How Do I Identify a Norcold 628661 Power Board?
One of the easiest ways to identify the Norcold 628661 is by its connector configuration. The 628661 uses two separate plug connectors: one row of 10 pins and one row of 6 pins.
Earlier-style Norcold power boards are generally more rectangular and commonly use a single 16-pin connector. If your existing board has the same appearance and 10-pin plus 6-pin connector arrangement as the 628661 shown in our product photos, you have the later-style board.
What Does the Norcold 628661 Power Board Do?
The 628661 is the refrigerator's main control board. It receives 12-volt DC power and manages or supplies power to several refrigerator systems, including the front control panel, AC heating circuit, and LP gas ignition system.
Symptoms of a Possible Bad Norcold Power Board
A failed 628661 power board may cause symptoms such as:
- Refrigerator will not power on
- Refrigerator does not detect AC power
- Refrigerator does not detect the AC heating element
- LP gas ignition failure
- Refrigerator does not sense a flame
- Intermittent or erratic operation
- Refrigerator will not reset
- Visible electrical burn marks or damaged components on the power board
Depending on the refrigerator model, a failed board may also be associated with an SR code, an S code, or a repeating control-panel light flash.
These symptoms do not automatically confirm a bad power board. Check incoming 12-volt power, fuses, wiring, ground connections, and related refrigerator components before replacing the board.
Is Norcold 50723 the Same as 628661?
Yes. Norcold 50723 is an alternate/current replacement number associated with the Norcold 628661 power board. Searches for Norcold 628661, Norcold 50723, 628661 control board, and 628661 circuit board generally refer to this same OEM replacement board.
Why Does the Norcold Serial Number Matter?
Norcold changed power-board designs during the production of several refrigerator families. Because of this, two refrigerators with the same model number can require different power boards.
For example, later N611 and N811 refrigerators use the 628661 beginning with serial number 9056492. Earlier units use an older-style board or replacement kit. Always verify the model and serial number before ordering.
Where Is My Norcold Model and Serial Number?
The refrigerator model and serial number are normally located on the Norcold data label inside the refrigerator compartment. Provide both numbers when requesting help with power-board fitment.
Norcold 628661 Installation
Typical installation time: 30 minutes or less
Common tools:

Good part but missing a wire jumper
Part came quickly and was packaged well. The only negative is that although all of the fuses were installed, it did not come with the jumper wire for the Limit In and Limit Out terminals installed. It took some time to figure out why the board was not working properly with all the cables from the fridge connected. Luckily I had saved the old board and was able to salvage the jumper cable from it.

excellent service
The board was an exact replacement and took all of ten minutes to replace the old board. I am especially appreciative of the fast service. I paid for three day ground service but had the board the next day. Excellent! Hint: any time you replace something with wires, make a quick sketch first.

very slow in shipping item
I paid $60.00 for over night shipping I ordered the item on a Saturday morning and it was not delivered until Tuesday late in the day. the charge stated $50.00 for overnight and additional $10.00 for priority overnight shipping. I do not feel that the item was shipped expediently -> After reviewing your order, it shipped out of our facility Priority Air on Monday (the first business day after your order) and was delivered at 8.55AM per FedEx tracking. We do not see any error on our part here, Mrs. Todd. -Norcold Parts Shipping Dept.
