General Electric Refrigerator BSS25JSTCSS Too warm

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators, designed to accurately monitor and relay the temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments to the electronic control board. By detecting the slightest changes in internal temperature, the sensor allows the control board to make real-time adjustments to the cooling system, activating the compressor and fans as needed to maintain optimal conditions for food preservation.

Over time, the temperature sensor can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or general wear and tear. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to improper temperature regulation, affecting the efficiency of the refrigerator and the freshness of stored food.

Symptoms of a bad Temperature Sensor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperature 
• The appliance running continuously or more frequently than normal
• Inaccurate temperature readings displayed  

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Defrost Heater and Bracket Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It is responsible for facilitating the defrosting process, which is essential for maintaining proper cooling and preventing excessive ice buildup within the freezer compartment.

Symptoms of a faulty Defrost Heater and Bracket Assembly include:

• Excessive frost or ice buildup in the freezer compartment
• Inefficient cooling or temperature fluctuations
• Water leaks or puddles forming inside the freezer
• Unusual noises or burning smells during the defrost cycle

Causes of a bad defrost heater and bracket assembly can include normal wear and tear over time, electrical malfunctions, or physical damage to the heating element or bracket.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore refrigerator models.

NOTE: For a 9" double glass tube heater use WR51X10101

The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This motor is vital for the efficient operation of the refrigerator, as it powers the fan that cools the condenser coils and helps to circulate air. Without a properly functioning condenser fan motor, the refrigerator can overheat, leading to poor cooling performance and increased energy consumption.

Symptoms of a failing Condenser Fan Motor include:

• The refrigerator making unusual noises such as humming or buzzing
• The back of the refrigerator feeling hotter than usual
• The refrigerator cycling on and off more frequently
• Food not being kept at the proper temperature

Common causes for a bad condenser fan motor include dust and debris buildup obstructing the motor, age-related wear, and electrical failures such as short circuits or burnt-out capacitors. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help prolong the life of the motor, but if these symptoms occur, a replacement may be necessary.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Note: This is a 115-volt AC fan motor. For the 12-volt DC fan motor, order part number WR60X10209. Right-hand thread. The compatible fan blade is part number WR60X10207.

The Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It circulates air over the evaporator coils, ensuring consistent cooling throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments. The motor operates 9.75 volts DC. The motor has a 1/8" shaft and a 12" long, 4-wire harness.

You should replace the evaporator fan motor if it becomes faulty due to wear and tear, electrical issues, or physical damage. Over time, the motor bearings can wear out, or the motor itself can fail due to continuous operation.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan motor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not cooling properly
• Unusual noises coming from the freezer area
• Frost buildup in the freezer
• The refrigerator running continuously without reaching the set temperature

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
