The light is on when you open the refrigerator door. The compressor relay was replaced with a new one and there is no change. No cooling in the frig. and no freezing in the freezer. What could be the problem? Temp. control? Please help? Thanks

Replace the thermostat if the compressor would start. Remove the wires from the compressor and check for 120 VAC between those wires while the thermostat calls for cold. If there is proper voltage then the compressor itself is bad. - The part number for the thermostat is AP3140355 Here are the break down diagrams and Replacement parts for GE TDX11SNYARWH \| AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

Thanks Gene. I bypassed the thermostat switch and the compressor started. I ordered the new switch and I will install it when it arrives. Your post response was a great deal of help. Thanks again. I'll let you know how the new part works.
