Assy-Case Sensor Parts

Refrigerator not cooling properly or showing temperature errors? This temperature sensor monitors compartment temps and sends readings to the control board.

This sensor assembly detects moisture levels inside the oven cavity, typically used to support auto-cook or convection functions that rely on humidity readings. It mounts inside the oven and connects to the control board via a wire harness. Replace this sensor if the oven is overcooking or undercooking food during auto-cook cycles, or if you receive an error code related to the humidity sensor.

This dryer inlet thermostat monitors the temperature of incoming air and cycles the heater to maintain proper drying temperatures. Replacing a failed thermostat can restore consistent heat, help prevent overheating, and improve overall drying performance.

• Senses inlet air temperature and opens/closes electrical contacts to control the heat source
• Helps regulate drying temperature and protect against overheating
• Failure may present as long dry times, no or intermittent heat, overheating/shutting off, or erratic temperature swings
• Typically mounted on the air intake/duct or blower housing, depending on model

• Disconnect power before service; if gas, also shut off the gas supply
• Access the thermostat at the front duct or blower housing; note wire positions and transfer one at a time
• Mount flush against the metal surface with existing hardware to ensure proper sensing
• After installation, clear lint from ducting and vents to ensure proper airflow

Fix a warm fridge or melting freezer ice cream. This defrost thermostat monitors evaporator temperature to prevent frost buildup and restore proper cooling.

Fix frost buildup and warm temperatures caused by a faulty defrost thermostat. This sensor controls the defrost cycle. Simple 20-minute repair.

Oven won't heat after self-clean cycle? A faulty limit switch prevents operation when stuck open. Tests quickly with a multimeter for continuity.

Fixes F1 or F2 error codes and prevents overheating in ovens. This safety switch monitors temperature limits to protect components. Direct fit part.

This high limit thermostat is a safety device that monitors the heating element temperature in a room air conditioner with a built-in heater. It shuts off the heater if the temperature exceeds a safe threshold, preventing overheating and potential fire hazards. Replace this thermostat if the heater stops working, cycles erratically, or if the unit shuts off unexpectedly during heating mode.

Freezer won't maintain temperature or cycles incorrectly? This thermistor sensor monitors temperature and signals the control board. DIY-friendly repair.

A thin pad-style moisture sensor that detects wetness levels during the dry cycle and sends signals to the dryer control so the machine can adjust drying time. Replaces a worn or damaged sensor to restore reliable moisture-sensing performance. What it does:

• Detects residual moisture in the drum or on clothing and communicates readings to the control board
• Helps the dryer end cycles when items reach the set dryness level to prevent over-drying
• Common symptoms of a failing pad: long or incomplete drying cycles, clothes still damp at cycle end, or inconsistent auto-dry behavior
• Works as the sensing surface that partners with the dryer's sensing system to measure conductivity/moisture

• One sensor pad

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Handle the sensor surface carefully; avoid touching conductive areas with bare hands or tools
• Install in the original mounting location and secure wiring connectors firmly; verify routing to avoid pinching

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool ovens. As an important safety device, it is located near heat-producing elements inside the oven cavity. 

Causes of a bad thermal fuse include overheating of elements or surrounding components over time, which can eventually blow the fuse. 

Symptoms of a faulty thermal fuse include:

• The oven failing to heat or operate heating cycles fully
• Heating elements abruptly shutting off during baking  
• An unusual burning smell emanating from the oven

This genuine OEM Whirlpool part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore oven models as well.

The NTC thermistor is a temperature sensor located near the microwave's magnetron that monitors internal temperature for proper cooking control. Replace when food cooks unevenly, the microwave overheats, shuts off unexpectedly, or displays temperature-related error codes.

This is a high-limit thermostat that monitors the temperature of the heater element in a window or room air conditioner equipped with supplemental heat. It acts as a safety device by cutting power to the heater if temperatures exceed safe levels, preventing overheating and potential fire hazards. Replace this thermostat if the heater shuts off prematurely, fails to turn on, or if the unit is tripping due to overheating.

Freezer not cooling or frosting over? This defrost thermostat monitors temperature and controls the defrost cycle to prevent ice buildup and restore airflow.

Frost buildup in your freezer? This defrost thermostat monitors evaporator temperature and controls the defrost heater to prevent ice accumulation.

Fix an oven that overheats or shuts off unexpectedly with this high limit thermostat. Safety cutoff prevents damage. DIY-friendly replacement part.
