Hello
Happy new year. I have a GE profile model number PFSS5NJWASS. Today I noticed the freezer and fridge were not working. Compressor was super hot. Upon inspection the fan had ice on it and once I removed the evap cover the evap was frozen over with ice (white snow like ice). I read numerous posts and did the following tests.
Tested inverter voltage and get 120 volts ac on larger wires and 5.2 volts dc on smaller wires also get 5 volts on j15
I tested the termistors in the freezer and they are all good (took ohm test at room temp and in ice water).
I removed heater coil and have continuity
So my question is how do I test the defrost thermostat without cutting it and if you have any other ideas what to test.
When fridge is plugged back in compressor and both fans turn on.
