XPARTCO DA32-00024W Refrigerator Temperature Sensor The XPARTCO DA32-00024W is an aftermarket replacement temperature sensor for Samsung refrigerators. This sensor senses the temperature inside the refrigerator and sends that information to the electronic control board, which uses it to regulate cooling and, on many models, manage the defrost cycle. The manufacturer designation for this sensor is "SENSOR TEMP;NW2,5V,R-DEF," indicating its role in the defrost-related temperature monitoring circuit. Over time, the sensor's electronics can drift out of calibration or fail outright from age or moisture exposure. A failing sensor typically shows up as inconsistent cooling, temperatures that run warmer or colder than the set point, or increased energy consumption as the refrigerator's control struggles to compensate for inaccurate temperature readings. It directly replaces AP5579174, 3955001, and PS4138632. Quick Answer The XPARTCO DA32-00024W Refrigerator Temperature Sensor fixes Samsung refrigerators with inconsistent cooling, temperatures running warmer or colder than expected, or increased energy consumption. Replaces AP5579174, 3955001, PS4138632. This sensor is tied to defrost-related temperature monitoring on many models — if you're also seeing frost buildup or defrost cycle issues, this sensor is worth checking alongside the defrost thermostat or heater. Common Problems This Part Fixes Inconsistent cooling in the refrigerator or freezer compartment Temperature running warmer or colder than the set point Increased energy consumption from the refrigerator overcompensating Temperature fluctuations affecting food freshness Defrost cycle irregularities on models where this sensor is part of that circuit Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item. Replaces Part Numbers This refrigerator temperature sensor directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers: DA32-00024W, 3955001, AP5579174, ASM30135, EAP4138632, PD00030760, PS4138632.

Restore power and test that the knob turns the timer setting correctly through its full range, confirming the dryer starts and progresses through the cycle as expected. Tools needed: none typically required. Frequently Asked Questions My knob spins freely or feels loose. Is this the right part? Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms this knob resolves. If the knob's D-shaped socket has worn out or become stripped, it can no longer grip the timer's shaft properly, letting the knob spin, wobble, or feel loose without actually turning the internal timer mechanism. I was told my knob replacement threw off my drying time. Is WE01X20374 the fix? It can be, depending on your model. GE's own support has addressed a case where a similarly-numbered knob, WE1M654, was installed on the wrong model and caused the cycle to cut off before reaching the true "off" position — the customer was told the correct part for their model was WE01X20374. If your timing seems off after installing a different knob, double-check whether WE01X20374 is the correct part for your specific model. Is this a difficult repair? No, it's one of the simplest dryer repairs — the old knob pulls straight off the shaft and the new one presses straight on, with no tools needed. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the size, D-shaped shaft fit, and white finish of the original WE01X20374 timer knob used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, and RCA dryers.

Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. Remove the panel that gives access to the heater housing per your model's service guide, note the wire terminal positions, and disconnect them from the old thermostat. Remove the thermostat, install the new one in the same position, and reconnect the wires. A screwdriver and needle-nose pliers are typically all you need. Before closing the dryer, clean the lint trap and check the exhaust vent for restrictions, since poor airflow is a common cause of overheating. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer isn't heating or runs too hot. Is this the part I need? A failed cycling thermostat can cause either symptom. It may stay open and prevent heat, or stay closed and let the dryer overheat. Check for a clogged vent and test the thermostat for continuity before replacing it. What's the difference between the cycling thermostat and the high limit thermostat? The cycling thermostat controls normal drying temperature by switching the heating element on and off. The high limit thermostat and thermal fuse are separate safety devices that cut power if the dryer overheats. This listing is for the cycling thermostat only. How do I test this thermostat? With the dryer unplugged and the wires removed, check for continuity across the terminals with a multimeter at room temperature. A properly working cycling thermostat should show continuity when cool. No continuity means it has failed. Will this fit my dryer? It fits many Whirlpool-built dryers, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

XPARTCO DC47-00018A Dryer Hi Limit Thermostat The XPARTCO DC47-00018A is an aftermarket replacement cycling high-limit thermostat for Samsung and select Kenmore electric dryers. This is a genuine, automatically resetting thermostat — not a one-time fuse. It monitors temperature in the heating circuit and opens to cut power to the heating element at approximately 260°F, protecting the dryer from overheating. Once the temperature drops to around 210°F, it closes again on its own, letting the dryer resume heating without any part replacement needed. This thermostat works alongside a downstream thermal fuse (such as our DC96-00887C listing) in the same overheat-protection circuit. If this thermostat is cycling excessively, tripping prematurely, or failing to regulate temperature correctly, it can put stress on that thermal fuse, sometimes causing it to blow as a last-resort safety measure. Symptoms of a failing high-limit thermostat include no heat or insufficient heat, drying that takes too long, or the dryer shutting off too soon before a load is fully dry. It directly replaces 35001092, WP35001092, 1122485, AP4201898, PS4205217, EAP2430930, PS2430930, and AP6008682. Quick Answer The XPARTCO DC47-00018A Dryer Hi Limit Thermostat fixes Samsung and select Kenmore electric dryers with no heat or insufficient heat, drying that takes too long, or premature shutoff before a load is fully dry. Opens at approximately 260°F, resets automatically around 210°F. Replaces 35001092, WP35001092, 1122485, AP4201898, PS4205217, EAP2430930, PS2430930, AP6008682. This is a resettable thermostat, not a fuse — it does not need replacement after each trip. It's a different component from our DC96-00887C thermal fuse listing, though the two are often checked together. Common Problems This Part Fixes Dryer has no heat or insufficient heat Drying takes too long to complete a cycle Dryer shuts off too soon, before clothes are fully dry Timer will not advance through the cycle Dryer that stopped working suddenly after running unusually hot Dryer with a history of repeated downstream thermal fuse failures Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item. Replaces Part Numbers This dryer high-limit thermostat directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers: DC47-00018A, AP4201898, T-O-D 60T11, ASM33627, 1122485, PD00002011, PS4205217.

Compatibility This high-limit thermostat is compatible with select Samsung electric dryers, and also fits select Kenmore dryers built on the Samsung platform, including model numbers such as: DV5471AEW/XAA DV40J3000EW/A2, DV42H5000EW/A3, DV45H7000EW/A2, DV48H7400EW/A2 DV400EWHDWR/AA DVE50M7450W/A3 Note — resettable thermostat, not a fuse: This DC47-00018A is a true cycling thermostat that resets itself automatically. Our DC96-00887C listing, despite frequently being labeled a "thermostat" on other marketplaces, is actually a one-time thermal fuse mounted separately on the blower housing — it cannot reset and must be replaced once blown. The two are different device types serving the same circuit. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure. Key Features Aftermarket replacement cycling high-limit thermostat — automatically resetting, no replacement needed after each trip Opens at approximately 260°F, resets around 210°F Resolves "no heat," "insufficient heat," "takes too long to dry," and "shuts off too soon" symptoms Genuine thermostat, distinct from the downstream thermal fuse in the same circuit No special tools required for installation Replaces 35001092, WP35001092, 1122485, AP4201898, PS4205217, EAP2430930, PS2430930, and AP6008682 Compatible with Samsung and select Kenmore electric dryers Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Product Specifications Part Number XPDC47-00018A OEM Part Number DC47-00018A Part Type Dryer Cycling High-Limit Thermostat Condition Aftermarket Replacement Type Automatically resetting — not a one-time fuse Open Temperature ~260°F Reset Temperature ~210°F Related Component DC96-00887C thermal fuse (blower housing, different device, sold separately) Quantity 1 high-limit thermostat Compatible Brands Samsung, select Kenmore Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel, near the heater duct and blower housing area where this thermostat is mounted. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since this thermostat can be positioned close to other similar-looking components in the same circuit. Remove the old thermostat from its mounting position, noting orientation, and disconnect its wiring. Install the new DC47-00018A in the same position, reconnecting wiring exactly as photographed. Reassemble the panel, restore power, and run a full test cycle to confirm normal, consistent heating with no premature shutoffs. Tools needed: Phillips or nut driver (model-dependent), work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Do I need to reset this thermostat after it trips, or replace it? Neither, in normal operation — this is a genuine cycling thermostat that resets itself automatically once the dryer cools to around 210°F. You should only need to replace it if it has failed outright (stuck open, stuck closed, or no longer switching at the correct temperatures), not simply because it tripped once during normal operation. My dryer shuts off before the load is fully dry. Is that this part? It's a strong possibility. If this high-limit thermostat is tripping prematurely — opening at a lower temperature than it should — the dryer can cut heat and end the cycle early even though the load isn't actually dry yet. This is one of the more common symptoms this thermostat addresses. My thermal fuse keeps blowing. Could this thermostat be the underlying cause? Yes, this is worth investigating. This thermostat and the downstream thermal fuse (our DC96-00887C listing) protect the same circuit at different points. If this thermostat isn't regulating temperature correctly — cycling excessively or failing to catch a temperature spike — the thermal fuse can end up blowing repeatedly as the last line of defense. If you've replaced the fuse more than once, checking or replacing this thermostat at the same time is a reasonable next step. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and opening/reset temperatures of the original DC47-00018A high-limit thermostat used in compatible Samsung and Kenmore electric dryers.

XPARTCO W10613606 Refrigerator Compressor Start Relay and Capacitor The XPARTCO W10613606 is an aftermarket replacement compressor start relay and capacitor assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Crosley, Dacor, Hardwick, Inglis, Litton, and Magic Chef refrigerators. The start relay is a small but critical electrical component that plugs directly onto the compressor terminals and provides the initial power surge needed to start the compressor motor. Once the compressor reaches operating speed, the relay drops out — leaving the compressor to run on its own. The capacitor (rated 15µF ±5%, 250VAC) works alongside the relay to store and release the burst of electrical energy needed on startup. When the start relay fails, the compressor cannot start — causing the refrigerator to stop cooling entirely. A failed relay typically produces a clicking sound every few minutes as the compressor tries and fails to start, followed by a short rest, then another attempt. This kit includes both the start relay and the CBB61 capacitor. It directly replaces W10416065, 8208290, 8208368, C8931605, 67003186, 67005560, 67005561, 67005562, 67003764, 8171210, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in under 15 minutes — no tools required in most cases. Quick Answer The XPARTCO W10613606 Refrigerator Compressor Start Relay and Capacitor fixes refrigerators that are not cooling, are too warm, or are making a repeated clicking sound every few minutes as the compressor tries to start.

Move the refrigerator away from the wall to access the rear or lower back panel. Remove the rear access panel by unscrewing the retaining screws to expose the compressor. The compressor is a large black dome-shaped component — the start relay and capacitor assembly plugs onto the side terminals. Grip the old relay firmly and pull it straight off the compressor pins. Shake it — if it rattles, the internal contacts have failed and replacement is confirmed. Compare the old relay to the new W10613606 to confirm the terminal layout matches. Align the new relay with the compressor pins and press it firmly on. Reinstall the access panel, restore power, and listen for the compressor to start and run normally within a few minutes. Note: Some models may require trimming the wire connector tabs or reversing the connector orientation for a proper fit — do not force the connection. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (for panel access only). Frequently Asked Questions What does the compressor start relay do? The start relay plugs onto the compressor terminals and provides the brief but powerful surge of electrical current needed to start the compressor motor from a standstill. Once the compressor reaches operating speed — usually within a second or two — the relay drops out and the compressor runs on its own. Without a working start relay, the compressor cannot start at all, and the refrigerator stops cooling. The capacitor works alongside the relay to store and deliver the extra energy needed on startup. How do I know if my start relay has failed? The most reliable quick test is the rattle test: unplug the refrigerator, pull the start relay off the compressor, and shake it near your ear. A working relay is silent. A failed relay will rattle — the internal contacts have broken free and are loose inside the casing. Another sign is a repeated clicking sound every 2–5 minutes from the back of the refrigerator, where the compressor attempts to start, fails, trips the overload protector, rests, and tries again. If the fridge is warm and you hear clicking, check the relay first. What is the difference between the start relay and the capacitor? The start relay is the switching device that connects and disconnects the start winding of the compressor motor during startup. The capacitor stores a charge and releases it during startup to give the motor the additional torque it needs to get moving under load. Together they work as a startup system for the compressor. This kit includes both — replacing both at the same time ensures the complete startup circuit is fresh and reliable. My fridge is still not cooling after replacing the start relay — what else could it be? If replacing the start relay does not restore cooling, other possible causes include a failed compressor (the compressor runs but no longer builds pressure), a refrigerant leak in the sealed system, a failed start capacitor (if not replaced along with the relay), a bad overload protector, or a faulty main control board. Listen carefully after installing the new relay — if the compressor now starts and runs but the fridge still doesn't cool after several hours, a sealed system issue or refrigerant problem is likely and will require a certified technician. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and terminal configuration of the original W10613606 start relay and capacitor assembly.

XPARTCO W10316760 Refrigerator Thermistor Sensor The XPARTCO W10316760 is an aftermarket replacement temperature thermistor compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-built refrigerators sold under the Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Inglis, and Magic Chef brands. The thermistor sits inside the fresh food or freezer compartment and continuously reports internal temperature back to the electronic control board, which uses that reading to cycle the compressor, evaporator fan, and damper to keep the compartment in range. When the thermistor drifts out of calibration or fails outright, the control board loses an accurate temperature signal and the refrigerator commonly responds with erratic cooling, a warmer-than-normal compartment, food freezing when it shouldn't, or a flashing/blank temperature display. This XPARTCO version is built with a quick-connect mounting clip, so it plugs in without cutting or splicing wires — unlike the genuine Whirlpool OEM part, which ships as a splice-in kit requiring you to cut the old thermistor's leads and join the new ones with included wire connectors. It directly replaces W10316760, WPW10323459, W10323459, 12791417, 12791417SP, 12791419SP, 1876627, W10280385, W10280386, W10308052, W10316760VP, W10438639, W10438761, W10452402, AH2580944, AP4538142, AWP40532, EA2580944, EAP2580944, PD00006590, PS2580944, and additional cross-reference numbers listed below. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools. Quick Answer The XPARTCO W10316760 Refrigerator Thermistor Sensor fixes Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Inglis, and Magic Chef refrigerators that are running warm, running constantly, freezing food unexpectedly, or showing a flashing/blank temperature display. This version uses a quick-connect clip — no wire cutting or splicing like the genuine Whirlpool splice-kit version requires.

Plug the new thermistor's connector into the wiring harness, matching your photos. Reassemble any panels removed for access. Restore power and allow the refrigerator several hours to stabilize before checking temperatures. Tools needed: nut driver or screwdriver (for panel access), needle-nose pliers (for mounting clip). Frequently Asked Questions Is this the same as the genuine Whirlpool W10316760 thermistor? It's a direct-fit aftermarket equivalent, not the genuine Whirlpool part. The key functional difference is installation: the genuine OEM version ships as a splice-in kit requiring you to cut the old wires and use included splice connectors, while this XPARTCO version has a quick-connect clip that simply plugs in — no splicing tools needed. Will this fit my refrigerator? W10316760 and its cross-reference numbers span a wide range of Whirlpool-built models across several brands. Confirm fit using your refrigerator's exact model number before ordering, since visually similar thermistors are used across different platforms and compartment locations. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure. My fridge is warm but the freezer is fine (or vice versa) — could this part be the cause? Yes. Most of these refrigerators use separate thermistors for the fresh food and freezer compartments, so a single failed sensor can cause one section to run warm while the other stays normal. Confirm which sensor location your model uses before ordering. Do I need any tools to install this? Basic hand tools to access the interior panel (typically a nut driver or screwdriver) plus needle-nose pliers to release the old mounting clip. Because this version uses a plug-style connector, no wire strippers, cutters, or splice connectors are needed — unlike the genuine OEM splice-kit version. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical resistance curve, mounting position, and temperature-sensing function of the original W10316760 thermistor used in compatible Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Inglis, and Magic Chef refrigerators.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Depending on your refrigerator model, the fresh-food temperature sensor is typically located behind the air tower or damper assembly on the rear interior wall of the refrigerator compartment; the freezer temperature sensor is typically located behind the rear freezer access panel near the evaporator coils. Confirm which sensor location matches your symptom and the parts diagram for your specific model before starting. Remove all shelves, drawers, and any items blocking access to the sensor location. Remove the screws holding the air tower/damper cover (fresh food side) or rear freezer access panel to expose the sensor. Photograph the sensor position, wire routing, and connector before removing. Disconnect the wire connector (gently — the connector can be fragile) and release the sensor from its mounting clip. Fully insert the new 240597220 sensor probe into the card slot (no exposure) and secure with the mounting clip. Reconnect the wire connector — plug wiring terminals tightly to avoid poor contact. Use cable ties to secure any loose wire routing as before. Reinstall the cover or panel, replace the shelves and drawers, and plug the refrigerator back in. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, cable ties, multimeter (for testing), work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions What does OP error code mean on my Frigidaire refrigerator? The OP error code (Open) indicates the control board is detecting an open circuit on a temperature sensor input — meaning the sensor is failing to send a resistance signal, either because the sensor itself has failed open internally, the wire has broken, or the connector isn't seated. Replacing the temperature sensor typically resolves the code when the sensor itself is the cause. If the code persists after replacement, check the wire harness between the sensor and the control board for damage, and confirm the connector is fully seated. If the OP code appears alongside other symptoms like frost buildup and cooling issues that persist after sensor replacement, the defrost temperature sensor (on the Harness-Low Side, a different part number) may also need to be replaced, or the main control board may be at fault. How do I test if the temperature sensor has failed? Unplug the refrigerator, disconnect the sensor's wire connector, and set your multimeter to resistance mode. At room temperature (approximately 25°C / 77°F), a working NTC thermistor should read approximately 10K Ohms. If the sensor reads 0 ohms, it has shorted internally. If it reads infinite resistance (open circuit, often shown as "OL" on the multimeter), the sensor has failed open. If it reads significantly off from 10K (for example 8.4K or 5K at room temp), the sensor has drifted and is no longer providing accurate readings — replacement is recommended. Any of these results confirms the sensor needs replacement. My refrigerator has multiple temperature sensors — which one do I replace? Frigidaire refrigerators typically use multiple temperature sensors: one in the fresh food compartment (behind the air tower/damper), one in the freezer compartment (near the evaporator coils), and often a separate defrost temperature sensor on the Harness-Low Side. The 240597203 is used as the fresh food or freezer compartment temperature sensor. If your symptom is "fresh food too warm" or "freezer over-freezing," the fresh food sensor is the likely candidate. If your symptom is "freezer icing up despite defrost heater working," the defrost temperature sensor may be the culprit — a different part number. Check your refrigerator's parts diagram to confirm the correct sensor location for your specific symptom. Does this sensor fit my Kenmore refrigerator? On many Kenmore refrigerators, yes — Sears sells Kenmore-branded refrigerators that are manufactured by Frigidaire/Electrolux, Whirlpool, LG, and Samsung. The 240597203 sensor fits Kenmore refrigerators with model numbers beginning with the 253, 106, or 795 prefixes that are Frigidaire/Electrolux-built. Kenmore refrigerators built by other manufacturers (Whirlpool, LG, Samsung) use different sensors. Check the first three digits of your Kenmore model number — if it's 253, 106, or 795 and falls within the compatible model list, this is the correct part. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire/Electrolux to factory specifications. It is the exact same temperature sensor installed in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, White-Westinghouse, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, Viking, and Ikea refrigerators from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO WE1M652 Dryer Timer Knob The XPARTCO WE1M652 is an aftermarket replacement timer control knob for GE dryers, and also fits select Hotpoint and Kenmore models. This knob mounts onto the timer's D-shaped shaft and is what you turn to select and adjust the dryer's cycle setting — it's the direct physical interface between you and the timer mechanism inside the control panel. Finished in white, this knob measures 3" in diameter and accepts a D-shaped shaft. Over time, the knob can crack, break, or simply be lost, or the shaft opening can wear enough that the knob spins freely without actually turning the timer setting. A worn or damaged knob typically shows up as a cracked or broken knob, a knob that won't stay seated on the shaft, a knob that spins without adjusting the cycle, or cycle markings that have become worn and unreadable.

Key Features Aftermarket replacement timer control knob — direct interface for selecting the dryer's cycle setting Resolves "cracked or broken knob," "spins without adjusting," and "won't stay on the shaft" symptoms White finish, 3" diameter Accepts a D-shaped shaft Reinforced metal ring at the stem for improved durability against cracking Direct drop-in replacement — no tools required for most installations Replaces 1264289, AH1482196, EA1482196, AP3995164, AGE25175, EAP1482196, PD00024388, PS1482196 Compatible with GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore dryers Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Product Specifications Part Number WE1M652 OEM Part Number WE1M652 Part Type Dryer Timer Control Knob Condition Aftermarket Replacement Color White Diameter 3" Dimensions 1-3/4"H x 2-3/4"W x 2-3/4"D Shaft Type D-shaped Reinforcement Metal ring at stem Repair Difficulty Very Easy — no tools typically required Quantity 1 timer knob Compatible Brands GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — The Fit Can Be Snug Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Remove the old knob by pulling it straight off the control shaft — no tools are typically required, though some customers have found the fit quite snug and needed a firm, steady pull with some leverage to remove the old knob or seat the new one fully. Align the D-shaped socket on the new WE1M652 with the flat side of the timer shaft, then press the new knob firmly onto the shaft until it's fully seated. Restore power and test that the knob turns the timer setting correctly through its full range, confirming the dryer starts and progresses through the cycle as expected. Tools needed: none typically required. Frequently Asked Questions My old knob cracked and I replaced it with a similar-looking one, but now my drying time seems off. What happened? This is a documented issue when the wrong knob is installed. GE's own support has confirmed that a similarly-numbered knob, WE1M654, is not correct for all models and, if installed on the wrong dryer, causes the cycle to cut off before reaching the true "off" position, throwing off drying time even though the knob may physically fit onto the shaft. If your timing seems off after a knob replacement, double-check that WE1M652 (not WE1M654) is the correct part for your specific model. My knob spins freely without changing the cycle. Is this the right part? Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms this knob resolves. If the knob's D-shaped socket has worn out or become stripped, it can no longer grip the timer's shaft properly, letting the knob spin without actually turning the internal timer mechanism. Is this hard to install? No, it's one of the simplest dryer repairs — the old knob pulls straight off the shaft and the new one presses straight on, with no tools needed. Some customers have noted the fit is quite snug and takes a bit of extra force to fully seat, but no special skills or hardware are required. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the size, D-shaped shaft fit, and white finish of the original WE1M652 timer knob used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore dryers.

The thermistor location varies by model — it is typically clipped to a bracket on the interior side wall of the fresh food or freezer compartment, or mounted near the evaporator coil. Consult your model's parts diagram or service manual to confirm the exact location before disassembly. Open the sensor cover or unclip the sensor bracket, disconnect the wiring connector, and pull the old thermistor out. Insert the new 2188820 thermistor, reconnect the wiring connector, and snap the cover or bracket back into place. Ensure the sensor head is positioned close to the compartment wall and the wiring is not pinched. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator temperature over the next few hours to confirm stable, accurate cooling. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (for panel access on some models); no tools needed for sensor replacement itself. Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between 2188820 and WP2188820? These are the same thermistor. WP2188820 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original 2188820. The 2213442 is also a cross-reference for the same part. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all three numbers. What does an NTC thermistor do and how do I know if mine has failed? An NTC thermistor is a resistor whose resistance decreases as temperature increases. The control board sends a small voltage through the thermistor and measures the resulting resistance — a lower resistance means warmer temperature, and a higher resistance means cooler temperature. The board uses this reading to decide when to run the compressor and fans. A failed thermistor either reads open circuit (no continuity), short circuit (zero resistance), or provides incorrect readings that cause the refrigerator to run too warm, too cold, or cycle erratically. Test with a multimeter at room temperature — a working 2188820 should read approximately 50K ohms at 25°C (77°F). Significant deviation indicates failure. How do I know if my refrigerator uses the WISE system? The WISE (Whirlpool Intelligent Smart Energy) system was introduced on newer Whirlpool refrigerator models and uses a different thermistor specification that is not interchangeable with the 2188820. Models that use the WISE system are typically marked in the product documentation or on the control board. The easiest way to confirm compatibility is to verify your model number with our support team before ordering, or check whether WP2188820 appears in your model's official parts diagram. If your parts diagram lists WP2188820, this replacement is compatible. Where is the thermistor located in my refrigerator? The thermistor location varies by model and brand. On Whirlpool and KitchenAid models, it is commonly found on the interior side wall of the fresh food compartment clipped to a plastic housing. On some models it is located near the evaporator coil behind the freezer back panel. On Kenmore 106 series models, it may be on the fresh food section wall or inside the back panel. Consult your specific model's parts diagram or search for a model-specific installation video to locate the sensor before disassembling the refrigerator. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured with an NTC thermistor rated to the same 50K ohm specification as the original WP2188820 to match the performance and accuracy of the factory sensor.
