Description

Probe thermistor (temperature sensor) gives the refrigerator control board accurate internal temperature readings so it can regulate compressor and defrost cycles. Replacing a bad thermistor helps restore steady cooling and correct temperatures. What it does:

• Senses interior temperature and sends the signal to the control board so cooling and defrost cycles operate correctly.
• Fails can cause uneven temperatures, items being too warm or too cold, or intermittent cooling.
• Often used in fresh food and freezer compartments as part of temperature control and defrost systems.
• Electrical symptoms may include inconsistent cycling or the fridge running more than expected.

What's included: One probe thermistor. Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
• Handle the sensor tip and wiring gently; avoid kinking or crushing the probe or leads.
• Basic hand tools are usually required; check the appliance service manual for access and routing.
• After installation, restore power and confirm correct operation.
