How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator before accessing sensors.

Steps:

1. Verify actual temperature: Place an accurate thermometer in the refrigerator and freezer to compare actual temperatures to the display.
2. Check sensor placement: Locate the compartment thermistors and ensure they are not touching warm items or blocked by food.
3. Inspect for damage: Look for cracked sensor housings or loose clips.
4. Test thermistors: Disconnect and measure resistance at known temperatures. Replace any that are significantly out of spec.
5. If sensors are good: The main control board may be misreading inputs and could require replacement.

Refrigerator runs constantly and is too cold or too warm, temperature does not match setpoint.
