Description
This replacement Screw-Stat secures the appliance thermostat or temperature sensor so it stays in the correct position for reliable temperature sensing and consistent control performance. Simple, direct replacement for a lost or damaged mounting screw. What it does:
- Secures the thermostat/temperature sensor to the cabinet or mounting bracket.
- Keeps the sensor in firm contact for accurate temperature readings and stable cycling.
- Replaces stripped, missing, or damaged screws that can cause a loose sensor, intermittent temperature control, or rattling.
- Small hardware piece that supports proper operation of the temperature control system.
What's included: One replacement mounting screw. Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal components.
- Use the proper screwdriver to avoid stripping the screw head; replace with like hardware.
- Do not overtighten—tighten just enough to secure the thermostat without distorting it.
