Defrost Thermostat, Sensor

This flow meter measures the volume of water passing through the refrigerator's water dispensing system. It sends signals to the control board to accurately track water usage and control dispenser operation. Replace this part if your water dispenser delivers inconsistent amounts of water, fails to shut off properly, or if the dispenser display shows inaccurate readings.

This is a bimetal thermostat mounted on the ice maker mold that senses temperature to control the ice harvest cycle. It signals the ice maker to begin the harvest and eject ice once the mold reaches the proper temperature. Replace this thermostat if the ice maker stops producing ice, runs continuously without ejecting cubes, or if ice cubes are only partially frozen.

Frost buildup in freezer? The defrost thermostat monitors temperature to trigger defrost cycles. Test with multimeter when cold for continuity check.

Fixes frost buildup in freezer or refrigerator running too cold. This defrost thermostat regulates defrost cycles to prevent ice accumulation. Easy repair.

This bi-metal defrost thermostat monitors the evaporator temperature and signals the defrost heater to turn on or off during the defrost cycle. It acts as a safety device to prevent the evaporator from overheating. Replace this part if your refrigerator is building up excessive frost on the back wall, not cooling properly, or running constantly due to a failed defrost cycle.

Fridge not cooling but freezer works? This defrost thermostat monitors evaporator temperature to prevent frost buildup. Tests closed when cold with multimeter.

Fixes inconsistent cooling or frost buildup caused by faulty temperature sensing. This refrigerator defrost thermostat restores accurate readings.

This is an electrical connector strip used inside the refrigerator to join wiring harnesses or connect components on the control board. It ensures a secure electrical connection between circuits. Replace this connector if you notice intermittent power issues, error codes, or if the strip shows signs of burning, corrosion, or damaged pins.

Fixes refrigerator not cooling or freezer icing up issues. This defrost thermostat regulates defrost cycles to prevent frost buildup. Basic repair.

This thermistor is a temperature sensor that mounts on or near the evaporator coils and monitors the evaporator temperature. It sends readings to the control board so the defrost cycle and compressor operation are properly regulated. Replace this part if your refrigerator is running too warm, too cold, experiencing excessive frost buildup on the evaporator, or cycling irregularly.

Fix frost buildup in your freezer with this defrost thermostat. Controls defrost cycles to prevent ice accumulation. Moderate DIY repair in 30-45 minutes.
