Great additions my broh! Ok, now who's gonna put together a Frigidaire Fridge survival kit? Volunteers?

must add this samsung made French Door GE manual

Great tool and source of info, thanks for putting it together.  This info on the capacitors was very helpful a quick way to check board status vissually, what a bad capacitor will look like, (Durham contributed this info)

If youre new like me here is some info on what models were troubled with bad mutherboards.

Awesome resources. Thanks for making this available.  You just made my life a little better.

GOD bless u for this life saving information

Hi samurai, love your site . I am also a student . this was an excellent explanation on checking for a bad inverter through elimination of various meter readings. it armed me well when I went to diagnose this GE Profile with this same inverter. I feel I missed something along the way of the results I should have gotten with my meter tests though. 1.)  I was getting 120 Volts AC going into the inverter so that was good. 2.) I checked the DC voltage coming from the mother board at both the J15 connector and the harness connection going into the inverter at the inverter and the DC readings were there but were fluctuating up and down ? not a steady reading like in your video. the readings were fluctuating up and down quickly from 4.2 to 5.6 with different readings that stayed in between the 4.2 and 5.6 range. I assumed that this was an ok reading. 3.) I checked all three pins on the compressor and got 9.6 ohms at all three so I figured the compressor was ok at this point also.   So I replaced the inverter board and the results were the same , the compressor was still not running. I was thinking I mis diagnosed the issue with the fluctuating mother boards DC readings but am not sure. by the way all of the fans are working properly also. at this point I was going to go back to the fridge and replug the fridge back in and wait a half an hour and then recheck the fridge to  see if its cooling. Someone mentioned to me that these inverters can sometimes take 20 minutes to 25 minutes to energize back up after replacing them but I am not so sure about that but am willing to try any thing at this point. I'm figuring a new mother board at this point was originally the problem. any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
