If anyone else looks here, I had the same problem. Disconnected the drawer plug and everything worked again except for the meet, beverage, cheese panel. I saw a repair video for how to replace that module, so I pulled the module off using that video and found the connector sitting in water inside there. When the ice machine melts or the water dispenser overflows, it runs down onto that module and inside it. The water pools and shorts out the module. Going to replace the module and hope we don’t short it out again. It isn’t sealed. Poor design.

Just unplug the plug behind the door and all light and water will work I am still trying to figure out what part is causing this but all light and water is working. Hope this help�� I will post the part needed soon once I look into this further. Thank you very much. My fridges lights went out and this fixed it. To provide a little more detail for anyone else, the "meat/deli" drawer at the bottom left has a white plug underneath the plastic cover. Just take the entire drawer out, and remove the small plastic square cover located on the backside of the drawer. unplug the plug and reinsert it. The lights should be working.

They are very small wires and it was easy to get them clipped. I guess from the door opening and closing 1000 times however, I spice them take them all up and everything is back working.

I had the same issue. Took the meat drawer tray out, unplugged the wire and everything started working…. We will see if the ice maker and water get stupid… to early to tell…

Having the same issue, no lights, no ice, no water, and cool but not cooling properly. Unplugged the meat drawer harness but it didn’t help. Anything else it could be? Anyone else still with issues after the harness unplug?

It was the black wire. I wasn't very confident in my work, so I brought in a repair guy. At first he claimed I have to replace two computers because they're fried. I told him that I think I'll try replacing the wires but asked if he can show me how he'd remove the compartment for the harness. While he's showing me how to do that (it looks complicated!), he found the black wire was snipped. He fixed it and it's all working!

Thanks the only problem in my situation ligths are working but not the water, and if I connect the display for meat door goes back to the errors I had before, I think I have to get the board for the meat door.

Okay so I was having the exact same issue so I figured out how to pop that display off and unplug it but the water still won’t work. Any ideas?

I have been having the same issues, water, ice, no lights etc. I keep unplugging the sensor in the meat drawer and everything works again but only for a few days and then back to no water, lights, ice etc. Do you guys think its the wire harness or the board that needs to be replaced? thanks everyone this thread has helped a lot!
