Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
The freezer or refrigerator is not cooling, though the compressor, fans, and other hardware appear to run normally. partselect.com+1
-
The appliance appears “dead” (no display, or display lights but no function) yet power supply is present—could point to the control board. partselect.com
-
Defrost cycle not functioning properly (ice build-up occurs) or the appliance runs continuously without shutting off—may indicate control logic failure.
-
Error codes related to system logic or communication, after verifying sensors and wiring are functional.
If any of these symptoms are present, consult your maintenance technician to test the board, wiring harness and sensors before ordering this part.

Compatibility Notes
-
Matching the full model number of your appliance (including suffixes) is essential. Even if an older board looks visually similar, mounting tabs, connector plug styles, or logic functions may differ. frigidaireapplianceparts.com
-
Replacing the control board will resolve control logic issues only if the fault derives from the board itself. If the cause is a failed sensor, wiring harness, compressor fault, or other hardware issue, replacing the board alone may not fix the symptom. Technician diagnosis is strongly recommended.
-
When installing: disconnect power first, remove back panel, note and label all wiring harness connectors, secure the new board firmly, and re-assemble. After installation, set the correct function settings and run diagnostics or verify normal operation.
-
After installation, monitor the appliance for a full cycle (cooling + defrost) to confirm correct operation and ensure no unexpected behavior.
