Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Refrigerator section too warm
• Refrigerator section too cold
• Freezer section too warm
• Freezer section too cold
• Freezer not defrosting
• Frost buildup associated with incorrect temperature sensing

Check Before Replacing

• Verify the refrigerator model number against the part cross-reference before ordering.
• Inspect the thermistor wiring and splice area for damaged, loose, or disconnected wires.
• Use the appliance's manufacturer-provided diagnostic procedure to check for a temperature-sensor fault code, if available.
• Because other components can cause the same symptoms, do not treat a symptom alone as confirmation that the thermistor has failed.
