Hopefully this won't be too long. I am having problems with my fridge. The fridge side wasn't cooling, and I could tell that the freezer side had issues too. The ice in the ice bucket had partially melted and re-froze. At times, the fridge would be warm. Then I noticed the temp numbers were not lit up. If I pressed and released the door switch, the numbers would light up, and the door between the freezer and the fridge would open and the fridge would cool again. The compressor seems to work fine, the inside lights work as well. Intermintently, the water dispenser would not work, but the lights on the control panel were lit. I have not tried to dispense ice as I have the ice maker turned off. I have already broke an ice auger once, since the ice bucket was froze solid. After doing some research on the internet, this seemed to be a common issue caused by a bad mother board. I replaced mother board (part # WR55X10942) and the evaportor fan motor. I read that the fan motor can cause the mother board to fail, so that is why I changed it. So, after putting the new parts in, I have the same problems. I put a thermometer in the fridge side, and the temp fluctuates between 3 deg C and as high as 40 deg C. Not only is it not cooling, but it seems to be heating. Before I replaced the mother board, the fridge sat unplugged for several days and fully defrosted. Is it possible to get a new defective mother board? I don't know what to try next. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance...
