Hey gang, having same problems I went through last fall. For some light reading and a background, checkout this thread regarding the first round with "The Bastard"... So for those keeping score, here is what went down lately: Approximately 2 months ago, began to notice freezer compartment temps fluctuating a lot greater than previously. about 3-6 deg above the recommended 0. But they often returned to 0 for a few days. FF section stayed around 37, maybe creeping up to 38 or 39 deg. So no major concern at that time. within the the last 2-3 weeks, temperatures have stopped fluctuating and are now hovering around 11 in freezer and 40-43 in FF section. It looked like a steady progression from the lower (proper) temps to the current high values. My question is this: Do I replace the thermistors again? or is there an issue in the freezer with the defroster heater, especially as the temps have slowly and steadily increased without the wild fluctuations I had seen with the original problem a year ago? Any insight form the appliance gurus in the crowd would be greatly appreciated. thanks! -Bill
