Refrigerator freezer was working but was not getting cold on the refrigerator side Tim W. • Sanford , NC • September 13, 2015
Replaced the defrost heater, Temp sensor, and defrost thermostat. I'm pretty sure the defrost heater was the only faulty part, but I replaced the other parts to be safe. Took me about 20 minutes start to finish. I know the defrost heater was bad because it failed the continuity test.
Parts were delivered within 3 days! This is the second time using Appliancepartspros.com and I will not go anywhere else.
Thank you!

The freezer was working but the refrigerator wasn't cooling Steve H. • Hamilton , OH • October 10, 2016
The refrigerator is on top and freezer on the bottom. First I cleaned the access cover in the rear of the unit but this didn't fix the problem. I removed the ice maker and panel inside the freezer. The coil was frozen solid. I took off the defrost thermostat and check the continuity and it failed this test. After ordering the new part I installed it and put everything back together. It is now working perfectly.

Genuine Whirlpool part
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: 628532
This is a thermostat that monitors the temperature in the ice maker to signal when ice has fully frozen and is ready to be harvested. It acts as a thermal cutoff device to regulate the ice-making cycle. Replace this thermostat if the ice maker stops producing ice, runs continuously without cycling, or fails to eject ice at the proper time.
