Description
This thermistor is a temperature sensor that mounts on or near the evaporator coils and monitors the evaporator temperature. It sends readings to the control board so the defrost cycle and compressor operation are properly regulated. Replace this part if your refrigerator is running too warm, too cold, experiencing excessive frost buildup on the evaporator, or cycling irregularly.
