      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:
      Click here to go to the forum topic with the registration link. If you're interested, register now. Arrive a couple minutes early to make sure your connection is working. Set a reminder for yourself for this workshop so you don’t miss it.  And check out past workshops here: https://appliantology.org/announcement/33-webinar-recordings-index-page/

GE frig model #PSC23SGRB SS

Both freezer and frig are not cooling. Internal light operates on both sides,  I dont believe the compressor is running, digital display is flickering inside the frig, water/ice dispener panel is dead. 

I pulled away from the wall, un-pluged and pluged back in. Still dont think the compressor is coming on, but appraently some kind of water valve is cycling since the water line jumps as I plug it back in. 

Hopefully a common part impacting all of the above. Frig has operated perfectly since we purchased new.

The controls being dead concerned me, but will get a better check on the compressor and condenser fan operation later this afternoon.

Thanks for the part number and tip, I'll check it out tonight for sure.  I was able to find a video that shows the location,  seems pretty simple to swap out.

Confirmed that the condenser fan and the compressor are not coming on. I pulled the board and it does not show any physical signs of heat or other damage such as swollen capacitors. 

I'd post pics , but it doesn't appear I can upload pics from my phone.

I stand corrected, multiple caps were bulging at the top although nothing physically burned. Replaced board, ops check good. 

Thanks again for the tip.

Glad to hear. I have run into a lot of those. So when I read your issue I knew for sure that was your problem.  Thanks for the update.
