Symptoms of a bad door switch include: 

• The refrigerator fails to resume cooling after closing the door
• The inside light fails to turn on when the door is opened
• Abnormal energy usage due to improper door monitoring

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This electronic freezer control module manages the freezer's temperature and defrost cycles so the compartment runs on schedule and helps protect stored food. It replaces a failed or intermittent control board to restore normal freezer operation. What it does:

• Regulates freezer temperature by running compressor and fans per thermostat/temperature sensor inputs
• Controls automatic defrost cycles and related timing functions
• Can correct intermittent cooling or defrost issues caused by a faulty control board
• Stop error codes or unresponsive control behavior when the original board is defective

• One freezer control module (single electronic control board)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting—risk of electric shock
• Handle the board by the edges and avoid static discharge; use an anti-static strap if available
• Verify connector orientation and secure all wiring harnesses before restoring power

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 replacement freezer control knob lets you easily set and adjust the freezer temperature. It restores a smooth, positive grip for changing settings and replaces a cracked, worn, or missing dial. What it does

• Provides a firm, easy-to-turn grip so settings stay where you set them
• Commonly replaced when the knob is cracked, stripped, loose, or missing
• Helps restore basic temperature control when the selector cannot be turned properly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Most installs are tool-free: pull the old knob straight off the control shaft and push the new knob on until it seats
• Align any indicator mark on the knob with the control pointer before use
• If the control shaft is damaged or the knob won't seat, do not force—inspect the underlying control and replace as needed
