GE Profile MN#PFS22SISBSS Refrigerator was not working. Relay clicking on and off. Replaced control board frige worked and cooled down overnight. Now a relay is clicking on and off again. Temperature readout inside is -41, temp setting can be changed. The readout panel only lights up when adjusted. I was thinking I need to replace the thermostats. Any thoughts??

Thanks for the link. Read the info. The fan is running fine. There is a relay clicking on and off constantly. I read another link that said you should always change both thermo when changing out the main control board.

when the relay is energizing(clicking) the fan moves. so im thinking it's the compressor relay that is clicking on and off...so maybe the thermostat is bad. i find it odd that when first replaced it cooled down no problem. now it's been unplugged and the temp is up in fridge and freezer, but the compressor is not coming on.

If I put the fridge into Turbo Cool Mode it works fine. But once it reaches temperatrure, then it starts clicking non-stop. The readout on the temperature control is intermittent and often the wrong temp. I am back to thinking the thermostat needs to replaced.
