Working Principle & Condition:
W10225581 Refrigerator defrost thermosat clips onto the evaporator and protects your evaporator from overheating during the defrost cycle.
If the temperature of the evaporator exceeds the defrost thermostat setting the defrost heaters are turned off.
If you have ice building up in your freezer, or if your freezer is getting too warm during the defrost cycle you may need to replace the bi-metal defrost thermostat.
If your refrigerator does not defrost properly, you can test both the thermostat and the heater to figure out which part is at fault.
For this repair, you will need a Phillips screwdriver, a 1/4 inch nut driver, a flat blade screwdriver, a pair of wire strippers, a roll of electrical tape and a few butt splice connectors.
Install & Use:
Unplug the refrigerator before installing this part. Wear work gloves to protect your hands.
Defrost thermostat is located inside the freezer compartment either directly mounted to the evaporator or indirectly mounted to the evaporator.
