FREEZER COMPARTMENT AND ICE MAKER
Freezer Thermistor
The freezer Thermistor is a variable resistance device connected to the control board. The
temperature of the freezer compartment causes the resistance of the Thermistor to change.
The resistance is monitored by a circuit on the control board which controls the operation of
the cooling system. The Thermistor is located on the left side of the freezer cabinet attached to
the back of the cover labeled 6
th
sense.
Checking the freezer Thermistor
1. Disconnect power to the refrigerator
2. Disconnect the wiring harness from
connector P6 on the control board.
3. Connect an Ohmmeter across the
2 Black wires in the disconnected
wiring harness and measure the
resistance.
4. Compare the resistance measured to the
value listed on the tech sheet shipped
with the refrigerator. Replace Thermistor
if needed.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before
operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or
electrical shock.
