Great, another one of GE electronically controlled fridge models. I'm not a fan.

There's a lot of wires, and a sensor or two back there, but as far as what voltages/ resistance, etc. things are supposed to have, ??? That's why I'm here.
There should be a wiring diagram with the fridge which might also have some diagnostic procedures in a small pocket, pouch or envelope either behind the kickplate, in or near the compressor compartment at the back or inside the control console.

You can get a general idea of how a refrigerator's defrost system works at the following link:

About the only thing on your model that can be easily tested is the defrost heater (see the following link) itself.
