i dont know how but after unplugging all the connections on control board and putting them back on the fridge was still blinking with the 0's

But i tried one last time to program the control board and all of a sudden boom everything was running again.

At room temperature it should be open. On this thermostat that is 56,000 ohms.
It must have this resistance and not infinite ohms.
When frozen it should be 0 ohms.
You can hold it onto an ice cube to close it.
Also if it is deformed/bulged then it ios bad even if it tests out OK.




Hi thanks again for the quick reply.

Any videos on how to take it out like I said earlier I can't get the top of the thermostat to disconnect from the fridge I don't want to break the plastic

I would say the temp in the fridge is room temp ur the freezer is probably around 10 degrees

Yes i meant defrost thermostat shorted. So i guess that's normal because the temperature in the freezer is not cold at all right now. there is nothing frozen in the freezer the coils are fine.

I would buy the control board but im not sure how to take the top pannel off to replace it. The control board for this model is inside the fridge on the top, i can remove the plastic cover to change light bulbs but can't remove the rest of it. I wanted to check to see if there is a burn mark on the control board then i can definitely know its no good. What i dont understand is if the control board is shot, how can it be displaying those flashing 0's even.

Compressor is not running neither are the fans but they do run on the service test.

All service tests seemed fine except the first one

Control board defrost shorted.

So I guess it's the control board ? Could a wire just be Loose or its fried ? Could it be other problems.

Thanks for the quick response

If I unplugged and plug in I hear the vibrating sound for about 10 secs before it shuts, no clicking noises or anything after that

Hi my fridge all of a sudden stopped working it is no longer cooling anything

The temp for both fridge and freezer are flashing 0's

the only thing I've tried is unplugging it for 5 minutes and pluging it back in

I took pictures to show the problem and the back.bottom cover to shown inside of the fridge.

I hope it is going to be an easy fix as my stuff is starting to defrost this happened last night
