Frigidaire Dishwasher Fuse Or Sensor

The Thermostat is an OEM part for Frigidaire dishwashers. It plays a critical role in regulating the temperature of the dishwasher during the wash and rinse cycles, ensuring optimal cleaning and drying performance.

Causes of a bad thermostat can include electrical malfunctions, wear and tear over time, or damage due to power surges or water exposure. A faulty thermostat can disrupt the normal operation of the dishwasher, leading to inefficient washing and potential damage to dishes.

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• Dishes not drying properly
• Dishwasher not heating water correctly
• Error codes related to temperature issues
• Dishwasher stopping mid-cycle

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The High Limit Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire dishwashers. It is a temperature control device located in the dishwasher's heating assembly that monitors water temperature levels during cycles. 

The high-limit thermostat plays a crucial safety role by automatically shutting off the dishwasher's heating element if water temperatures get too hot, preventing potential burns or damage. It ensures the dishwasher maintains the proper temperatures required for effective cleaning.

Symptoms of a bad high-limit thermostat include: 

• Incomplete or ineffective cleaning even on short cycles  
• Lack of hot water or intermittent hot water during cycles
• Strange smells or visible steam emitting from the dishwasher
• The heating element fails to activate when needed

This OEM Frigidaire replacement part is also compatible with some Electrolux, Westinghouse, and Kenmore dishwasher models. 

This dishwasher turbidity sensor measures how dirty the wash water is and reports to the control. Replacing a faulty sensor can restore proper cycle times and cleaning performance for consistent results.

• Monitors water clarity/soil level during the wash
• Sends feedback to the control to adjust cycle length, rinses, and heating
• Failure can cause very long or very short cycles
• Can trigger sensor-related fault indications

• Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off water before servicing
• Access the sensor from the bottom near the sump; remove the toe panel if needed
• Unplug the wire harness; release the locking tabs or twist-lock to remove; avoid touching the optical window
• Inspect and reuse the existing seal/retainer if in good condition; seat fully and check for leaks after reassembly

This thermistor is the dishwasher's temperature sensor. It reports water temperature to the control so the heater and cycle timing are managed correctly, helping restore reliable wash performance and more consistent drying.

• Monitors water temperature in the tub/sump and sends readings to the control board
• Helps the control regulate heater operation and determine cycle progress/timing
• Failure can result in no heat or poor drying
• May cause unusually long/short cycles or temperature-related fault codes

• Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Access is typically from the toe-kick/base area or sump; remove the lower access panel as needed
• Release the locking tab/clip, remove the sensor, and ensure the existing seal/O-ring is properly seated; install the new sensor fully to prevent leaks
• Reconnect the wire harness, restore power, and run a test cycle to check for leaks and proper heating

This thermistor is a temperature-sensing probe used by the refrigerator control board to monitor compartment temperature and help maintain proper cooling. Installing a correct thermistor restores accurate temperature feedback for efficient operation. What it does:

• Reads air temperature at its mounting location and sends that signal to the control board
• Helps control compressor, evaporator fan, and defrost cycles by providing accurate temperature feedback
• Common symptoms of a failing thermistor: improper or fluctuating temperatures, compressor cycling on/off, or temperature-related error codes
• Works as a direct replacement when the original thermistor fails or the wiring/connector is damaged

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Replace with the same type and mount in the original location to ensure correct temperature sensing
• Handle the sensor and wiring gently; avoid bending or stressing the probe or leads

This thermostat assembly regulates refrigerator temperature, helping maintain set cooling levels for fresh food or freezer sections. It replaces a faulty control that can cause inconsistent temperatures or erratic compressor cycling. What it does:

• Senses internal temperature and signals the compressor to run or stop to maintain setpoint
• Restores stable cooling when a failed thermostat causes warm spots or fluctuating temps
• Stops excessive compressor cycling caused by a defective control
• Works with the fridge's temperature knob/sensor system to provide user temperature adjustments

• Disconnect power before starting; shut off water/ice features if applicable
• Handle the capillary tube and sensor gently—do not kink or bend sharply
• Match mounting orientation and electrical connector locations to the original part
• After installation, restore power and verify proper temperature control and normal compressor cycling
