Description

This freezer thermistor is the temperature sensor located in the freezer compartment. It sends temperature feedback to the control so the compressor, fan, and defrost cycle operate correctly, helping maintain consistent freezing performance and stable food storage.

• Monitors actual freezer temperature and changes resistance to signal the control board
• Helps regulate compressor and evaporator fan operation to achieve the set temperature
• Provides input for defrost timing to limit frost buildup and avoid warm swings
• Common failure symptoms: freezer too warm or too cold, temperature fluctuations, long run times, or excessive frost

What's included: 1 thermistor

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing; work with dry hands and proper lighting
• Access the freezer sensor location; note original orientation and wire routing
• Transfer any mounting clip/holder to the new sensor and seat the connector fully; route wires exactly as original to avoid damage
• Restore power and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize
