Description

This temperature sensor (thermistor) detects internal fridge/freezer temperatures and relays readings to the control board so the appliance can regulate cooling. It restores accurate temperature feedback for consistent cooling performance. What it does

• Measures cabinet/evaporator temperature and sends a resistance signal to the control board.
• Helps the control system maintain set temperatures by providing real-time readings.
• Common replacement when the appliance runs too cold/too warm, cycles frequently, or shows temperature-related error codes.
• Stops intermittent or incorrect temperature readings caused by a failing sensor.

What's included One temperature sensor (thermistor) as shown. Install notes

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the sensor to prevent shock or damage.
• Handle the sensor and wiring gently; avoid sharp bends or pinching the harness.
• Verify proper routing and secure mounting so the sensor contacts the intended location (evaporator or cabinet).
