Rudy for Model Number Whirlpool Upright Freezer Model EV161NZRQ05 I have to replace my thermostat with part no. 83053-002. I am ready to order the part, but I have not figures out how to deal will I assume with the sensor wire. I unscrewed the case located at the top of the right wall of the freezer and located the thermostat that has to be replaced. A wire which t I assume is the sensor goes into a white tube and goes somewhere behind the freezer wall. How do I remove and replace that part?
Answer Rudy, To replace the thermostat you may also need to take the lower cover of the freezer compartment off and then you would just pull the thermostat tube out of the white tube. Once you get the old one out you would push the new one in. It may be screwed down behind the lower wall. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, December 19, 2013
