The first thing you must know is that your refrigerator should be
set at 37-38 degrees. Anything at 40 or higher and you are risking
food born illness (food poisoning) or spoiling your food. Place your
magnetic thermometer in the refrigerator.
2.
Set your dial on your refrigerator to the second lowest setting. (If
your refrigerator is already equipped with a digital thermostat,
simply set it for 37 or 38 degrees and do not move on to the next
step)
3.
After 2 hours, check your thermometer reading. If your reading is 38
degrees, there is no need to go higher and you are ready to put your
groceries in. Be sure not to open and close your refrigerator during
these two hours or your temperature reading will be incorrect.
4.
If your reading is higher than 38 degrees, move your dial up to the
next coldest setting and repeat the steps every two hours until you
reach the correct temperature for your refrigerator.
5.
Once you have reached the correct refrigeration temperature for your
refrigerator, place the magnetic thermometer in the refrigerator
permanently and watch for changes.
Typically, your
refrigerator temperature will need to be adjusted with the seasons,
a higher setting in the summer and a lower setting in the winter.

There is no frost in the freezer back wall. re: Ge model PSC25MSTASS digital refrigerator setting is set at 37 degrees but refrigerator temperature will not go below at 42 degrees.
re: check damper control. I don't beleive this unit has a damper. It has two separate cooling systems one for the freezer and one for the refrigerator that separates the airflow between the fresh food section and the freeze section during cooling operation.
The refrigerator has two separate cooling systems, one for the freezer and one for the refrigerator, that was the key to solving the problem! That means two cooling fans, one in the freezer and one in the refrigerator. The refrigerator cooling fan was not operating. Replaced the Cover Assembly that contained the fan, Part number WR17X11844.
Can't get temperature to drop below 50 degrees
temperature control settings not working I try to put it at 37 degrees but the control setting will not stay there
