut The Electricity To The Heating Element?
Is There Any Special Way To Install It?
Thanks!!
