The Thermistor is an OEM part for GE washers. This thermistor monitors and regulates the temperature inside your GE washer during the different cycles.
The thermistor ensures accurate temperature sensing by measuring the temperature of the water or air inside the washer and sends this information to the control board, allowing it to adjust the heating elements or cooling mechanisms accordingly.
A bad thermistor can occur due to wear and tear, exposure to extreme temperatures, or electrical malfunctions. If you notice symptoms such as the washer not heating or cooling properly, error codes indicating a faulty thermistor, or inconsistent temperature readings, it may be time to replace the component.
Symptoms of a bad thermistor include:
- Washer not heating or cooling properly
- Error codes indicating a faulty thermistor
- Inconsistent temperature readings
Restore accurate temperature control by replacing the faulty thermistor with this genuine OEM part.
This GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
