    Refrigerator freezing everything

    Model Number: KSSC48QKS01
    Brand: KitchenAid
    Age: More than 10 years

    My fridg is freezing on both sides. I have changed out the mother board which is where the thermostat is at, so I have been told. it will hold the right temp as long as it doesn't call to cool it . When it does it pulls it down to -7 freezer and 27* in the fridg. So it's pulling down as far as it can go. how do I figger out why it isn't shutting backoff when it
    reaches 0* ? please help!

    The temperature sensing thermistor is not on the board.
    There is one in the freezer and one in the fresh food section.

    Below is a manual which should be close to your unit.

    The control board would have been my most likely cause but you say that you have already replaced it.

    I would double check damper.
    Also check for the correct thermistor resistance at the control board.

    Due to this unit using an inverter type compressor they are difficult to repair/troubleshoot. You may need to get a pro in.
    Just make sure that they have lots of experience with this type of unit.
