If the icemaker refill solenoid does not close properly or stays open too long excess water enters freezer compartment and that will freeze over the ice making machine plus other areas of freezer. There is an adjustment on the ice maker to regulate the amount of water going in - locate the screw (behind front panel of maker) and turn counter clockwise to lessen time of fill operation). Problem is not with the GE

something sticking out of freeser blocking door close. I've had the same problem many times.

Have you checked for ice on the edge? also check the seal. they can warp and cause problems. Last try, is the door warped, like, did someone close it on something?

If your knocking sound like like a ding of a bell and then stop once started and rings again when it stops, the internal compressor motor mounts have come loose. These mounts are just spring mounts that are pressed into the bottom of the motor and if the refrigerator during handling or shipment has been bounced badly, these spring mounts can become loose. These other cause for knocking is the comressor shaft probably sheared. This is a rare occurance but I have found it and it could explain the not cooling. If your refrigerator is inside of the warranty call the toll free number and pay the minimal charge and have factory trained technician install an new compressor and filter drier (pencil drier/filter). If it is not inside the warranty period, the cost to repair the refrigerator will normally cost more than simply replacing the unit with an new one.

Sounds like you have outside air coming into the ref. if you have a water and ice dispenser the flap were the ice shoots out might be getting stuck open or your freezer door might need to be adjusted (it might be misaligned) I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jaime_a0afdb97baa63a3d

This sounds like the same issue I had with mine. I didn't fix this myself, I had an appliance repair guy come out to check it out and he said it was the condenser. He fixed it in about an hour and a half, only because he had to defrost all the ice in the back of the freezer. He charged me $270.00, taxes included, for the work and the issue has not come up again. He told me once this is replaced I should get another couple years out of the refrigerator.

I had the same problem it is not the defrosting I don't think your water tube is missing the cup for the water or it is almost missing it I will tell you what I had to do I removed my cup and spaced the clear water spout so it would just run derectly in the ace tray. It solved my problem. For me it was just common sense after it almost drove me crazy.

There is no defrost timer on a GSH25JSXBSS Can you provide an actual freezer temperature? Feel the base of your ice maker to see if possibly the heating element is staying on after dropping the ice into the ice bin and look for the ice maker to see if excess water is flowing into ice bin once it refills. Are other items defrosting in the freezer due to extended defrost? I am here should you need me, Thanks John Tripp Appliance 911

ice on food means door was left open for extended period of time and then closed. When door is left open humidity forms on food. when door is closed again the humidity freezes and becomes thin ice

In the freezer or frig

Your defrozed cycle seems to be not working. Means there can be problem with heater , timer or defrzed board or defrozed thermostat. You have to open panel from coil to diagnosed this.

Model number? Sea Breeze

If the ice maker works and the dispenser does not the most likely cause will be the=> WR57X10032 Dual Water Control ValveIn rare cases the water will freeze in your water tank or iside of the freezer door but if this has not happened before and you are seeing no extreem cold temps in lower half of refrigerator section where the water tank or coil of water line that cools the water before it reaches dispenser you will possibly resolve this problem by replacing the dual water control valve. Let me know should you have questions, Thanks Sea Breeze

You were on the right track! You will need to replace the "defrost thermostat". Here is the part you need.

Look into the freezer at the rear wall for frost buildup as a layer on outside of that panel. Is the frost layer there? The most likely for temperature rise in the freezer and fresh food section of a GE refrigerator is a defective defrost control, defrost heater and defrost thermostat. The model number listed as your model on your post is not listed as a product sold in the USA. Can you find your model number printed around the fresh food section door somewhere?http://www.geappliances.com/finder/trefrig.htm If you have other problems that you would like me to help you with please respond and I will be here to answer them for you. Should you find the model number please post the number and I will help you locate the parts and there location, Thanks Sea Breeze

Hi Alan,You need to check the wires on the back of the dispenser console to be sure that they are seated correctly. If the wires are all OK, you will need to replace the display console. Here is the part to order.The part comes with a 365 day, any part, any reason return policy.

HI.DO BASICS FIRST .CLEAN CONDENSER UNIT FIRST THOROUGHLY.INTERMITENT FAULT IS ALWAYS A BIT DIFFICULT TO DIAGNOSE.TRY IT IF OK U HAVE CRACKED IT BUT IF SAME THEN C WEATHER THE MOTOR AND CON/UNIT IS WARM WHEN DEFROSTING IF COLD IT COUD BE A LAZY DEFROST TIMER OR T/STAT THEN HEATER AND FAN.GOOD LUCK ALI
