General Electric WR55X10025 Temperature Sensor Review

I have a 6 year old GE Arctica side-by-side refrigerator that has intermittent problems maintaining the temperature. Some days the temperatures in the fridge and freezer are around 55°F and 28°F respectively, and other days it's 35°F and 5°F where they should be. I replaced the main control board which usually causes this problem but in this case it didn't solve the problem. The next most likely cause of this intermittent temperature control problem is thermistors (temperature sensors). So I…

My 17 year old fridge was constantly iced over and couldn't hold the temperature. About 18 months ago I replaced a faulty heater coil so I knew it wasn't the problem. I decided to call the service and at least diagnose what's wrong and decide if it's worth it. The technician determined that the thermistors on the side of the freezer were faulty and offered $350 to fix the problem. I reluctantly agreed, but since he didn't have the part he couldn't get his system to let him know when it was…

My GE side-by-side PSW23PSSCSS has two of these temperature sensors in the freezer and two in the fridge. Internet gurus have pointed to temperature sensors as a likely cause of cold store evaporator coil icing. (This fridge has a complex control system with separate coils for the fridge and freezer compartments; simpler systems just bring cold air from the freezer side.) If this fix doesn't work, the following recommended steps are: $300 circuit board replacement -- First, I'd go over it think
