GE Refrigerator Repair – Alliance, OH (GSE25HSHEHSS)

A GE side-by-side refrigerator in Alliance wasn’t cooling at all. The customer called us out to East Cambridge Street to diagnose what had failed. Our inspection revealed the defrost sensor was out of spec and the fridge wasn’t defrosting properly.

The Problem

The customer reported their GE refrigerator was not cooling at all. This is a serious issue that can lead to food spoilage and requires immediate attention.

Diagnosis

We found the defrost sensor was out of spec and the fridge wasn’t defrosting properly. When the defrost sensor fails, ice builds up on the evaporator coils, blocking airflow and preventing the refrigerator from maintaining proper temperatures.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WR50X10065 — Defrost Thermostat
• Work performed: Replaced the faulty defrost sensor
• Result: After replacing it, the fridge should be good to go

Is It Worth Repairing?

Maintenance Tips for GE Refrigerators
