Description

Keep your appliance at the right temperature. This thermistor is the control's temperature sensor, sending accurate readings so the unit can heat or cool as needed and maintain consistent, reliable performance.

• Monitors temperature changes and reports them to the control board
• Helps regulate compressor/heater, fans, and cycle timing to hold the set point
• A failing sensor may cause temperature swings, over/under-cooling or heating, extended or short cycles, or error codes/alerts
• Common check when diagnosing erratic temperatures after basic airflow/vent/coil cleaning

What's included: 1 thermistor Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow hot/cold surfaces to normalize
• Note connector orientation and wire routing before removal
• Transfer any original clip/retainer if needed and seat the sensor in the factory location for correct airflow/surface contact
• Avoid pinching or stretching the harness; restore power and run diagnostics to verify operation
