Description

This indoor thermistor is the refrigerator air-temperature sensor that tells the control board the internal temperature so the appliance can cycle cooling correctly. It replaces a failed sensor to restore accurate temperature sensing and more consistent cooling. What it does

• Senses refrigerator air/evaporator temperature and sends the signal to the control board
• Helps the control system maintain set temperatures and proper defrost timing
• Common symptoms of a bad thermistor: incorrect or fluctuating refrigerator/freezer temperatures, frequent compressor cycling, or temperature-related error codes
• Works with the original wiring harness and mounts in the air path or evaporator area depending on model

What's included

• One indoor thermistor sensor

Install notes
