Model # GSS25LGPA_WW has (for the second time) gone above freezing temperature (32 degrees plus) in the freezer. The first time it happended, we unloaded all frozen food and turning down temperature control to a colder setting "8" (normally at "2"). Overnight it went back to freezing and everything was OK. Last night it happend again with the temp going above freezing in the freezer (even with the setting still at 8). Help.
It sounds like the defrost heater is burned out. Remove the inside back cover in the freezer to see if the coils are frozen up. If so, more than likely your defrost heater has bit the dust. It is located at the bottom of the inside coil of the freezer.
Also, you could be have a clogged condensor coil. It is located on the out side back of the Fridge. You need to remove the panel from the lower part of the fridge and do a thorugh cleaning.

Cerfer39,
thanks for responding. Had the repari guy out to the house today and he said it is the electronic control board. He said this is quite common with GE and other manufacters. He seem very confident that this was the problem and has replaced numerous ones before.....Also worthy to note that the refrigerator part of the frig also went out last Friday, so the whole system went "belly up".

Hi. I have a GSS22SGRF (surprise....2 years old!). Anyway, the howling doesn't bother me so much (I have a beagle) :-) but I do have to defrost the freezer coils every week. I have found a green wire with a yellow stripe sort of hanging down at the bottom of the inside freezer compartment and was looking for a wiring diagram to see what it goes to. Any ideas on where to find one?
