Samsung DA32-00027B Refrigerator Temperature Sensor OEM Part

After finding an excellent video on Youtube that addressed the exact problem I had, I ordered: a defrost heater and also replaced the Thermo Bimetal-Protec, and a sensor. The biggest problem was getting the ice that had formed on the back of my refrigerator to melt. I allowed this to happen on its own without applying heat as I feared heat may damage some of the plastic parts on the refrigerator. This took a couple of days but had completely melted by the time the parts arrived. Installation of the parts was simple and by the next morning the refrigerator was cooled to the appropriate temperature. All seems to be working just fine. The parts cost around $65. I would guess this would have been at least a $200 - $300 repair had it been done by a serviceman. Happy!!

I replaced the defrosting element, the temperature switch,the temperature sensor and the front panel.

Removed cover inside back of refrigerator and replaced the temp. sensor along with adding a small piece of copper wire to drain attached to the heater.

Fast and easy parts find and order though appliance parts pros. Ordered parts on Sunday had all parts by Thursday.. Refrigerator was back up and running Thursday afternoon.

Replaced heater, thermo switch bi - metal switch. The replacement parts didn’t have the correct connectors so I removed the old ones and soldered them on the new parts( I am an aircraft mechanic by trade). All went well , works great!
