The Thermistor Assembly is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. As a key component, it plays an integral role in monitoring and regulating interior temperatures. Consisting of a thermistor sensor and connection wire harness, it communicates real-time temperature readings to the control board. 

Symptoms of a bad thermistor assembly can include failure to properly detect temperature changes, causing inaccurate interior conditions, or affecting automatic defrost cycles. Breaks or shorts in the wiring can interrupt readings.

Causes of failure include general wear over time, damage from moisture exposure, or loose connections inhibiting communication. Thermistors may also fail prematurely in high-humidity environments.

Symptoms of a bad thermistor assembly include: 

• Inability to maintain set interior temperatures
• Frost or ice buildup inside with poor defrosting  
• Refrigerator failing to cool or cooling excessively
• Control panels displaying error codes relating to sensors

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

Replace this capacitor if the compressor struggles to start, hums without running, shuts off intermittently, or if the refrigerator stops cooling altogether.

Refrigerator won't start or compressor struggles to run? The run capacitor provides the power boost needed to start and maintain compressor operation.

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. Also known as a thermistor, is responsible for sensing the temperature changes and providing the necessary feedback to the refrigerator's control board. It helps maintain accurate and consistent temperature levels, ensuring optimal food preservation and efficient cooling.

Causes of a faulty temperature sensor can include wear and tear over time, damage due to electrical issues or exposure to extreme temperatures, or sensor calibration issues. These factors can result in temperature inconsistencies, inaccurate readings, or improper cooling performance of the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad temperature sensor may include:

• Incorrect temperature readings on the control panel
• Temperature fluctuations inside the refrigerator
• Overcooling or inadequate cooling of food items

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

This DC motor drives the evaporator fan that circulates cold air from the evaporator coils throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments. It is essential for maintaining even, consistent temperatures inside the unit. Replace this motor if the refrigerator is not cooling properly, the freezer is cold but the fresh food section is warm, or you hear unusual buzzing or grinding noises coming from behind the interior back panel.
