GE Profile Refrigerator PFSF2MIX: GE Profile Auto Defrost Problem

Tue, 19 Dec 2023 05:28:50 -0700

I’m having similar problems with GE Profile PFSF2MIXBWW bottom mount freezer refrigerator. Auto Defrost seems to have gone nuts. When working properly, it can hold 0F freezer / 40F refrigerator. But then it goest to 55F/55F freezer / refrigerator. Thermistors and heater resistance check OK. I have replaced defrost thermostat - no difference. I replaced the control board earlier after a hard failure - the entire unit was not running.

Have you found a fix?

GE Profile Refrigerator PFSF2MIX: Ice maker inlet tube keeps freezing up GE PFSF2MIXAWW

I just got this fridge second hand, I turned it on and got it down to temp before connecting the water. It wasn’t allowed to freeze outside during the move. It has made four or five batches of ice, now the inlet tube in the freezer keeps freezing up, it freezes right where it pours into the cup and into the mold. I thawed it with a hair dryer, it made one batch, now that tube has ice in t again, it freezes in the tube shape and the even freezes in the shape of the water flowing into the cup. The filter is out, the bypass plug is installed it’s place. The previous owner was on a well with some iron, I’m feeding it with RO water at 45 psi. The shape of the icicle sort of look maybe the valve is not closing all of the way? Thoughts?
