Defrost Thermostat

EPart came as expected and installed easy.

Received this part because the freezer kept getting way to warm, took a long while to defrost and change out but ever since it has worked perfectly. Easy to follow the video instructions and get this done. Appreciate the website helping me find out what was wrong and solve it instead of paying someone to do it!

Fast delivery. Stock part in great condition.

The Defrost Thermostat is the third part I purchased from PartSelect to fix my refrigerator/Freezer. The error we were consistently getting was that the refrigerator was too warm (High Temp Error Code). We have a Frigidaire Professional French Door Style Fridge Model #(FGHF2369MF7).with automatic ice in the door. Based on the information on the website we were under the assumption that the evaporator fan needed to be replaced. Before you replace any parts when you have this error examine carefully your freezer door seal. After replacing the evaporator fan everything worked fine for a week or two. We then started to notice that the fridge temperature was rising again. We then examined the freezer door seal and we noticed that it was not making contact and it seem to have lost its magnetic properties. The freezer door seal was the second part that we replaced. Based on the amount for ice buildup in the back of the freezer the temperature was rising again. It would seem there was a lot of warm moist air getting in because there wasn't a proper seal between the freezer seal and the freezer compartment itself. Even tough we replaced the evaporator fan and the freezer door seal we noticed ice starting to build up again. I read on the part select website that the next thing that we were likely to replace would be the Derfost Thermostat. When I removed it from the freezer it was actually broken in half and was in two separate pieces. I would like to submit a photo but I'm not sure how. I conclude that when the freezer seal was no longer effective the defrost thermostat got damaged due to ice build up. I don't believe this was the original problem although didn't need to be replaced. . The first thing they tell you to do when you have any of these problems is to completely thaw the refrigerator and freezer old-school like the defrost in a very old fridge. Unplug the machine and completely allow it to thaw out. Take the time to inspect the various parts and I suggest starting with the freezer seal. If I replace this originally after defrosting them the refrigerator and freezer old-school like the defrost in a very old fridge. Unplug the machine and completely allow it to thaw out. Take the time to inspect the various parts and I suggest starting with the freezer seal. If I had replaced the seal originally after defrosting the entire fridge and freezer compartment I'm sure it would've solve the problem. I believe that the ice buildup is what ultimately caused the defrost thermostat to fail. I do not believe that I needed a new evaporator fan at all but that was the original part that we replaced. It's been about three weeks now since I replaced the defrost thermostat and the temperature is holding steady at -15°C for the freezer and +3°C for the refrigerator. It was certainly much cheaper to go this route even though it cost us about $400 Canadian all said and done it's much cheaper than paying another $3500 for a fridge that's only a few years old. They sure don't make them like they used to.freezer and +3°C for the refrigerator. We have a Maytag refrigerator and freezer downstairs in the basement that we got with our original house back in 1985. Hasn't given us a lick of problems. Works like a charm. If you have no experience, just order the parts, watch the videos, follow the video step by step.

Took 10 min. Solved the issue perfectly,

Excellent service and fast shipping. This was an easy part to replace thanks to the correct wiring connections. I couldn’t find a lot of detail regarding which line the defrost thermostat should be on and questioned if it was on the right line. After sharing photos with an experienced repair person, we determined it was previously installed on the wrong line. This should fix our issue with random high temperatures in the refrigerator and freezer. Thank you Part Select.

Swapped the part - works great

Very easy repair. Did not even have to rewire it was plug and play replacement.

Facile à trouver dans le catalogue virtuel, ce thermostat est facile à remplacer. Mon réfrigérateur ne fonctionnait plus, mais mon congélateur fonctionnait bien. Ce simple thermostat était la solution. Ce thermostat fait partie du système de dégivrage du radiateur du congélateur et permet de converser une bonne circulation d’air pour refroidir la partie réfrigérateur.

recieved in just a couple days- super easy install- snapped right in to factory connectors- very satisfied.
