Wonderful video. I might replace this preemptively. I was just in there diagnosing a knocking noise but it sounds like it's coming from higher up. Investigating the issue led me to figure out that the fan in the freezer wasn't running properly, and now I know why my fridge wasn't getting sufficiently cold! Gonna order a replacement and do the thermostat at the same time for insurance. Now, to figure out that knocking noise....

Thanks - currently running force defrost. I think this is our issue. Fan kicks on etc, but stops. Freezer is cold, but fridge isn’t. I also couldn’t find how to put this model fridge in test mode anywhere, so I appreciate the walk through.

Thanks for the video. Replaced sensor, the defroster definitely saved time, instead of hair dryer. Fingers crossed.

One other thing to check because I have been going crazy. Fridge has all the same problems but heater and thermister good. Make sure the water drain is not clogged. Seems like a no brainer but that was my issue

Hi there - Thanks for the video! I had to replace my icemaker and even though that wasn't the end goal of this video, it was exactly what I needed to figure out the silly things like removing the drawer, and "do I turn the water off?"

If you unplug the fridge it will not dispens water

Hi. I had all the symptoms you mentioned and so I thought Yeii I can do this. So I replaced the sensor on Friday … unfortunately the fridge is still warm. On the front panel I have the fridge setting in 4 stars and the freezer as well. What else could it be and is there another video ? I am wondering if it couAny help would be appreciated ?

Could be the fan or the door that opens allowing cold from the freezer. You the panel to test all these functions

Yes if you slowly select each option at a time one of them causes it to actuat. I can not remember which function as it's been over a year. Behind the fridge there should be an instruction manual showing each test function

Thank you for illuminating my issues! What would happen if I just did the "defrosting" steps you described? Would that be a short-term fix until I can get someone out to take it apart? Thank you.

That's what I did for months until I replaced the part. And it did fix it

@@daleofalltrades you are a lifesaver-thank you! I've been without a fridge for 2 days and can't get anyone to look at it. When I talked to an actual repair technician on the phone, they were no help whatsoever. I even told him about the ice and frost and he said that wasn't related. Thanks a ton.
