My refrigerator is set to highest temp possible, but it maintains an internal temp of 32...freezing the food in the frig and not allowing the water dispenser to operate. Everything I've read is pointing to replacing the damper assembly. Is this correct or do I need to replace the motherboard as well? Thanks. Mike

You may want to take it apart and check the air gate. It is very common situation when it brakes. - The damper assembly Part number: AP3775595 Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for General Electric PSI23SGMAFBS Refrigerator | AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

It's running down the back of the inside of the frig. very slowly. Read on some of these forums that it could be a clogged freezer drain. Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Mike

So it does not explain water in the refrigerator part. Make sure the water tank (#810 on the diagram) is not leaking. Check the door seal and make sure the door is always closed properly. Opening the door too frequently can cause the condensation too. Gene.

The part comes with the water tubes inserted into the tank. They seem to be pretty secured to the tank...before I pull too hard on water tubes, can or should these be removed from water tank. Trying to avoid replacing water lines and just replace the tank. Thanks again. Mike
