This temperature sensor assembly reads internal refrigerator temperature and sends the signal to the control board so the appliance maintains proper cooling. Replacing a failed sensor restores accurate temperature monitoring and consistent operation. What it does:

• Monitors fresh food/freezer compartment temperature and reports readings to the control board.
• Helps the fridge cycle the compressor and fans correctly based on actual temperatures.
• Common symptoms of a failing sensor: inconsistent temperatures, food spoiling, compressor running more than normal, or erratic cooling.
• Works with the control system to support ice maker and defrost control when applicable.

• One temperature sensor assembly

• Always unplug the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
• Handle the sensor and wiring gently; avoid pulling on wires or bending the probe excessively.
• Verify connector orientation and secure routing to prevent pinching from the door or shelves.
• Test the sensor and control board connections with a multimeter per OEM instructions.
