Whirlpool Gold Model GD5NVAXSA01. Refridgerator is freezing food. I have dialed back the T-Stat already.

Anything I should clean or keep clear?

You might have sealed system problems or a bad thermistor. Measure the freezer temperature and post.

If you have a meter, check the resistance of the thermistor 2188819, or just replace it. The resistance value should be on the data sheet behind the front kick panel.

If you could forward a link to any PDF's showing location of various parts, I can take any measurements, etc..
