I bought this fridge 4yrs ago and it has been nothing but problems.
Model: GSS25IGNRHWW
About a year and a half ago, I noticed the evaporator fan in my GE fridge would pulse with a loud revving sound. After some research, everything pointed to a faulty main board—apparently a very common issue with GE models (tons of posts online). I contacted GE and got a replacement board.
By the time the board arrived, the issue had mysteriously resolved itself, so I decided to hold off on replacing it.
Fast forward to yesterday: the fan started making that same pulsating noise again. Later in the day, I noticed the fridge kept running non-stop, even after reaching the set temperature (mine is set to 2°F/38°F). It dropped to 0°F/37°F but still wouldn’t shut off. The only way to stop it was to unplug it for a minute. That would pause it for 20–30 minutes before the compressor and fan kicked back on and stayed on indefinitely—until I unplugged it again.
Figuring it was time, I finally installed the replacement main board today—but unfortunately, the issue persists. The fridge still hits the target temp (even lower), but it just won’t stop running.
Any ideas?
