Description

Temperature sensor that monitors internal appliance temperature and provides the control board with accurate readings. Replacing a faulty sensor helps restore correct temperature regulation and prevents food spoilage or freezer issues. What it does:

• Sends temperature readings to the appliance control so cooling and defrost cycles can run correctly.
• Common symptoms of a failing sensor: inconsistent temperatures, refrigerator or freezer running too warm or too cold, compressor or fans cycling abnormally, or ice maker not advancing.
• Can affect temperature-based functions on models that use this sensor for those controls.
• Replace if the sensor shows open/short behavior or gives inconsistent readings compared to expected operation.

What's included: One temperature sensor Install notes:

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electric shock.
• Handle the sensor and probe carefully; the tip and wire connections are fragile.
• Reconnect wiring and mounting securely; avoid pinching the sensor wire or contaminating the probe.
• After installation, restore power and verify the appliance reaches and maintains expected temperatures.
