Installation instructions are included Review: Replacing the “Muthaboard” - Finally we have our refrigerator back to normal! In fact, it's better than what "normal" was for several years. We have been trying to get our refrigerator running right for the past month basically - it’s a long story that I can tell you all about, but the bottom line is that this GE Main Control Board was the final solution! A few months ago we started noticing an odd noise coming from our stainless steel side-by-side GE model # GSH25JSTCSS off and on. It sounded like a haunted house and I just kept hoping it wouldn’t totally die on me. Thankfully it didn’t totally die, but after a few months it did freeze up and the refrigerator section warmed up to around 60 degrees F one day. My husband found the source of the haunted house noise which was an evaporator cooling fan and so we thought surely that will be the problem, and we ordered a new fan, he replaced it, and the ghostly noises were gone, but…. Nope, it still didn’t cool right. At that time my husband had to leave to go out of town for a couple days so he told me to call a repair guy. I found the best local repairman I could find using Angie’s list and he came out and did the diagnostic test. First of all he checked the fan that hubby had replaced and said it was fine. Then he tested the thermostat and the heating element that defrosts the coils, and they were both fine. So he said the only other thing it could be was the timer switch for the heating element, but it was in the main control panel and that was going to cost almost $200, $300 total with labor (plus I already had to pay close to $80 for the diagnostics). So we thanked him and said we would consider our options. We searched and found this part - the GE WR55X10942 Refrigerator Main Control Board - and it was about half the price of the part from the local guy. We ordered it and it didn’t take very long to come, and we also ordered a new water filter as well! Only a year or so after we bought the fridge we ran into trouble with the water dispenser, but we know now it started with our city water. They had a main water line to bust and dirt got in the line and they didn’t flush the lines enough so dirt clogged our filter in the fridge. We actually didn’t know that was the problem for sure at the time, and we didn’t want to buy a new filter if something else was the problem. I don’t remember all the details but for some reason the icemaker stopped working around the same time. We didn’t know if it was related to the filter issue or what. So we just started using a filter pitcher and buying ice because the warranty was expired. (In the process of repairing our real problems recently, my husband flushed out the water lines and there was all kinds of dirt and mud that came out, so we know now.) When the control panel came, hubby installed it and replaced the filter and we had great tasting water and ice and the refrigerator was cooling again shortly after! But our happiness was very short-lived. Three days later I was taking everything out of the refrigerator because it was warm AGAIN! We had started putting everything into coolers at first but when we realized things were taking so long we bought an old upright fridge since we wanted an extra to go in the utility room anyhow. So now I was transferring everything back over to that fridge and feeling very frustrated! We thought that maybe the local repair guy was mistaken somehow, and since the other two parts he said could possibly have something to do with the coils freezing up were not expensive, we ordered those and hubby replaced those also. Once again things seemed to be great for a day or two, and then back to the same frozen coils and warm fridge. So we called the repair guy back and told him everything and he said that honestly he couldn’t think of anything else and that he had replaced some main control panels in the past that were defective, so we must have gotten a defective one unfortunately. That’s when we requested a new one to replace it, explaining everything as to why we believed it must be defective, and in just a few days there was a new one in our mail! As you can imagine we were very unsure but very hopeful at this point because we definitely didn’t have money for a new refrigerator and had already spent quite a bit on 4 new parts! Well, it’s been a week since hubby replaced the “Muthaboard” again and I am thrilled to say it’s still running perfectly - defrosting itself and maintaining a temp between 32 and 40 in the fridge! So it’s been a very long process but now I can confidently put a brand new gallon of milk in the fridge or anything else I want to stay cold! I can say for sure I do not take my refrigerator for granted anymore! And even though it was somewhat of an ordeal, we still came out way ahead financially compared to having the repair guy to do the work for us. So it was worth it for us in the long run, and I’m so happy to have my fridge back, now with ICE and WATER too! :D Review: Less expensive than buying a new fridge, if you're not afraid of a little DIY - TLDR: This worked great and was easy to install. =========================== I figured out my previous circuit board was fried the moment I removed its protective panel a couple days after a power outage; the board was literally "fried" with a capacitor (I believe that's what it was, one the two-centimeter-tall cylindrical twins) blackened and the smell of "fried electronics" wafting out from that area. I wanted to buy a new refrigerator; my current Hotpoint side-by-side with a water/ice delivery system was a part of a foreclosed deal I obtained a year ago and it was scummy (I never really put forth the effort to deep-clean it). After putting a thousand dollars on a credit card for a new fridge, I decided to try out a new circuit board instead after learning a little bit about taking the fridge apart to clean out other components. The return of the credit to my card was a motivator and oddly emboldened me to deep clean the thing while waiting for the circuit board to arrive (very happily with desertcart's pretty reliable Prime Time, by the way!) This circuit board works amazingly. Removing the old one was not enjoyable, as it ended up snapping back upon my hand and probably gave me tetanus or something, but other than that predicted attack the modular connectors were easy to identify and plug into this replacement (I also made sure that the component arrangement matched well, alongside using desertcart's determination tool to verify that this component would work with my refrigerator). So far, everything is working well. The freezer and fridge work again (I no longer have to use the snow-covered North Country New York weather as a temporary cooler!); I haven't tested out the water line and the ice maker honestly, but I assume those would work (the indicator lights and the lights themselves also work as expected). ## Features - This is an O.E.M.

I would like to know if the one you're selling is similar to the mine. Thanks** A: I am not selling one.........not sure how this came up as for sale. I bought one several years go for my GE and it worked great. **Q: Would this control board work for a ge model #gsl25jfxnlb** A: Hi , once you type in the model number it should tell you if this will work on your refrigerator or not. Hope this helps . **Q: Good morning. I have a GE refrigerator and I need to change the main control board "EBX1005G01 REV M". Does "GE WR55X10942" works perfectly?** A: I have the same motherboard "Ebx1005G01 rev M" and I noticed there is no "green wire" spanning from one side to the other of the board. Did you order it? And was it a drop in replacement or did you have to modify some wiring? Thanks, I appreciate any feedback. **Q: Will this control board work on gsh25jsrfss??** A: I have received many requests asking whether this part will fit various model numbers. While I'd like to help and have tried to answer a few of them as best I can, I'm not an appliance repair wiz and am certainly not an expert. My best advice is to research your model by googling the model number to find parts lists and looking at what they give as the manufacturer's part number, then seeing if the manufacturer part cross references to the replacement. Many of these components will fit multiple models, and are sometimes made with extra plugs or sockets to further expand the range of applications they satisfy. The replacement part manufacturers also publish what their parts fit in terms of model numbers of the appliances and/or original part numbers they replace. If you spend a little time on this, you'll likely find what you're looking for and it'll make you more confident and the job easier to handle. Major household appliances commonly last a long time until something major wears out, if you are willing to try the smaller, less complex repairs that can be done safely, you can greatly extend the lifespan of these items and save hundreds or even thousands compared to replacement or professional repair costs. Youtube is invaluable, as are other sites that post how to videos. Try to look at a couple different ones and then decide if you think its something you can handle. Good luck. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Replacing the “Muthaboard” *by R***N on September 19, 2016* Finally we have our refrigerator back to normal!

Some times the refrigerator cooled but not the freezer part. Sometimes neither part cooled while the fridge started to click. (Clicking is from relay noise). I ordered this universal board for my fridge from Amazon.com. I took advantage of the FREE shipping. It arrived quickly in a timely fashion. It was a sealed GE factory board and not a brand X board. First class! The board came with clear instructions to be used for your particular refrigerator. In my case, I removed the small rear panel on the back side of the fridge to expose the board. You then unplug the fridge, pull out the connector plugs from the board, remove the ground wire under a screw, remove the board off of 4 plastic standoff spacers, install the new board onto the spacers and then plug in all the wire connectors onto the new board. My new board had many more parts on it then the old board. You cannot plug the wrong connector into a wrong socket. Each connector has a different number of pins on it so any one plug will fit into only one socket. In some cases a wire needs to be cut on one of the plugs per the instructions, but for my model this was not neccessary. Also, for BOTTOM FREEZER refridgerators, you need to take the lower panel off exposing the compressor and check if you have a start capacitor on your fridge. (The diagram shows you where the start capacitor would be located if you have one). If you have one, you need to cut a ground wire off a plug. In my case no wire needed to be cut as I had no start capacitor on my fridge. In short all I had to do was to swap out boards on the fridge and then put the panels back in place with screws. For tools I needed a Phillips screw driver, but to remove the old board a pair of needle nose plyers helped removing the old board off the stand off legs as they needed to be squeezed before the board could be lifted off the standoffs one at a time. There are 4 plastic standoff legs holding the board in place. I didn't need to cut any wires but if you did need to cut one or two a small wire cutter would be handy. Otherwise a pocket knife would do the job. If you follow the clear instructions you won't make a mistake. In my case I could replace the board again now that I did it once in less then 5 minutes. Doing it the first time, so you don't mistake, should take you no more the 15 to 20 minutes being very careful. One last thing, THE BOARD FIXED THE REFRIGERATOR! (Please understand after reoplacing the board and turning the fridge on again, once plugging it back into the wall, will require hours of operation before the fridge and freezer are cold enough to turn the compressor off. In my case, with an empty fridge, I got tired of waiting to see if it would turn off after three hours of operation watching it. When I checked the next day, it was cold and not running. Everything was working just fine. It took a long time before it shut off even when the fridge was empty. (So be patient). You can do the repair yourself and save a lot of money! The part from Amazon cost about half the list price of the board, no tax, and I also saved the cost of the repairman's labor. In my case I had actually called a repairman, two weeks later he had the board but never showed up on his appointment. I fired him and did the job myself quicker and for less money.
