No ice or water from GE Profile side by side refrigerator freeze

I have a GE Profile side by side refrigerator freeze (psf26mgwc bb) that is about one year old.

This morning the ice and water dispensor failed to operated (they worked at dinner-time last evening). The LED lit when the buttons were pressed but nothing dispensed when I pushed the glass against the actuator.

I unplugged the unit and plugged it back in (several times now) with the same result. The temperature lights flash zero's, for both the freezer and refrigerator, and most of the keypad buttons are inoperable (including the ice and water dispenser - now the LED does not light when these buttons are pressed)

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mark

I had this problem and did 3 things to correct it:

1st: I changed out the Main Circuit Board in the back of the fridge.... very easy to do, but that wasn't the problem.

2nd: I changed out the Dispenser Circuit board, which is behind the touch panel. Also very easy to do, just snaps out. but that also wasn't the problem

3rd: I checked the wire harness connection point located behind the grill at the bottom front of the fridge underneath the freezer side. This is also very easy to do, and son of a ..... that is what is was. Moister from mopping the floor had started to corrode the connections. So I purchases a cheap 3 wire plug and cut out the old and spliced in the new. You don’t actually need the plug, you can hard wire direct but if you ever have to take the door off you will have to cut the wires.

So now I’m the proud owner of an extra functioning Main Circuit Board and Dispenser Circuit board if anyone is in need.

This is my second attempt. I have a GE Profile

After you set it, the display goes back to showing the current temp. Just wait awhile and current temp displayed should change to the temp you set once it has had a chance to adjust. Give it a few hours.

GE Profile Icemaker freezing up; water freezes down inside wall of freezer; icemaker making ice, very slowly, but will not dispense. Water is still dispensing

This sounds like your water valve is not completely closing allowing water to drip and freeze. First check to make sure that the water tube going into the cup of the ice maker is lined up correctly and not causing this problem - if it is lined up correctly then replace the water valve on the back of the refrigerator that your main line is connected to.

GE Profile PSS26PSTA SS freezer problem

Forget the warranty - it is only for the compressor and that is usually five years. Did you check for freezer temp - wet cubes indicates too warm up there. Water dispenser lines may be clogged.

If low temps you may have low refrigerant or a defrost mechanism not working - if not working there should be ice buildup on line entering the evaporator in back of compartment.

My Ge side by side freezer was thawing now it

Might just be a freezer thermostat gone bad by sticking in an open position. If that's the case you will be out of control in temp settings. Hope this has helped!!BB

I have a PSS26 ge profile fridge and it quit making ice

The icemaker is bad . You have an electronic icemaker and the internal boards cannot take the freezing and the heat (freezing moisture) . Just replace the icemaker .

GE side by side with ice and water in door

This is a problem with my GE side by side also. It only happens occassionally and there doesn't seem to be any fix. I've had GE repair service here more than once. It seems that the insulation in the door is insufficient to keep the water line from freezing up. Small wonder GE is part of this awful financial mess.

Ice maker tube freezing up

  • change the water valve on the back of the machine.
  •  the water valve is slowly leaking water up to the icemaker where it freezes and builds up ice, blocking the water flow.

Water dispenser not working but ice maker does

The water line freezes inside the freezer door. There is now an add-on water line heater you can install to thaw the line.
