Control Display Problem.
A problem just surfaced with my cabrio, wed8500dc0. The display flickers on and off repeatedly extremely fast. It honestly acts like I have an intermittent leg of power. All of my molex connectors to the control board and display board are tight and my power cord legs are tight. I'm hoping the control of display boards aren't trash. Any other ideas?

1. In case of buttons malfunction, PCB panel might be rusty by moisture.
2. In case of no display after installation, possibly PBA panel is not well connected or damaged.
3. In case of wrong temperature display, possibly door opens so inside temperature goes up over setting temperature.
[Solution]1. Control Panel Is Not Illuminated.
If the control panel is not illuminated, unplug the refrigerator for 30 seconds to reset it.
If the control panel is still not lit up after you plug the refrigerator back in, it may has connection problem. ( In this case, you need to get a service.)
