Frigidaire 241537103 Refrigerator Temperature Control Thermostat OEM Part

This was a 2000 model so rather than just replace the defrost timer which was visibly burnt on the terminals, we just did everything. The cold control, defrost timer, thermostat, defrost heater and the compressor capacitor were all replaced. I had the same issue on my older unit and tore it apart replacing one item at a time over a three month period so on an older one i suggest do it all while it is apart.

I removed to the cover to the coil, defrosted coil with a heat gun and checked the heater strip resistance. I set timer to defrost by hand to make sure everything was working. There was damage to the temp control sensor. Both parts were on your web site at a good price, ordering was easy. The parts were in the mail two days later. A screwdriver and nut driver were the only other tools other than a multi meter. Parts installed in five min. I had the option of talking with a pro !!!

Replaced Controller thermostat.

Replaced it with new switch your service was unbelievable thanks so much,

I replaced cold control thermostat which did not resolve the issue. Then I noticed condenser fan was not turning. I replaced this fan motor and cleaned condensor coils underneath fridge. Got somewhat colder but not 0-10 degrees fahrenheit. in freezer or 34 to 40 degrees in bottom. So I had to tap suction line (larger line) at compressor and add small amount of R 134a refrigerant . Tap was made with piercing or sometimes called a bullet valve. About 3 to 5 psi gauge pressure. That did the trick. Now 0 degrees in freezer section and about 34 degrees in bottom section of fridge. I have been A/C tech for 20 or so years. I recommend getting tech to perform adding refrigerant to unit since it comes sealed from factory. I really don't think I needed to cold control but since it was new I left in on for good measure....Happy campers now in Texas and a wife thats stop nagging for now at least.
