GE Fridge Fixed
The GE repairman came out today - replaced the board twice, but that did not fix the problem. Turns out the ice dispenser control board connector at the bottom of the freezer door was corroded. After he cleaned that up the icemaker worked. Resetting the control board by removing power from the refrigerator solved the display problem. Total cost - $85 - pretty good deal for a housecall. This is a pretty easy repair to do yourself, and apparently it's quite common for corrosion at this connector. Before he found out that was the problem, he was musing that if there was a bad wire inside the refrigerator I would have to replace the unit with a prorated refund from GE. Obviously, I would not have been happy with that outcome!
