Ge after replace fan still fan not working

GE refrigerator model #pss26sgpass side by side only 3.5 years old. The past few weeks the refrigerator started growling and making weird noises for few seconds at the time, coming in from the freezer side. Later on (starting this past weekend) temperature started going up in both the refrigerator and freezer. We constantly rested the refrigerator trying to bring it to the normal temperature. We replace new fan at the back of the freezer, we changed it. still fan not working. Temperature remains in freezer at mid 20's, in refrigerator mid 50's. We reseted the refrigerator couple of times few different intervals of time. Didn?t help. There?s some air coming out of the freezer side. We also cleaned a part at the bottom of the component I think its called condenser, didn't help. Please help us. Thank you.

    I'm having similar troubles. In addition, my ice dispenser will not dispense ice through the door. It makes ice, just does not dispense.

    Intermittent growling noise coming from back of refrigerator side

  • Anonymous Mar 24, 2014

    THE MOANING NOISE SEEMS TO SOMETIME LAST A LONG TIME AND OTHER TIMES ONLY A SHORT WHILE. BUT IT'S LOUD ENOUGH AT NIGHT TO KEEP US AWAKE. I THINK IT'S COMING FROM THE FREEZER SIDE UPPER HAFT OF FREEZER.

Something to check for. Is the top of the refrigerator door lower than the freezer door? If so the ref. light may not be turning off all the time. Pull bottom panel off to expose hinges. The ref hinge should have an adjuster. Adjust door up to be level with freezer.

I have a GE side by side refrigerator, with an icemaker in the door. The refig is slightly less than 6 years old. I have been out of town for a few days, but today opened the door to get something out...

Seriously? Mine just did the same thing today. The electric on the inside is fine. No cooling. there is a code blinking HRS on the inside. the ice and water were working intermittently the past couple of weeks. wtf?

I found a post describing the exact thing I have going on but it was from 3 years ago.

I have ge side by side model PSS26SGPASS it just thawed out everything in freezer, reading tc in fridge side now, freezer 37 degrees fridge was up to 50 company coming purchased 6 yrs ago help!

I have the exact problem. My unit is 6 years old too - purchased in 2004. I have located, after cleaning the coil under the unit, this is not the source of the real problem. I took the upper cover off which houses the main logic board to find if I flicked the comp relay "compressor" the compressor then turned on. I took amp readings before and after they were .2 without the compressor running and 1.3 with the compressor on. The main board will need to be replaced. Personally I will try to locate the actual relay and replace it on the board if possible.

GE side by side refrigerator. Fridge side not cooling - help!

Hi, they have changed lots of parts, were they defected, did they tested parts for faults or they just change parts, because it's available, there's always a reason why a certain part, go bad. so far you change most of parts in ref. check refrigerant (gas, freon) pressure, check compressor, for faulty suction and high side valve, it's possible your compressor loosing efficiency. or say if compressor normally pump 50 psi. now it's pumping 40 psi. is the refrigeration cycle balance ? is there restriction in your ref. system? is compressor running long enough? plug on ref. let it run for 1hr, listen to compressor for any clicking sound, fans and everything else could be working, be compressor not, compressor could be short cycling (not working long enough) also check voltage in receptacle(outlet) with digital multi-tester, get accurate voltage reading, let me know, could also be a faulty circuit breaker in house (building) not your ref. let me know, system could have very slow refrigerant leak, you could have a very small (slow) gas leak, that's why your refrigerator get hot first, then your freezer, there's a condensate line (loop) that passes through, ref body, close to doors to prevent door gasket from freezing, after few years sometimes develope leaks, cause by rusting. it's very possible there could be small leak in your system. let me know what happened.good luck.

Freezer will not defrost on its own GSL25JFPE

Most likely, the defrost system has failed. There are three components: a defrost timer, a defrost heater, and a defrost bi-metal.
I would have suggest replace your defrost heater.
