One of the most important components of your refrigerator isthe control panel. It displays the state of your GE refrigerator, and the control lets you adjust how you see it.

So when theGE refrigeratorcontrol panel stops working, it becomes a big problem. Usually, ithappens because of a glitch or power supply disruption. However, the fridge is in demo mode, and the control panel might not respond.

You may need to repair or even replace some parts to fix the problem. However, we’ll help youdetermine where to replace anythingwith this list of reasons and solutions for the GE refrigerator control panel not working.

Dealing with the GE fridge control panel that doesn’t work could be challenging. Besides, there could be a handful of reasons why this issue appears. Still, you don’t have to worry, asnot all seasons signify a problem.

The most important thing is understandinghow your GE control panelworks before jumping to conclusions. To understand how it works, you should set the temperature. Just plug the fridge in and shut thedoor firmly. This provides access to the digital display.

Press the “Colder” or “Warmer” buttonson any side of the panel to show the actual temperature. Then press the same buttons to turn the temperature to your desired range. Usually, yourGE refrigerator wouldn’t display the temperaturerange of the screen.

In particular, GE refrigerators use some high-tech electronic parts in their control panel. Unfortunately, like in all electronic devices, thecontrol panel can experience short-term errorsreferred to as a bug or commonly a glitch.

Power supply disruption is the other reason your GR refrigerator control panel is not working temporarily. You’ll know this is the case from the“Power Outage” indicatoron the control panel.

Some GE refrigerators come with built-in demo or showroom mode. As you might have guessed,these modes are activated on digital display panelunits at the store.

They are also useful when you want to keep the fridge’s light on but turn the rest of the functions off, especiallywhen performing tests or repairson your fridge.

All fridge functions, including thecontrol panel, will be inactiveduring demo mode. Sometimes this mode couldbe active without your knowledge. So as a result, the GE refrigerator control panel might not be working when you try to use it.

Sometimes, the dispenser control panelmay experience an electrical fault, like a short circuit which causes it to stop working. In this case, an entire board could become unresponsive. Or it could be that only some buttons need to be fixed.

The main control board is like thebrain of the GE refrigerator. It is a printed circuit board with many tiny components attached to it which control the fridge functions.

However, the main control board is thelast thing you should checkif the GE refrigerator control panel is not working. Why? Since it’s the least likely reason why the issue with the control panel appears. Besides, it’s the most expensive part to replace.

The main control boardcould suffer electrical faultsthat damage some components. Correspondingly some of the fridge parts will malfunction, including the control panel.

Now, you should be assured that if your GE refrigerator control panel is not working, it doesn’t necessarily mean the fridge is broken. It might meanyou have to replace some parts.

Sometimes when the control panel doesn’t work, it might be because thebasic research hasn’t been done. Toreset your refrigerator, unplug it for about a few minutes and let it rest. It gives your GE appliance a chance to clear its memory. Then, plug it back into the outlet.

Theprocess should reboot automaticallyand restore the fridge to the default setting. If you have an active warranty, you can call the manufacturer to seek and expect advice and possible GE refrigerator repair.

To repair it, you should disconnect your GE Profile refrigerator from the power source, turn it to reveal the back, and trace the cord. After that,undo the screws and the back panel, and locate the disconnect or burnt area on the power cord.

A power supply is one of the common reasons why your GE refrigerator control panel might not work, even though it is not a problem. The control panel will only work onceyou confirm that you’ve read the warning.

Unplug the refrigerator and remove the screwsholding the control board’s rear panel to see if there are any more significant problems with the power supply.

Disabling the demo or showroom modewill help you get the control panel to work again. However, thesteps might differ across different GE refrigerator models.

With some GE fridges, it is enough to unplug the cord and plug it back in. At the same time, some models require you tohold the control lock and precise fill buttonsfor about 7 seconds.

Since the dispense control board is a singular piece, you’ll have toreplace the entire unitregardless of whether the whole board stops working or only one button.

Unfortunately, the main control boardis not a serviceable part. It means you have to replace an entire unit. Once you have a replacement board, loosen the screen on the back panel and gently detach the wires on the old one.

Then, use the soldering iron tofix the wires to the nods on a new board. Remember to check the voltage supply with the multimeter again. The result should be at least 13-14 ohms.

First, unplug your GE fridge and open the lower grill. Thencheck the waterline underneathand adjust it to the right position to ensure it is correctly connected to the refrigerator.

After that, check the top of the GE fridge and undo the screws on the hinge cover. You need todraw out the water dispenser wiresand check if they’ve been burnt or disconnected. If so, you need to repair or reinstall the door wiring.

did you make sure to unplug the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before taking that reading? did you make sure that your multimeter was setup so that the units of measurement were correct?

I have a GE profile stainless steel freezer at the bottom. Had it repaired last Saturday June 28 2015. It was completely not working, rrpairman replaced the motherboard. Both freezer & fridge was working great, now the fridge is little cool temp climbin. Could it be the outlet it was plug in a UL extension cord. Thank you for your response. Dianne ????

Sorry to hear about your troubles. What is the average temperature in the refrigerator and freezer? From what I understand, it is perfectly normal for the temperature to fluctuate a bit. For example, my freezer temp swings anywhere between -4 to 5 degrees.

As far as the extension cord is concerned, as long as it is rated for 15 amps or more (it looks like one of those heavy duty extension cords, not those skinny two prong ones) and it is not too long (like a 50- or 100 feet long), I don’t think it should matter.

Hi kevin, my refrigerator has the same symptom. But my compressor is on when I put hand on it. So far ohm’d compressor all 3 readings read the same 8 ohms.my is Electrolux ei28bs56 could not tell which pin is inverter signal on mother board. I’ll check orange and black wire for 115 or 240 vac. Any other suggestions to help. I do have hand held meter that can check pulses but when I unplugged 3pins plug out from compressor and probe acrossed combination of 3 pins and I did not get any pulse reading. I believe it has to be one of the 3 to dc negative

Hi Kevin. I have a GE Profile Stainless French Door Fridge that the fridge temperature started to drop then the next day the freezer went as well. I saw a youtube video that explained the exact same procedure as you went through. I tested the J15 jumper and the compressor pins and all readings seemed acceptable so ordered a new inverter assembly. Installed it and over the next 24 hours, the freezer/fridge temperatures went from 65/61 to -5/58. The freezer seems to be working again but not the fridge. I think the minor change in the fridge temperature was just due to the cold ambient temperature of the freezer. Any thoughts on why the fridge is not working again?? Fridge is only 5 years old and hate to accept it is done so quickly. Thanks for your help.

Sorry to hear about your GE appliance. Have you tried the diagnostic mode to see if all thermistors are working properly? what about lights and all other functions?

Hi, thanks for your guidance, there is an odd things in my EG fridge, because after defrosting my EG freezer the fan continuing to work! but when I turn off power for a moment, the fan of defrost stops and everything turn to normal (it is ok) . but if I let the fan continue, it works until reducing the temperature and the motor start working again. I am going to find the wire of that fan to cut or… I don’t know what ‘s happened. Board and thermostat are ok.

thank you Kevin, there are 5 wires related to all fans in one part, but It is not easy to find the one that causes the specific fan continuing working! now I turn off for a moment when a quiet weak noise heard, the moment turn off stops it and that is ok but it is not the solution way.!

If you can afford it, you may want to buy a replacement board to try and see if that would resolve your work. I purchase stuff from AppliancePartsPros.com all the time; you do have to pay $9 shipping each way, but if you do not end up using the part, you can return it for full refund.

thank you so much Kevin, Even I changed the board but not any change! I wonder when it is on and works properly but when compressor finished the work and stops, I can hear a weak noise of a fan working at tope of fridge behind the ice-maker of freezer, it is odd and astonishing in the moment when I power off for the moment the fan noise stops.. I am trying to find the wire related to that fan if there is any joined and short circuit.

My ge profile french door refrigerator is not cooling enough the technician said to unplug for 24 hours said it is the motor he said he replaced the motor & sensor. It started to cool but i have a hunch he did not do anything as took so fast i was not there when he fixed it i asked to give me the old part & he said he will but on the receipt it just said sensor & charged me a lot. Am i right to complain?

You also should get a detailed itemized invoice which should include costs for individual parts as well as a labor charge line item. You should not be paying for any item(s) that are not on the invoice.

HELP! My GE profile refrigerator stopped working about 10 days ago, freezer working fine. Repairman came and ordered mother board & fan, he will return on 7/20 to install. Well the refrigerator suddenly started working again today & not sure what to do. The display on refrigerator still shows the cooling system is off- even when you try to turn it on it still says off- but the refrigerator is up to 34, freezer at -2. Should I proceed with repairs? or return parts and pray it continues to work?

our RV guy said the HRS IS FLASHING , the problem is no one in our region will even come to look at it because its in a motorhome, although the motorhome is all electric . our rv guy he would pull it out for them. There is no way we can get it out of the motorhome, we live in Calgary AB any answers thanks.

I do not have a direct experience with that model. However, a quick Google search led me to here (https://www.applianceblog.com/mainforums/threads/15886-FIXED-GE-side-by-side-blinking-HRS-clicking-noise). Though the model is different, your issue sounds similar to the poster’s problem.

All readings on compressor and Mother board come out with in specs. Replaces inverter and all thermistors. Fans working, condenser gets a little warm but never cycles on. Fridge is still warm. Now what?

My GE Profile Mdl: PFSS9PKYASS was not cooling when I returned from vacation. The front panel was flashing 76 71. Seems that was the temperature in the freezer and fridge. I unplugged it and then plugged it back in. Numbers were no longer flashing, but it won’t cool. Al lights, the panel and fans are working.

1. using this test mode, check the thermistor which sends temperature readings to the control board; if the self diagnostic mode does not detect them, it means these components have possibly failed. You should first replace these (they are relatively inexpensive). part number is DA32-00027B

3. check the condenser fan motor (located over the compressor). It needs to be fairly clean to cool the refrigerator. You should try turning the fan motor blade by hand to see if it will turn freely. If it does not turn with ease, you need to replace it (part DA97-07754C). While at it, vacuum the coils.

4. check the continuity on the compressor using your multimeter. there should NOT be an open circuit. Read bullet #2 in the “How to fix a GE profile refrigerator that is not cooling” to see how you can test it. Just know that this component must be replaced by a licensed tech

5. as far as logic boards are concerned, I do not have access to the technical info. But I see that it has two parts (main PBA part #WR55X10965) and (inverter part # WR55X10960). Just buy them both from either RepairClinic.com or AppliancePartsPros.com as they both have 365-day return policy so that you can return the items you do not need.

I do not have my manual Can you please post some pictures step by step on how you were able to get to the compressor and motherboard? My Refrigerator is running and I believe the fan blades are spinning. i hear a quite hummmm that tells me the refrigerator is running. All the lights come on and my front display is running my photos.

4. Best bet is to have the inverter on hand (the link I gave in the post is for appliancepartspros; they are great because if you end up not needing it, you can return it for refund minus shipping)

I have a GE Profile side by side, french door freezer on the bottom (model PGSS5RKZSS). About 2 or 3 weeks ago it started rising in temps. Freezer would get up to about 35 F and the fridge would be about 65 F. After a day or two, it would start working again and cool properly. Then repeat. Repair guy has replaced the control board, and the inverter. Problem still remains.

It’s funny you left this comment because MY refrigerator stop cooling again for the third time! Lights and fans are working so my guess is the inverter board went bad again so I ordered a replacement that should be here in couple of days.

As far as your situation is concerned, did you make sure to get the bad part when the tech made the repairs? I have had some bad, unscrupulous dudes so I always make sure I get the bad part back.

I’ve had this same issue with the lower part of my fridge freezing and top not cooling properly. The problem is that your evaporator fan is not working properly (cooling too much by constant spinning 24hrs.) GE is aware if this manufacturing defect and will replace it free if you contact GE and make a service appointment.

GE profile side by side. When outside temp goes above 70ish, evaperator coils freeze up. Defrost heater works in diagnostic mode. Thermistors all pass diagnostic mode. Cleaned condenser coil it was pretty dirty. Any ideas as to what could he the problem? The fridge works great in the winter but this is the second summer in a row where this freezing up is happening as the outside temp rises.

I have a pgcs1pjxass. I have lights and fan but no cooling in either the fridge or freezer section. But I’m confused by your instruction at Step #4. How do you get a voltage reading at J15 if the fridge is unplugged? Without power to the motherboard, I would expect to get a 0.00vdc, which is what I’m getting. BTW, the compressor studs checked out fine. So I think it’s the motherboard or inverter.

There"s a long list of things to consider when you"re picking out a fridge for your kitchen. Cooling performance, capacity, style -- all of it should factor in before you plunk down thousands of dollars for what will be one of the most visible and oft-used appliances in your home.

The GE Profile Series refrigerator is an attractive appliance with an exceptional array of features, including the smartest water dispenser we"ve ever seen.

Performance was hit and miss, with steep defrost cycles and an ineffective temperature-controlled drawer. Capacity also felt surprisingly cramped, with shelves that were difficult to rearrange.

So, when I tell you that you should consider GE"s $3,100 Profile Series French door fridge because it has a really great water dispenser, I don"t say it lightly. Capable of dispensing the exact amount of water you need, or of simply filling up your glass, pitcher or pot automatically, it"s easily one of the smartest and coolest fridge features I"ve ever tested, and it"s just one of several tricks up the Profile Series" sleeve.

Bells and whistles aside, the Profile Series fridge isn"t perfect. Its cooling performance is solid-yet-unspectacular, and the seemingly sizable 18.5 cubic foot capacity in the fridge compartment feels more cramped than it actually is. While I wish it were stronger on those two fronts, they aren"t serious weaknesses, and they definitely don"t undercut the overall appeal. If you want a high-end appliance that"s packed with features, the Profile Series fridge offers plenty of bang for your buck.

The GE Profile Series fridge is a modern-looking French door model with the expected stainless steel finish and a solid feel to the build. With its LCD touchscreen front and center on the left fridge door, it looks appropriately high-end for its price.

Though I"m generally skeptical towards refrigerators with touchscreens, the one on the front of the Profile Series makes plenty of sense. With a multitude of features packed into that water dispenser, it offers simple, easy-to-use controls without a clutter of additional buttons and dials -- though I appreciated that you still get physical buttons dedicated to basic functions, like switching between crushed and cubed ice, or turning the LED light on and off. If you"re so inclined, you can also upload photos from a flash drive to play as a slideshow when the screen isn"t in use.

Open the Profile Series up, and you"ll find 18.5 cubic feet of storage space inside the fridge compartment. You"ll also find the icemaker packed into the inside of the left door. It isn"t the largest icemaker I"ve seen, but fear not -- should the need for extra ice arise, you"ll find a second icemaker stashed away in the freezer.

Below the pair of adjustable crisper bins sits a third temperature-controlled drawer that runs the width of the fridge. You can choose between three settings: Meat, Beverage and Deli. As you switch from one to another, the drawer"s LED lights will change color. Those colored LEDs will light up each time you open the fridge, reminding you of what you"ve got stored inside.

For your $3,100, what you"re really buying here is this fridge"s impressive slate of features. You get quite a lot of them, from basics like spill-proof shelving and LED lighting to the aforementioned touchscreen, dual icemakers and a temperature-controlled drawer. The true star of the show, however, is the water dispenser. With a couple of nifty tricks up its sleeve, it"s by far the brainiest one on the market, and a killer feature for the Profile Series overall.

The "Auto Fill" feature is even cooler. At the touch of a button, the dispenser can fill up any glass, pitcher or pot until it"s nearly full, then shut off automatically. I tested it again and again with containers of all sizes. It never spilled or stopped short once. Even when I repeated a test with ice already in my glass, the fridge knew just when to stop. It honestly feels a bit like magic, and I"m pretty sure I"d never get tired of it.

One quick side note: you"ll also find the Precise Fill feature in GE"s Cafe Series French door fridge, which also retails for $3,100. However, you won"t find Auto Fill -- GE swaps the feature out for hot water presets for things like tea and soup. Personally, I think I prefer Auto Fill between the two, but those hot water smarts are pretty appealing, too. It"s a shame that it"s an either/or proposition -- all three features in one fridge would be a near-slam dunk.The Profile Series vs. comparable models

GE Profile Series PFE28RSHSSSamsung RF28HFEDTSRFrigidaire Professional FPBS2777RFLG LFX31925STElectrolux EI28BS80KS Total Capacity 27.7 cubic feet28.1 cubic feet27.0 cubic feet30.7 cubic feet27.0 cubic feet

You"ll find more features inside of the fridge, including a "Drop Down Tray" that nestles beneath the butter bin. Pull it down when you need a little bit of extra space in the door. There"s also an adjustable shelf in the body of the fridge with a front half that slides back and out of the way beneath the back half to make room for tall items on the shelf below. That"s a handy feature, but it"s not all that unique. You"ll find some sort of adjustable shelving in most high-end French door models -- though not all of them.

The GE Profile Series fridge isn"t the best performer that"s passed through our climate controlled test chamber, but it was far from the worst. Over the duration of a three-day test with the fridge compartment set to 37 degrees, averages in the body of the fridge stayed right on target, with roughly a 2-degree swing from the coldest average to the warmest. That"s a pretty small amount of wiggle room from one region to the next.

We also test each fridge at 33 degrees, or in the case of the Profile Series, at its minimum setting of 34 degrees. As you"d expect, the average temperatures fell in each region, with the body of the fridge sitting about a degree or so over the target. We did see defrost spikes on that top shelf again -- two of them brought the temperature above 40, but only just barely, and only for about 20 minutes each time.

Sure, the drawer does a nice job of keeping delicate items like meats, cheeses, and fish at an appropriately low temperature -- its core purpose -- but you aren"t getting very much flexibility from setting to setting. That"s disappointing, given that the temperature-controlled drawer is one of the fridge"s key features.

The Profile Series fridge offers 27.7 cubic feet of total storage space, with 18.5 cubic feet allocated to fridge compartment. Those numbers are pretty typical for a French door refrigerator that costs more than $3,000, if not just slightly below par. Still, a smaller fridge can outperform a larger one if it makes better use of its space, with well-designed shelves and easy-to-use storage features.

We started the test over, but this time, allowed ourselves to reconfigure the shelves and rearrange the groceries as much as needed. I"ll stop right here and say that those shelves were some of the most stubborn that I"ve come across, and far more difficult to wedge in and out of place than they should be. At any rate, in this optimized configuration, we were able to make better use of the shelf space in the body of the fridge and pack things in a bit more intelligently.

The result was that all six of the stress test items fit inside on their own, and five of six made it in all at once. It was the pizza box that didn"t make the cut -- at least not for me. Jared Hannah, one of our ever-handy technical editors, took my failure to fit it in as a challenge and spent some time moving things around. Before long, he had the pizza box inside along with the rest of our groceries and stress test items. Clearly, your results may vary depending on your Tetris high score. For the purposes of this test, we"ll call it an even 5.5.

The GE Profile Series French door fridge is only the second refrigerator to get a perfect 10 in our features category (or in any category, for that matter). The first was Samsung"s feature-rich Chef Collection fridge, which costs a hefty $6,000 -- almost twice as much as the $3,100 you"ll have to spend to get a Profile Series fridge into your kitchen.

This isn"t a refrigerator without shortcomings. Sharp defrost cycles and a lack of precision in the temperature-controlled drawer hold the performance back just a bit, and the 18.5 cubic foot capacity isn"t as well optimized as the capacities in other fridges we"ve tested. None of those flaws are deal-breakers though, and they"re easily outweighed by what this fridge gets right. If you want a fully-featured French door model in the $3,000 price range, it belongs at the top of your list.

The refrigerator acts as the hub of the household. It holds snacks, beverages, meal ingredients, and ice cream, drawing heavy traffic throughout the entire day. To streamline kitchen operations at home, the GE Profile refrigerator line stays current with trends while maintaining a balance in form and function. The look, advanced technologies, smart capabilities, and advanced water filtration systems set it apart from other GE refrigerator models.

The biggest difference between GE Profile and Café refrigerators are in the design, finish, and style. The Profile line has a sleeker, more minimalistic look, while the Café choices are modeled more after restaurant-grade appliances. The Profile collection is also a step up from the standard GE refrigerator line that have the standard look, feel, and features.

A new refrigerator needs to have ample space, a flexible and versatile setup, and a clean look to tie into the rest of the kitchen. Read our GE Profile refrigerator reviews to see how these products fit the bill.

With plenty of features and a broad range of mid- to high-end price points, the GE Profile line is best for individual and family households with larger budgets. It is not the most budget-friendly brand, but most models are more affordable than the typical luxury pick. The Profile brand is a considerable resource for shoppers with mid-range budgets looking for a great value.

Reflective of its upper mid-range price point, the GE Profile refrigerator line has premium-tier features, making them optimal performance appliances. The Showcase LED lighting gives the kitchen a high-end feel that also enhances usability. The Turbo Cool setting uses intelligent design to keep internal temperatures at their optimum every time the door is opened.

Special features on upgraded models range from built-in WiFi operation to TwinChill™ evaporators, FrostGuard technology, and a Door in Door with rotating bin designed for easy access to snacks and refrigerated essentials.

A lot of the pros of the GE Profile refrigeration line revolve around the performance and functionality of the appliance. A great interior design leads to more efficient use of space while the exterior design gives the kitchen a more luxurious touch. They are also among the most reliable picks in the refrigeration category.

Counter depth options also allow the fridge to line up most closely with the cabinet line, preventing it from sticking out into the kitchen; however, this is done by losing valuable refrigeration space inside.

The Profile models also come in a wide range of color combinations, including matte options, stainless-steel options, and traditional black and white options.

Within the GE Profile line, there are still several models to choose from. So, how do you pick the right refrigerator? We’ve helped by narrowing the list down to three choices, by category. Here are our top GE Profile refrigerator picks:

Our pick for best overall GE Profile refrigerator is this four-door model. The door-in-door features an adjustable temperature drawer with a bin caddy while the clean lines of the fridge are enhanced by the minimal display over the dispenser, simple pull handles in stainless-steel, and LED wall lighting. This GE Profile French door refrigerator also features built-in WiFi that will alert the connected devices any time the internal temperature drops. Plus, soft-close drawers prevent heavy hands from slamming them shut, and the hands-free autofill dispenser makes refill day much easier.

This GE Profile side by side refrigerator comes with a great, clean look and robust features with a nice and affordable price tag. The exterior carries the stylish, minimalist look that is signature to the Profile line.
