General Electric Refrigerator ETS22SBSCRSS 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 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.
