This replacement temperature sensor measures the compartment temperature and reports it to the control board, helping your refrigerator maintain consistent cooling. Replace a failing sensor to restore accurate temperature readings and dependable performance.

• Monitors refrigerator/freezer temperature and relays data to the control
• Helps the system regulate compressor and fan operation for steady cooling
• A failing sensor can cause temperatures that are too warm or too cold
• May lead to extended run times, short cycling, or erratic cooling

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves.
• Location varies by model; commonly clipped to the evaporator or mounted in an air duct/liner.
• Match the connector, route wiring along the factory path, and secure the probe in its original position.
• Restore power and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize.

This ice gear transfers motor rotation to the refrigerator's ice mechanism so cubes can be dispensed or ejected. Replacing a worn or stripped gear restores smooth, reliable ice operation and helps eliminate grinding or clicking noises.

• Transfers drive from the motor to the ice mechanism (auger/ejector, depending on model)
• Helps move ice through the system for dispensing or harvest
• Common symptoms: no or slow ice dispensing, auger not turning, loud clicking/grinding from the ice bin
• Cracked or stripped teeth indicate the gear should be replaced

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the ice bin and access the ice assembly per your model; note gear orientation for reassembly
• Align teeth carefully; do not force the gear onto the shaft
• Inspect related parts (drive coupler, auger, motor shaft) and replace any worn components to prevent repeat failure
