Description
The Thermostat Tube Shield is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It functions as a barrier that covers and insulates the temperature control thermostat capillary tube. This shield ensures accurate temperature sensing and regulation by protecting the capillary tube from physical damage and external temperature influences.
Over time, the thermostat tube shield can become worn out or damaged due to factors like regular wear and tear, accidental impact, or environmental conditions such as humidity and temperature fluctuations.
Symptoms of a bad thermostat tube shield include:
- Inconsistent or inaccurate refrigerator temperatures
- The refrigerator running continuously or cycling on and off frequently
- Visible damage or wear to the shield
- Difficulty in maintaining the desired temperature settings
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
