5 years old GE side by side Refrigerator(Model#GSS25JFMCWW) recently not cold anymore. Checked the Freezer side, find heavy frost. Defrost it by hair dryer, back to work but only last 5 days. So it is the defrost system problem! My question is: How can I find which part problem?(Timer, Heater or thermostat) Does this model have a timer? if not should we change the main control board? Is it easy? Thanks!!

Yours does have the board. Here are your diagrams and parts list. http://www.partselect.com/AdvancedModelSearch.aspx?ModelNum=GSS25JFMCWW&mfgM odelNum=&fkMfgID=2

It is easy to install.>>>Partselect.com - GE Appliance Parts And All Brands of Appliance Parts

Your owners manual should tell how to force it into defrost mode to see if the heater works.
