1 Answer Harold, At the bottom of the thermostat, opposite the dial and opposite side of where the terminals are located there is a tab off the thermostat which will hold the ground wire. Read More...
Bob J. December 28, 2015 for Model Number RTT1700DAE The freezer isn't keeping thing frozen, and has built up ice on the floor of the freezer, and the cold compartment isn't as cold as it should be. The thermostats don't seem to be working
1 Answer Bob, You have a defrost problem, not a cold control problem. This older refrigerator has the evaporator in the freezer floor, the defrost heater WP60106-34 and thermostat WP52085-28 are located under the freezer compartment floor, and the defrost timer WP68233-1 is located on the back of the refrigerator inside the compressor compartment. You will need to remove the doors, remove the mullion strip between the two compartments and slide the freezer floor out through the front. Remove the styrofoam cover and check for an open heater element or open thermostat, or broken wire. If the heater and thermostat check OK, then replace the defrost timer. Read More...
Bob F December 16, 2015 for Model Number GT19Y8FV I recently purchased and installed a cold control (AP4084658). My fridge now runs continually until the heater timer comes on every 6 hours and goes off after each 20 minute cycle. The terminals were at a different location on the new timer, could I have reversed the wiring? Thanks : Bob
1 Answer Hello Bob. There is no way of reversing the wiring on the cold control. You need to make sure the cap tube is in the correct location. If the temp is correct in the unit, then the cold control is working properly. Read More...
Lawrence January 30, 2015 for Model Number rtd1900cae Freezes water and such but wont keep ice cream cold.
1 Answer Lawrence, You will want to check the frost pattern of the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment. Check for impacted coils having them completely full of frost as being the issue. If the coils are like this then it is a defrost issue. If the unit does not have impacted coils or have a full frost pattern then the issue will be with the sealed system. The way that the coils should look is a full even frost pattern from top to bottom. Read More...
John B. August 08, 2014 Can I use thermostat 52881-33 in place of 52881-25 which is no longer available? Is it a question of mounting it? Can you tell me the difference between the two?
1 Answer Hello John, Part of the problem may be mounting but the main issue will be the thermal value of the control. If the control is not for the model listed, there may be an issue with the temperature not being calibrated correctly for the unit it is being installed into. Basically this means that the control will not match the set value. In this case, the unit may run too long and freeze items in the fresh food compartment or it may not run long enough and items will be kept a too warm a temperature and items are in danger of spoilage. Since appliance parts are listed by model number and temperature ranges for them are not provided by the manufacturer, we cannot say that this will be a good substitute unless the manufacturer lists them as a good cross.

1 Answer Hello Dave! The cold control is the refrigerator temp controller- thermostat. Part number 68119-2 has been discontinued and has been replaced with part number WP68601-6. Thanks! Read More...
Chris March 23, 2014 for Model Number RTT1700DAE My refrigerator just keeps running and does not shut off. Can it be the thermostat?
1 Answer Hello Chris. If the unit is reaching the correct temp, and does not shut off, you will need to order and replace the cold control WP68601-6 on the unit. Make sure the condenser coils are clean and the fan motor is working good. Read More...
Jeff October 25, 2012 for Model Number 1950 crosley shelvador I need to know if this part, Crosley control Old, number 68119-2, will work in my 1950 crosley shelvador. The original part number was 9525, or 9525n27, or c94824d. The fridge model is not available. The original part had 2 screw terminals, the red wire went into the relay, the black went thru the light socket and into the relay. Fit isnt important, it just has to function. Thanks!

Unfortunately, without an appliance model number or part number we are unable to make a guarantee that a part will fit your unit. If purchased and this item does not fit you have 365 days to return the part with our no hassle return policy. Thank you for your inquiry. Read More...
