I have a GE side-by-side refrigerator that continues to freeze, then thaw, then freeze and repeats the cycle over the course of several days. I have defrosted it numerous times, I have also replaced the thermistor on the defrost coil behind the back panel and it continues to do the same thing.
I tested The thermistor that I removed and was within OEM range.
Over the past week and a half I’ve been monitoring the temperatures quite often and have found that it will run down to 0° for several hours if not a day or so, makes plenty of ice but then it, I believe, kicks into its defrost cycle and randomly stays there for a few hours if not a day or so. When it does this I have a temperature gauge inside in it hovers in the mid to high 20s, sometimes low 30s.
In addition to the new thermistor, I’ve also cleaned the condenser coils very thoroughly, replace the ice dispenser solenoid and insured that the ice door closes properly but the problem still persists. My next step is the defrost timer but wanted to check here before I continued down the path of buying parts with the hopes it’ll fix the issue.
I’m a fairly technical person so if there are some tests I can do with a multimeter I am all for it. Thanks in advance!!
