Dave, I solved my issue. Not sure if you have the same problem or not but wanted to post back here in case it helps.
After replacing the Thermofuse, eyebrow board, main board and electrode/ignitor, the problem still wasn't fixed. My attention turned to the valve solenoid next. The service manual states "The proper reading would be 49 ohms with tolerance range of ten
percent. Failure of the solenoid is very unlikely." Mine measured 44.6 consistently but given there's really not much left to try to replace I went ahead and replaced the entire valve assembly, inclusive of a new valve solenoid. Good news, problem solved, fridge stays on all night and I can now move on with my life with a functioning fridge. And now I have a box full of replacement parts I can use in the event the fridge starts acting up. Good luck with your issue, maybe this will be helpful.
