Have you tested the D'stat(Defrost thermostat)?

The recall reads (in part):

GE Consumer & Industrial places a very high priority on product quality and customer satisfaction and thus continuously assesses our product reliability.

Therefore, if the main circuit board fails, GE Consumer & Industrial will replace this part free of charge to the consumer until further notice.

The models affected are side-by-side plastic liner, side-by-side metal liner, bottom freezer two door and bottom freezer French door. The models were produced between May 2005 and August 2006 (HH – RL serial range) and are included in this program.

Potential Additional Covered Parts:

Specific parts involving the failure of the main board are included in this program. These parts are limited to the following:

-Evaporator Fan failure, only if accompanied by a Main Board failure

-Dispenser Board failure, only if accompanied by a Main Board failure

it sounds as if the ice door is not closing properly. Check the little rubber door seal to see if it is sealing properly. If not try a hair dryer to soften it. Otherwise you have to buy a door kit.

no dont do it GE is just bad news . if you must by ge make suer you buy the extended warr .and keep it current YOU WILL NEED IT ! ....... what one should buy? it does not matter , there all the same refrig inside ,just just STYLE you pick DONT FORGET EXTENDED SERVICE PLAN !

Replace the damper assy, in the Refrigerator section. The damper door is stuck open. Very common problem on these refrigerators.

There is a cheap repair manual for this model listed on eBay. The item number is 200262539606.

Milk is a very delicate product. If you store it on an upper shelf it will not stay as cold as storing it on a lower shelf. The temperature you quoted for the refrigerator is satisfactory. Making sure the condenser under the back behind a removable panel will help the system run more efficiently and save on your electric bill also. Also behind the veggie drawers on the left bottom of the refrigerator compartment is a vent which returns the air from the refrigerator to the freezer to be cooled. Check and make sure there is nothing obstructing the air flow at that point.
