Try unplugging refrig for a few min , then plugging back in . This will reset the adaptive timer and at least get the refrig working . The adaptive timer , is located in the control panel . Pt # 4388932 . To replace this board , remove the knobs and pro the top of the panel outwards . Remove the 4 screws holding the panel ( 2 are on the inside by the light bulb ) . You should now have access to the board .

Freezer not freezing

If freezer is icing up, you might have a defrost problem. Frost free models have a heating element that is controlled by a timer to automatically defrost ice, defrost timer turns on defrost heating element every 12 hours to melt ice in freezer and allow good air flow.
You can test defrost element with an ohm meter(located inside freezer coils-will have two wires going to a plug connection), if OK replace defrost timer (located in various places depending on make and model

My GE Side by side is not cooling. I believe it is the defrost heater, how do you replace this?

The defrost thermostat is located behind the freezeer firewall, on top of the evaporator.

It is part 240 on the diagram below:
