Steve R Neenah , WI January 03, 2015 Appliance: General Electric Refrigerator HTS15BBMBRWW Everything in the refrigerator was freezing I went on you tube to try and figure out what might be causing this problem. It seemed that the problem was either the temperature thermostat or the defrost timer. I figured that seeing as I had never ever seen any frost in the freezer that the problem probably wasn't the defrost timer. So I ordered the temperature control thermostat, received it the very next day and in ten minutes removed the old one and installed the new one and we were good to go. It's been working just fine for the last week. Read More... 36 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
Allen S Sebring , FL February 28, 2015 Refrigerator temperature control failed frig is 20 years old Purchased a replacement control that was an exact duplicate of the old control. The old frig temp control had a discontinued part number, however because applianceparts.com has such a good listing and pics of its replacement parts I was able to come up with the exact replacement.

Brian L North Las Vegas , NV July 22, 2019 Appliance: Hot Point Refrigerator HTS17CBTDRWW Frig and freezer not cold enough After removing the rear panel, I vacuumed the area. Then was easy to see condenser fan not spinning. I replaced the fan with a compression ring and a fan motor. First pulled the wiring harness connected to fan motor, then pulled off the fan with hands. Then used a wrench to remove 2 bolts for the motor. Next, pushed on new fan and screwed in the 2 bolts for the motor. Initially, I purchased a new temperature control to replace as well but after replacing fan and motor, I believe it was still functioning. The frig is 10 yrs old, so I replaced it anyway. All is working well. Read More... 4 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes Tools: Adjustable Wrench, Nut Drivers, Screwdrivers
