DSS25KSRD SS GE Adora refrigerator- ice in tray melts and refreezes at the bottom of freezer. food defrosts also, seems like maybe defrost may be running too long and heating up the ice storage bin? Have since turned off ice maker hoping to resolve the issue. this morning the meat on top rack was defrosted, however, i have a bag of ice toward bottom wich did not seem to have melted at all.

It sounds like the # 4 thermistor is bad . You will have to remove the lower inside rear freezer panel ( 2 or 4 screws ) and on the top of the coils , you will see a 1 " long torpedo looking piece , clipped on , with 2 white wires going to it . Part number WR55X10025 . This thermistor , tells the maon control board , the temperature of the freezer coils ( evaporator ) and when to defrost and when to stop defrosting and turn the compressor back on . There is also a defrost thermostat which cuts the heater off to keep from over heating , but I do not believe this is part of your problem . You should also replace the # 5 thermistor , located behind the oval grill , mounted on the lower right side of the freezer . This thermistor , tells the main control board , the temperature of the freezer section .

What are the part numbers for the other thermistor (#5), should I just replace both and the defrost thermostat? I'm having the exact issue.
