Rank: Member Groups: Registered Joined: 9/16/2007(UTC) Posts: 1		I have searched yet my frig appears to check out ok. Classic frozen coils resulting in restriction of cold air to the frig side. Yet FC and RC theristor pass diagnostics. Fans run, air baffle open, compressor runs. Bi-metal has contanuity when cold, open when warm. Defrost heater heats when forced via controls. Does this indicate it has to be my control board? Could it some how still be the bi-metal? I defrost manually and months later the same thing. It seems to me it all tests good, yet I know it's not defrosting. So bimetal or control board? I believe I have only one control board for temp and defrost.... Thanks for any direction! Cole:eek:

The problem with your fridge is a bad control board. - The part number for the control board is AP3718042 Gene.
