Food freezes, ordered a complete damper assembly, but was the wrong style. The one I received, and was told was the replacement, did not have the cutouts for the downdraft into the fruits/vegetable containers. Took the old one apart and found the shutter door broken. Used the handy/dandy super glue and repaired the assembly. Damper assembly seems to be operating fine now, but still having the freezing problems. Could next item to replace be the "Temp Control board"? And if so, replace the "Temp sensors" also? I am not sure. Operating the Temp settings on the touch pad seems to have no effect on temp raising/lowering, but does show the value readout working properly. Also, I have a problem with the Ice Maker leaking water onto the "Ice full" lever and making a blob of ice inside the conveyor assembly and jamming it. And last, the water to the ice chamber fill and door water dispenser decides to work when it wants to, as if the supply line is frozen sometimes. Please help!

Check to see if the damper is now closing some to restrict the flow of cold air into the fridge. The only control for the fridge is the damper adjustment.

The water inlet valve may be leaking, allowing it to continuously drip and freeze on ice maker.Disconnect the line at the valve and see if its leaking. Refrigerator Repair Guide: How to Check the Water Inlet Valve - ACME HOW TO.com


To see if the line is frozen, disconnect the line where it goes into the freezer door at the bottom and see if water flows when you push the dispenser. If it does and not at the dispenser then it probably is frozen. Slightly raising the temp of freezer may help the fridge and dispenser problem.
