Resetting Or Replacing The Circuit Board

I bought this MBF2256KEW model in 2007 - although I love the unit i have had the fridge portion cease to cool twice now and replaced the circuit board twice.  In reading the owner's manual troubleshooting section it recommends "resetting" the circuit board but it fails to tell you how to do that? I'm wondering if I have paid lots to replace two circuit boards when i could have simply reset them?
