The Thermistor Assembly is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It serves a crucial function in monitoring and regulating the temperature within the appliance. By sensing temperature changes, the thermistor sends information to the refrigerator’s control board, ensuring the system adjusts cooling to maintain the desired temperature settings.
Symptoms of a failing thermistor assembly include:
- Inconsistent temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer
- Refrigerator running longer than usual or not cooling efficiently
- Frequent fluctuations in temperature readings
Causes of thermistor assembly failure typically involve electrical faults, damage from moisture or frost, or simple wear over time, which can impact its ability to accurately measure and report temperatures.
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.
