Customer Questions and Answers for Temperature Sensor by Ge

4.89 (64)
By: Ge
Part Number: OEM9556230
Manufacturer Part Number: WR55X10025

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators, designed to accurately monitor and relay the temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments to the electronic control board. By detecting the slightest changes in internal temperature, the sensor allows the control board to make real-time adjustments to the cooling system, activating the compressor and fans as needed to maintain optimal conditions for food preservation.

Over time, the temperature sensor can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or general wear and tear. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to improper temperature regulation, affecting the efficiency of the refrigerator and the freshness of stored food.

Symptoms of a bad Temperature Sensor include:

  • The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperature 
  • The appliance running continuously or more frequently than normal
  • Inaccurate temperature readings displayed  

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.

Rob for Model Number ZISS480DXASS

Updated with additional content providing a better understanding of the problem (bottom line, the answer provided does not match the problem as the temperature stays high for a number of days, I.e. it is not a defrosting cycle. Also, this did not use to happen). Any ideas are really welcomed as I’d like to fix this. Thanks again. Hello, I have a 15 year old GE ZISS480DXASS. The freezer ranges in temperature randomly from 3-17 degrees F on a regular basis. Once this high temperature is reached, the freezer stays at 14-18 degrees for days. Then can drop back down to around 5 degrees and stays there for another day or two, and then the same cycle occurs. Sometimes it happens on a cool day, sometimes on a hot day, sometimes it keeps at 3 degrees for days and sometimes in the same day it'll vary by 5-10 degrees. I have changed the temperature sensor in the freezer part but to no avail, the temperature still fluctuates. Any recommendations as to what I could try next? Thanks

Answer

Rob, with the additional information in mind, the inverter control WR49X10283 would need to be tested for voltage during the state of failure while the fans are operating. The two larger wires should have 120VAC while the smaller wires should have between 5-12VDC. If the voltage is present but the compressor does not operate, the inverter would be the cause of failure. If the DC voltage is not present, the main control WR55X11070 would be the cause of failure.
