Hello
I am using a GE refrige/freeze, and the normal temperature it said is 5. It has 0 (which is off) to 9 or 10 scale, but I do not which side is lower temperature. Since 5 is too cold, I want to know how to adjust to lower temperature.
Thanks!
Hong

Here are possible parts that could cause the problem GE Refrigerator Freezing Food but the most common is the diffuser/damper that got stuck open and cold air from freezer continously coming in to the fresh food side.
The freezer cools the refrigerator, so you actually get very cold air passing from the freezer to the refrig. The air from the freezer enters the refrig on the top and falls to the bottom where it is drawn back into the freezer. The temperature of the refrig is regulated by a thermostat and a fan that runs when the thermostat calls for cooling. If the refrig thermostat is faulty and causes the fan to run more than it should, there will be a freezing problem in the refrig at the bottom because cold air falls and warm air rises. If the refrig is thermostat is calling for cooling constantly, this will take more cold air from the freezer than is normal. Your freezer temp might be higher than normal and the refrig will be colder then desired. If the fan from the freezer is running constantly I would suspect a bad refrig thermostat.
What the most likely thing causing that is that the air damper that opens/closes to let air into the refrig. section is stuck open and too much air is entering into the ref.section allowing things to freeze, that is a fairly common thing with GE refrig's.
To fix that the air damper would need to be replaced..the exact location of it is,upper left corner of the ref. section on the left side wall at the top.
You will need to check the temperature sensor(s) and the damper. Is the temp display showing it is colder than the selected temp (recommend 37)?? If so it is likely the damper is broken, and it is open --- letting too much air come in from the freezer and getting colder than you set it.
The water can only come from 2 places, the drain is blocked or the ice maker is over filling.The temps are too good to have any other things going wrong. Let me know, Thanks, Sea Breeze
2 possibilties most likely is a bad temp sensor it thinks its warmer in the refrig than it actually is. the next possibilty is a motherboard has gone bad in the unit.
thats a water tank holding water dfor the dispensor, if everything in refrig is freezing quite possible that the water in tank froze as well, which would explain no water,
