Frigidaire FSC23F7D Side by Side Refrigerator Logo

Anonymous Posted on Oct 03, 2011

I have a Frigidaire model number PLHS67EESB9 side by side refrigerator. About 4 months, I has the water dispenser paddle replaced by a trained technician. Recently, the when the freezer door was opened and closed, the ice dispenser would activate as if the ice dispenser paddle was being depressed. I found that with the door open, I could activate the ice dispenser by pushing the button on the inside of the door (controls the internal light). Over the course of a week, it slowly got worse and the ice dispenser would run for a couple minutes each time the freezer was opened and closed. I unplugged the fridge and took the front panel off to look at the ribbon cable / circuit board. I did not remove or unscrew either of the circuit boards. When I put it back together and plugged it in, it hummed but ice dispenser didnt turn. Took it apart again and when i put it back together, there is no power to front panel. Not sure what to do next to determine root cause of problem.

Start by looking at the circuit boards for any sign of cracks or a trace coming off the board. Also, check all the ribbon wires for any signs of a break, corrosion, and so on. As soon as my database comes back online I will look to see if I have a service manual for that unit and any test procedures that you may do. Also, look at the door switch for any shorts or wire breakage. Post back any results to me.
Regards,
Richard
