Hi.

Most likely you need to replace the main control board, located at the back of the fridge in the right lower corner behind the metal cover.

The board Part number: WR55X10942

Unplug the fridge before work. Follow the instructions.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for General Electric PSS26MSRASS Refrigerator | AppliancePartsPros.com
