The Bimetal Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This thermostat plays a key role in the defrost system, helping to regulate the temperature within the freezer to prevent frost buildup on the evaporator coils. By activating the defrost heater, it ensures the coils remain ice-free and the refrigerator operates efficiently. The thermostat operates within a range of 20F (closing temperature) to 50F (opening temperature).

Causes of a bad defrost thermostat can include electrical faults, exposure to constant temperature fluctuations, or wear and tear over time. When the thermostat fails, it can result in frost accumulation, impacting the cooling efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad bimetal defrost thermostat include:

• Frost buildup in the freezer
• The refrigerator running continuously or not cycling properly
• Inconsistent freezer temperatures
• Water leaks inside the refrigerator
