Description

This temperature sensor monitors interior temperatures so the refrigerator can maintain proper cooling. It connects to the control board and provides the temperature readings the appliance needs to regulate compressor and fan operation. What it does:

• Detects air temperature in the refrigerator/freezer compartment for accurate control signals
• Helps the control board decide when to run cooling cycles
• Commonly replaced when interior temps are incorrect or fluctuate unexpectedly
• Can address symptoms like the fridge running constantly, not cooling properly, or erratic temperature behavior

What's included:

• One temperature sensor (thermistor) with connector

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before attempting any service to avoid electrical shock
• Handle the sensor and lead gently; avoid kinking or sharply bending the probe
• Mount and route the wiring per original placement so the sensor reads ambient compartment temperature
