This sensor (Temperature Sensor, Thermistor, Refrigerator Temperature Sensor) sends the temperature reading of the compartment to the control board. If you notice your refrigerator is too warm, too cold, or not defrosting properly, then there may be a problem with your sensor. The temperature sensor can break from material fatigue or through normal use, and should be replaced. It is attached to the evaporator and control housing in your appliance. It measures approximately 1.25 inches long with 18 inch wire leads, and is constructed out of plastic. This part comes in white, beige. It includes the sensor, with wire leads.

The Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM replacement part for some GE refrigerators. It is responsible for circulating air over the evaporator coils, which are responsible for cooling the refrigerator's interior. Causes of a bad evaporator fan motor can include bearing failure, motor burnout due to overheating, or electrical issues. A malfunctioning fan motor can lead to temperature fluctuations, frost buildup, and ultimately, reduced cooling efficiency.

The refrigerator was too warm. The drawers where vegetables and fruits are kept were being frozen. The vents blowing cool air into bins were iced up.
Took the drawers out of fridge and unscrewed the support rails for drawers and unscrewed inside back wall of fridge. Removed cover on blower fan ~ unplugged fan. This took 45 mins. Left refrigerator unplugged and let thaw out. Replaced with new fan 5 days later. Plugged in new fan. Then
Plugged in refrigerator to make sure it would work. After 15 minutes, unplugged fridge and put rails and drawers back. Total time 45 minutes. Plugged refrigerator back in and let run 24 hours.
It took 5 days to get part due to snow storm delaying delivery. It works perfectly. Our GE will be 10 years old in August.

After power outage, my refrigerator would not cool after power came back.
After looking up what might be the problem, I ordered a new control
board. It was extremely easy to replace. Unfortunately it was not operational. I had to replace my refrigerator. The return process was very easy and my refund was processed quickly.

Refrigerator would warm up while freezer got colder
Repair man thought it was the control board and an issue with a relay on the board. Purchased the new board but found out the board was fine, and it was the recirculating fan that would go out intermediately.

Tried ordering that part from Part Select since they have been great, but GE discontinued the part and their was not a replacement available. After much research, found the new replacement part number and ordered that, it went in quickly and for now seems to have solved the problem.

Customer Repair Stories

Condenser overheating prevented refrigerator from cooling properly
Unplug the fridge. Open the panel on the rear bottom of the fridge. Find the fan in the middle, facing the condenser on the left and coils on the right. Push the tab down, on the bottom of the plastic translucent bracket holding the fan, and pull the fan halfway out. Note where the wires run, so you when you replace the fan, it fits properly. Also note which side of the fan faces the condenser. Unplug the two connectors, and pull the fan the rest of the way out. One connector requires you to squeeze the sides. Reverse these directions to put the new fan in. Plug the fridge in to verify your installation. The fan will not start immediately, but will start within a minute. Replace the rear panel.

Sticking Light Switch
I applied some tips learned by reading other reviews. So before I started I grabbed my trusty vise grip pliers and a small screw driver. I locked onto the switch actuator, the part that the refrigerator door pushes in, with the vise grips and pulled on it just hard enough to get the screw driver inserted in the right side to push in the catch clip so the switch could be pulled out further each time the catch clip was depressed to the next detent. Then I used the screw driver on the left site to encourage the switch past the detents on the left and very quickly the switch was out of the mount. The wires from the refrigerator pulled out with the old switch. I unplugged the old switch from the wires and plugged in the new switch and shoved the new switch back into the mount, wiggled it a couple of times to make sure it was secure and the job was done. Once I applied the vise gripes at first, the whole job took less than a minute.
