Manufacturer Part Number: 6615JB2005H

The Defrost Sensor Assembly is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This integral component plays a key role in monitoring the temperature within the refrigerator's freezer section, particularly during the defrost cycle. It ensures that the defrost system activates and deactivates at appropriate temperatures to maintain efficient operation and prevent frost buildup. 

Symptoms of a faulty defrost sensor assembly include:

  • Excessive frost or ice accumulation in the freezer
  • Refrigerator or freezer section experiencing temperature fluctuations
  • Defrost cycle not running or running too frequently

Causes of defrost sensor failure often involve damage from moisture or ice, electrical faults, or degradation over time, which can lead to inaccurate temperature readings and improper defrost cycle regulation.

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

Answer

Ian, it is possible that the sensor has failed. The sensor 6615JB2005C can be tested for resistance and should measure 77KO at -4°F, 60KO at 5°F, and 47.3KO at 14°F. The fuse on the sensor assembly should measure as having continuity and if it does not, then the assembly would need to be replaced. However, the defrost heater 5300JB1100Q should be tested and it should have a resistance reading. If there is not a resistance reading, then the heater has failed and would need to be replaced.
