Jason October 08, 2025 for Model Number FRFS282LAF3 I am unable to find where this part is located in my fridge. I have found videos for other models showing various locations. But not for my exact model. I have not gone as far as removing the tape and looking under the plastic in the air tower, could that possibly be where it is at?
1 Answer Hello Jason, thanks for contacting AppliancePartsPros.com That is correct, the thermistor in the refrigerator section will be behind the air tower. Read More...
Lynz August 24, 2025 for Model Number FRSS2623AS1 My freezer keeps getting iced over near the fan and also cools, then it will start to defrost . Would it be my freezer sensor
1 Answer Thanks for the question, Lynz. Place the unit into system diagnostic mode to check components and for error codes. Read More...
Eric August 04, 2025 for Model Number FGHN2844LF5 Fridge section is 10 - 15 degrees to warm. Freezer section is fine, below 0. I unplugged the refrigerator for a day and completely defrosted it to make sure there was no ice restricting air flow. The fan in freezer is working, and I replaced the temp sensor in the fridge section. But it's still too warm?
1 Answer Hello Eric, and thank you for your question. Since you’ve already replaced the fresh food thermistor and confirmed that the freezer is working properly with airflow present, the most likely cause at this point would be a failure in the main control board 5303918506. The board is responsible for managing cooling cycles and airflow between compartments, so if it’s not operating correctly, it can cause the fresh food section to stay too warm even when everything else seems functional.

Ric August 24, 2024 for Model Number FPSC2277RF2 Our ice maker quit, I replaced the water valve. That wasn't it. Then I removed the ice maker, completely. Have code OP, so replaced the Thermister on refrigerator side, there has been a lot of moisture and ice on bottom of freezer, water line is disconnected, completely. Still have Error code OP. I defrosted a lot of ice that was behind panel in back of freezer section. Have no idea how to proceed!
1 Answer Hello Ric, thank you for contacting APP, This sounds like either the freezer's SENSOR,TEMPERATURE,10K,NTC 240597220 / 240597220 or the defrost temp sensor on the Harness-Low Side 5304521285 / 5304521285 are reading out of range and causing defrost issues. Read More...
Mookie February 23, 2024 for Model Number FFHB2740PP5A I had a code OP come up saying it was the temperature sensor. (part number 240597203) I got a new one and replaced it but the code is still there. What is my next step?
1 Answer Mookie, the specific thermistor would be dependent on which display the error is showing in. If it is in the refrigerator temperature display, it is the refrigerator thermistor circuit that may have the failure. If it is showing in the freezer temperature display, the same would be occurring for the freezer thermistor circuit. The thermistors can be tested for resistance to identify if they are open or have resistance. If one is open, it has failed and would need to be replaced. If there is resistance, the main control 5304502780 would be the likely cause of failure. Read More...
Sheila October 15, 2023 for Model Number CFEB27S2FS1 How do you install temperature sensor. Do you have to pull oven out of wall to get at back.?
1 Answer Sheila, with the power supply turned off, the oven sensor should be able to be removed from inside of the oven without having to move the oven out. The wire can carefully be pulled through to get the connector out enough to disconnect the original sensor. However, if the connector will not feed into the oven, the appliance would need to be pulled out to access it from the back. Read More...
Les August 25, 2022 for Model Number FFHN2740PS1 My refrigerator is warm, but the freezer temp is fine. I believe the issue is with the damper system, as when I remove the damper entirely, the fridge becomes freezing cold. The resistance of the thermistor at room temperature is about 8400 ohms. I have power on the BRN/YEL & RED/YEL wires going to the damper, so I believe the main board is ok. When I plug in the fridge, the damper closes and opens 3x with the last time staying completely open, although the fridge has warmed from the doors being open. Is there anything else I should check? I read the thermistor should be 5k ohms @ room temp, so is the 8.4K too far out of range or could that be the issue?
1 Answer Les, Based on this information, the damper control will most certainly be the cause for this issue. Read More...
Mark August 22, 2022 for Model Number frss2623as where can i find the electromagnetic sensor for the freezer on my side by side fridge? (i found the fridges sensor in the middle of the door frame on the left side).
1 Answer Mark, the thermistor will be located next to the auger motor behind the ice bin. Read More...
Mike Nap May 30, 2022 for Model Number LGUS2642LF0 Where is the thermistor on the freezer side located? Freezer temp is sporadic...swinging back a forth between -3 to +19 Hoping its just the thermistor.
1 Answer Mike, If you look on the side wall of the freezer there will be a cover that will have the thermistor located under it. Read More...
Daniel April 12, 2022 for Model Number GHSC39ETES0 After replacing the main control board i got power back to the fridge side. the freezer side was ok before. but now i got a flashing 2 on the temp control on the freezer side but fridge side is ok. i replaced the freezer thermostor but still flashing 2 and the compressor is also not running. i tried a new temp control board but same issue.
1 Answer Hello Daniel, the control board does not see the freezer thermistor correctly and as such will not power the compressor. Since you have replaced the freezer temperature thermistor check the wiring connections on the main control board. Read More...
