General Electric Refrigerator PSC23MSWCSS 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.
