My fridge is only 18 months old.

We had the same problem for 3 weeks now, FRIDGE is 47 degree, but ice built up on the inside wall around the fan(or the cover evap asm). First a technician came and replaced the Mainboard, that did not help. last week ordered 2 parts WR23X10175(switch light), WR17X11915(cover evap asm). Received it last Friday, waiting on someone to put it back on.

Now, the water dispenser quit working, when I pressed on it, could hear the water sound but no water came out and found water on the floor instead! It was working fine earlier this morning. We had the water leaking problem before, 3 times to be exact, the water lines on the bottom poped out, we pushed them back and it worked fine.

Is this related to my warm fridge problem? Is the 'cover evap asm' a victim or the cause of all this?

Please Help!

Thanks,
Chris

My fridge also had ice around the evap cover in the lower left corner. I had to get a hairdrier to melt it last time, but used a hammer this time. It seems bad that there is such a large ice build up, and I wonder if moisture or ice is causing the fan to break. Basically I wonder if there is a root cause, and fan failure is just the symptom?

Thanks for your help, very much appreciated. I have a couple of other questions...
Is this kit a self-install? And is it likely to be a root cause for the fan failures?

Thanks
Richard

Hi tklcwan

So you got a new evap assembly (big white piece with fan in the back of it) and also some new extra piece that keeps the ice from forming? Can you describe the second piece please? I can't find a picture or any details about whether it's possible for me to install on my own.

Thanks and good luck with your fridge!

I have the GE Profile psf26pgta, I bought it in Dec 2007 and noticed right away that the frig did not cool, but the freezer was fine, we did notice ice building up in the left lower corner. We had the tech come out and he installed the modification kit. The refrig had been working fine since then. In Feb 2009, I placed the refrig in storage when I deployed and was planning a move. Well the move is done and the refrig is plugged in and we are back to the frig side not cooling. It is set at 37 deg but a seprate thermometer says its about 44 degs. I pressed the door switch and I can hear the fan kick on, also I turned on the Express Chill for 45 mins and the front fan works also. So what now?
