Admiral Refrigerator Temperature Control, Cold Control

This is the mechanical cold-control thermostat for the freezer. It senses temperature and switches the cooling system on and off to maintain your selected setting, restoring steady freezer temps and normal compressor cycling.

• Regulates freezer temperature by opening/closing electrical contacts to control cooling
• Symptoms of a failing control include freezer too warm or too cold
• Unit runs constantly, won't start, or won't shut off at set point
• Temperature knob feels unresponsive or no distinct "click" when turned

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the control housing; note wiring and transfer leads one at a time
• Route the sensing tube exactly as original; do not kink, pinch, or cut it
• Set to a mid setting after install and allow up to 24 hours for temps to stabilize

This freezer temperature control lets you set and regulate the freezer's temperature, signaling the appliance to maintain consistent freezing conditions. Replacing a worn control restores accurate adjustment and helps protect your frozen foods. What it does:

• Sets the desired freezer temperature based on your dial/setting
• Regulates cooling or airflow to reach and maintain the selected temperature
• Helps keep freezer temperatures stable for reliable food storage and ice quality
• Common symptoms: freezer too warm or too cold, temperature swings, or a control that's stuck, erratic, or unresponsive

• 1 freezer temperature control

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the control housing; note wire connections and component orientation for reassembly
• Handle any sensing element or linkage carefully; avoid sharp bends or damage
• Reassemble, restore power, and verify temperature operation with an appliance thermometer

This mechanical thermostat is the appliance's temperature control. It senses internal temperature and opens or closes its electrical contacts to cycle the system, helping the unit reach and maintain the setting you select for consistent performance.

• Regulates temperature by switching power to the cooling or heating circuit as needed
• Helps prevent overcooling/overheating and unstable temperatures
• Common symptoms: runs constantly or won't start, temperature too warm or too cold, short-cycling, no response to knob/setting changes
• Visual damage, burnt terminals, or a thermostat that fails continuity tests indicate replacement

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Document wire locations; transfer wires one at a time and secure all connections
• If your unit uses a sensing bulb/capillary, route and secure it exactly as original; do not kink or sharply bend it
• Verify correct mounting and smooth knob/shaft movement, then restore power and test

A direct-replacement temperature control that restores user control over oven/refrigerator temperature settings for reliable cooking and storage. Replaces a worn or failed control to help stabilize temperature cycles and improve performance. What it does:

• Regulates appliance temperature by opening and closing the control circuit as needed
• Helps correct symptoms like inconsistent temperatures, unit running too long, or failure to reach set temperature
• Works as the control interface between user settings and the heating/cooling system
• Designed to match OEM function and mounting for straightforward replacement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Use basic hand tools; mounting screws and wiring retainers are typically reused unless new hardware is supplied
• Note wiring locations and take a photo before disconnecting connectors to ensure correct reassembly

Replacement cold control that restores temperature regulation in compatible refrigerators. Installs behind the temperature knob to control compressor cycling, helping stabilize interior temperature and stop constant running or temperature swings. What it does:

• Regulates refrigerator temperature by switching compressor/fan operation on and off.
• Replaces a failed temperature control that causes inconsistent cooling or interior temps that are too warm or too cold.
• Can stop issues like the compressor running continuously or frequent temperature fluctuations.
• Works with compatible refrigerator control housings and knobs.

• Disconnect power before replacing the control to avoid shock or injury.
• Note wire locations and knob orientation before removing; reconnect wires to the same terminals.
• Handle the control carefully and avoid bending or stressing mounting tabs and contacts.
• After installation, restore power and verify proper cycling and temperature stabilization.

This temperature control thermostat regulates the refrigerator compartment temperature by cycling the cooling system on and off. Replacing a faulty control restores consistent cooling and normal on/off operation so food stays at the right temperature.

• Senses compartment temperature and opens/closes electrical contacts to start or stop cooling
• Useful when the fridge is too warm or too cold despite adjustments
• Common symptoms: runs constantly or won't run, temperatures don't respond to the dial, no click or change when turning the control
• Also called a "cold control"; restores functional temperature adjustment

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Note wire locations and transfer them to the new control
• Carefully route the sensing capillary in the original path; avoid kinking or sharp bends
• Set to a mid-range setting and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize
