Common Symptoms

  • Refrigerator freezing food
  • Refrigerator compartment too warm while the freezer remains cold
  • Refrigerator frost or ice buildup
  • Refrigerator running constantly
  • Refrigerator not cooling properly

Check Before Replacing

  • With power disconnected, inspect the thermistor and wiring for visible damage.
  • Test the thermistor with a multimeter; its resistance should change as its temperature changes.
  • If the resistance does not change or the thermistor has no continuity, further diagnosis or replacement may be required.

Pro Tip

Verify the refrigerator model number before ordering because refrigerators can contain multiple thermistors for different locations or functions.
