Description

This temperature sensor mounts on the sealed-system gas inlet line in compatible refrigerators. It relays precise temperature feedback to the control so cooling and defrost cycles are managed correctly, helping maintain stable compartment temperatures. What it does:

• Senses temperature at the gas-inlet line; resistance changes are read by the control
• Helps regulate compressor, fan, and valve operation for proper cooling performance
• A failed sensor may cause erratic temperatures or extended run times
• Can correlate with control thermistor error codes or frost/ice patterns near the evaporator

What's included:

• 1 thermistor sensor

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Note original sensor placement and insulation; reinstall in the same location and orientation
• Attach the sensor firmly to the line and route the harness as originally, away from sharp, hot, or moving parts
• Do not open or puncture sealed-system tubing; if damage is suspected, stop.
