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

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 XP8767 Dryer Thermostat Set — DC47-00018A, DC96-00887C, DC47-00016A, DC32-00007A
The XPARTCO XP8767 is an aftermarket dryer thermal component set containing four heat-sensing and safety parts for select Samsung and Kenmore dryers. The set includes the high-limit thermostat (DC47-00018A), thermal fuse with bracket (DC96-00887C), blower housing thermal fuse (DC47-00016A), and thermistor temperature sensor (DC32-00007A) — the complete set of thermal components that regulate temperature and prevent overheating in compatible Samsung dryers.
When any one of these components fails, the dryer may produce no heat, run too hot, shut off too early, or fail to start. Because overheating events that blow a thermal fuse also stress the other thermal components, replacing all four together in a single repair is the recommended approach. The DC96-00887C replaces the DC96-00887A used in earlier models — both are included in this kit's cross-references. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer and Shut Off Gas Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Remove the back panel of the dryer to access the heating element housing and exhaust duct. Take a photo of all wire connections before disconnecting anything — the thermistor and thermal fuses use similar small connectors and it is important to reconnect them to the correct terminals. The DC47-00018A high-limit thermostat is mounted on the heating element housing — unscrew and replace it. The DC96-00887C thermal fuse with bracket is mounted on the exhaust duct — unscrew, remove the bracket assembly, and install the new one. The DC47-00016A thermal fuse is on the blower housing — disconnect the wires and unscrew or unclip it. The DC32-00007A thermistor is clipped to the blower housing — pull the old one out and press the new one into the clip. Reconnect all wires, reassemble the back panel, restore power, and run a test cycle. Tip: Clean the full length of the exhaust duct before running the dryer after this repair. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does each part in this set do?
The DC47-00018A high-limit thermostat monitors the heating element temperature and cuts power to the element at 260°F if the dryer gets too hot — it resets automatically when cooled. The DC96-00887C thermal fuse is a one-time safety device on the exhaust duct that permanently cuts power to the heat source at 320°F if the dryer overheats. The DC47-00016A is a second one-time thermal fuse on the blower housing that cuts power to the motor if overheating occurs there. The DC32-00007A thermistor monitors real-time drum temperature and sends resistance-based readings to the control board, which uses them to regulate the drying cycle and control the heating element.
What is the difference between DC96-00887A and DC96-00887C?
The DC96-00887C is the updated current part number that superseded the DC96-00887A. Both are the same thermal fuse with bracket used on the exhaust duct — the C suffix denotes a minor revision. Either part number is covered by this kit and both are fully interchangeable.
How do I test these parts with a multimeter?
Set the multimeter to continuity or resistance mode. At room temperature, the DC47-00018A high-limit thermostat and both thermal fuses (DC96-00887C and DC47-00016A) should all show closed continuity (near-zero resistance). Any of these that reads open (no continuity) has failed. The DC32-00007A thermistor should show a resistance reading at room temperature — typically around 10,000–50,000 ohms depending on ambient temperature — rather than zero or open. A thermistor that reads open or zero at room temperature has failed.
Why should I replace all four parts instead of just the one that failed?
When a thermal fuse blows in a Samsung dryer, it almost always means the dryer overheated — and that overheating event stresses all four thermal components simultaneously. Replacing just the blown fuse without replacing the other parts risks a repeat failure if the thermistor is providing incorrect readings or the high-limit thermostat is no longer protecting accurately. Replacing all four parts at once renews the entire thermal circuit and reduces the chance of a repeat failure in the near future.
Is this set for electric and gas Samsung dryers?
Yes — the XP8767 set is compatible with both electric (DVE series) and gas (DVG series) Samsung dryers that use these four thermal components. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm all four parts apply to your dryer.

DE92-02588G Genuine OEM Samsung Range Control Board
The DE92-02588G is a genuine Samsung OEM main control board and clock assembly for Samsung gas ranges. This board is the range's central processor for the oven side of the appliance — it monitors oven temperature, drives the heating functions, and includes the digital display that shows the time and temperature settings. Every button press on the control panel is interpreted here, and every heating command the oven executes is issued from this board.
Samsung's own service guidance draws a clear line for when this board is the correct part: order it when the range display is completely blank or unresponsive, or when the clock/timer still works but none of the oven's heating functions operate. It is specifically the wrong part when only certain buttons fail to respond or specific functions are missing while the rest of the panel works normally — that pattern points to a failed switch membrane (touchpad) instead, a separate component. Power surges, including lightning strikes near the home's electrical service, are a documented real-world cause of this board failing outright. It directly replaces AP5800586, 3553835, and PS8764724.
Quick Answer
The DE92-02588G Genuine OEM Samsung Range Control Board fixes Samsung gas ranges with a completely blank or unresponsive display, or a range where the clock/timer works but none of the oven's heating functions operate. Includes the digital clock/display. Replaces AP5800586, 3553835, PS8764724. Do NOT order this board if only certain buttons don't respond or specific functions are missing while everything else works — that points to a failed switch membrane (touchpad), not this board.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Range display is completely blank or dead
Control panel is entirely unresponsive to any button press
Clock and timer function normally, but no oven heating functions work at all
Oven won't heat despite the range otherwise appearing to have power
SE or similar error code displayed on the control panel
Range that stopped working suddenly after a power surge or nearby lightning strike
Digital display showing incorrect or scrambled time/temperature readings
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 range control board directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:

NX58R4311SS, NX58R4311SG
Note: Before ordering, confirm your symptom matches this board specifically. If the display is blank/dead, or the clock works but heating functions don't, this board is correct. If only some buttons or functions fail while others work fine, the issue is very likely the switch membrane (touchpad) instead — a separate part from this control board. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Range Or Shut Off Breaker Before Starting — Handle The Board By Its Edges Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breaker before beginning to avoid electrical hazards, and allow the range to cool if recently used. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear of the control panel: remove the screws securing the back cover to reach the board. Photograph all harness connections before disconnecting anything — this board has multiple connectors, and getting one out of place will cause a no-start or miswired symptom. Handle the new board by its edges rather than touching the components directly, and avoid working on a carpeted surface or in conditions with static buildup, since these boards can be sensitive to static discharge. Remove the mounting screws, disconnect each harness connector from the old board, and lift it free. Install the new DE92-02588G in the same orientation, reconnect every harness connector exactly as photographed, and secure the mounting screws. Reinstall the rear cover, restore power, and test the display, clock, and all oven functions to confirm normal operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Some of my buttons don't respond but others work fine. Do I need this board?
Probably not. Samsung's own guidance is specific here: if certain buttons don't respond, specific functions are missing, or you can't adjust particular settings while the rest of the panel works normally, that pattern points to a failed switch membrane (touchpad) rather than this main control board. This board is the correct part when the display is completely blank/dead, or when the clock and timer work but no heating functions operate at all.
My range stopped working right after a thunderstorm. Could that be related?
Yes, this is a documented real-world cause of this exact board failing. Power surges, including those from a nearby lightning strike, can damage the control board's circuitry outright, leading to a sudden and complete loss of function. If your range died abruptly during or shortly after a storm, this board is a strong candidate for the cause.
Should I replace the switch membrane at the same time, just in case?
Some people do replace both together, especially if they want to be certain the repair is complete on the first attempt rather than risk needing a second repair shortly after. But if your symptoms clearly match this board (blank display, or clock works with no heat) rather than the switch membrane's symptoms (some buttons unresponsive, others fine), replacing just this board is usually sufficient.
Does this board include the digital clock and display?
Yes. This is a combined control board and clock assembly — the digital display for time and temperature settings is part of this same board, not a separate component.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?

WH12X10531 Genuine OEM GE Washer Lid Switch Assembly
The WH12X10531 is a genuine GE OEM lid switch assembly for GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café top-load washers. This switch detects whether the washer's lid is closed, and the control board relies on that signal to allow the machine to proceed with agitation and spin — without a proper "lid closed" signal, the washer won't safely operate those cycle stages.
Over time, the internal switch mechanism can wear out or fail electrically. A failing lid switch typically shows up as the washer stopping mid-cycle unexpectedly, or the tub failing to spin even though the wash portion of the cycle completes normally, since the control interprets a bad or missing signal as the lid being open. It directly replaces WH12X10275, 2319707, AGE26465, AP5646395, PD00031363, PS5135698
Quick Answer
The WH12X10531 Genuine OEM GE Washer Lid Switch Assembly fixes GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café top-load washers that stop mid-cycle unexpectedly, or where the tub fails to spin even though washing completes normally.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Open the washer lid and locate the lid switch assembly mounted at the front of the cabinet, typically accessible after removing the console or a portion of the top panel depending on your model. Photograph the wiring harness connection before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws, disconnect the wiring harness connector from the old switch, and pull it free. Install the new WH12X10531 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the washer proceeds through the full cycle, including agitation and spin, without stopping unexpectedly. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer stops in the middle of the cycle. Is this the lid switch?
Yes, this is a classic symptom of a failed lid switch. The control board relies on this switch to confirm the lid is closed before allowing the washer to continue through agitation and spin — if the switch fails or sends an inconsistent signal, the washer can interpret that as the lid being open and stop the cycle unexpectedly.
My washer washes fine but the tub won't spin. Could that be this part too?
Yes. Spin cycles in particular require confirmation that the lid is securely closed as a safety measure, so a failing lid switch can allow the wash portion to run while still preventing the spin cycle from engaging, since the control board won't spin the tub without that closed-lid signal.
Is this the same lid switch as other GE washer parts you sell?
Not necessarily — GE has used several different lid switch designs across its top-load washer lineup, including other similarly-numbered parts elsewhere in our catalog. Always match your exact original part number, or your full washer model number, rather than assuming any "GE lid switch" will fit your machine.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original switch mechanism and mounting configuration of the lid switch assembly originally installed in your washer.

XPARTCO 8557403 Dryer High-Limit Thermostat with Thermistor Replaces WP8557403
The XPARTCO 8557403 is an aftermarket replacement dryer high-limit thermostat and thermistor sensor assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Roper, Admiral, Norge, and Magic Chef electric dryers — including the Whirlpool Duet and Maytag MED series. This single component combines two functions: the high-limit thermostat (rated L146-44C, opens at 295°F) acts as a resettable safety switch that cuts power to the heating element if the dryer air temperature exceeds safe limits, and the integrated 50-ohm thermistor continuously monitors air temperature and sends resistance-based readings to the control board to regulate the drying cycle.
When this part fails — whether the thermostat opens permanently or the thermistor provides incorrect temperature data — the dryer may produce no heat, run too hot, take too long to dry, overheat, or display temperature-related error codes. It measures 1-5/8"L x 1-5/8"W x 2"H with approximately 1-5/8" between mounting holes and is constructed from black/gray plastic and metal. It directly replaces WP8557403, 1180102, AP6013164, EAP11746386, PD00003588, and PS11746386. Note: the exhaust duct thermostat and thermal fuse are separate parts — if those have also failed, they must be ordered separately. Installs in 15–20 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Electric Dryers Only Disconnect power before beginning. The 8557403 thermostat/thermistor assembly is typically located on the heating element housing or duct inside the dryer — access it by removing the back panel. On Whirlpool Duet and Maytag front-load-style dryers, the component may be accessible by removing the lower front panel. Photograph all wire connections before disconnecting — the thermistor wires and thermostat wires must be reconnected to the correct terminals. Remove the two mounting screws and pull the old assembly off. Note the position and orientation before removing. Install the new 8557403 assembly in the same position and orientation, reconnect all wires, and reinstall the mounting screws and panel. Restore power and run a test heat cycle to confirm normal operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this part unusual — why does it combine a thermostat and a thermistor?
The WP8557403 is a combined assembly used on newer Whirlpool Duet and Maytag MED series dryers that use electronic temperature control rather than purely mechanical thermostats. The high-limit thermostat (L146-44C) provides the traditional safety function — it opens the circuit if dryer temperature exceeds 295°F. The integrated NTC thermistor continuously reports resistance-based temperature data to the electronic control board, which uses the data to regulate the heating element and control cycle timing. Both functions are built into a single compact housing, making this a unique part that replaces what older dryers used to handle with separate components.
How do I test the thermostat and thermistor?
Set your multimeter to continuity or resistance mode. For the thermostat portion: probe the thermostat terminals — at room temperature, a working thermostat shows closed continuity (near-zero resistance). An open circuit at room temperature confirms the thermostat has failed. For the thermistor portion: probe the thermistor terminals — at room temperature (approximately 25°C/77°F), a working 50-ohm NTC thermistor should read approximately 50 ohms. A reading of zero ohms (shorted) or open circuit (no continuity) confirms the thermistor has failed. Either failure mode warrants replacing the complete 8557403 assembly.
What is the difference between 8557403 and WP8557403?
These are the same part. WP8557403 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original 8557403. The 1180102 is also a cross-reference for this same assembly. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all of these numbers.
Do I also need to replace the thermal fuse or cycling thermostat?
The 8557403 replaces the high-limit thermostat and thermistor mounted on the heating element housing area. The exhaust duct thermal fuse (WP3392519 on most Whirlpool-family dryers) and cycling thermostat (WP3387134) are separate components located on the exhaust duct and are not included in or replaced by the 8557403. If your dryer has no heat, test all thermal components before ordering — check the 8557403 assembly, the thermal fuse, and the cycling thermostat, then order only what has failed. If an overheating event caused the high-limit to fail, the other thermal components may be stressed as well.
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 from plastic and metal with an L146-44C thermostat and 50-ohm NTC thermistor to match the specifications and performance of the original WP8557403 assembly.

XPARTCO W10810403 Washer Lid Switch Assembly
The XPARTCO W10810403 is an aftermarket replacement lid lock assembly for Whirlpool Cabrio and Maytag Bravos XL top-load washers. Positioned on the underside of the washer lid, this assembly detects whether the lid is open or closed and locks it shut during the wash cycle, preventing the washer from spinning or agitating — and preventing the lid from being opened — while the cycle is running. This is a safety mechanism as much as a functional one, keeping users from contacting moving parts or being splashed by water or detergent mid-cycle.
This assembly includes the lid lock mechanism and its wiring harness, and ships with a white bezel. Many of these lid locks also contain an internal fuse as part of the switch circuit — if that fuse blows, the symptom isn't limited to lid-related errors; it can prevent the entire control board from powering up at all, since the switch sits in the same circuit path. A failing lid lock typically shows up as the lid not closing or locking properly, the washer failing to start, the cycle stopping mid-way, or in more severe cases, a completely unresponsive control panel with no lights at all. It directly replaces AP5984435, PS11722981, W10648012, W10787878, W10697793, W10787880, AP5999414, and PS11731620.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10810403 Washer Lid Switch Assembly fixes Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Bravos XL, and select Kenmore 600/700 Series top-load washers where the lid won't lock, the washer won't start, the cycle stops mid-way, or the control panel is completely unresponsive with no lights. White bezel. Replaces AP5984435, PS11722981, W10648012, W10787878, W10697793, W10787880, AP5999414, PS11731620. If your original lock has a grey bezel, you need part number W10861642 instead — same mechanism, different bezel color, so match the color of your existing lock before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Lid won't lock or lock reliably during the cycle
Lid won't open after a cycle finishes
Washer won't start
Washer won't agitate or spin because the lid isn't sensed as locked
Cycle stops partway through
Washer pumps but won't spin
Control panel completely unresponsive with no lights, potentially from an internal fuse in the switch circuit

Note — bezel color and lid lock platform both matter: This assembly has a white bezel. If your original lock has a grey bezel, order W10861642 instead — same lock mechanism, different bezel color. Separately, Whirlpool has used several distinct lid lock designs across its Cabrio-era washer lineup, including a different 3-wire electronic lock (our W11670519 listing) used on other Cabrio/MVW models. These are not the same part despite both serving Cabrio-platform washers. Always verify your full model number and match your original lock's exact part number before ordering.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Open the washer lid and locate the lid lock assembly mounted on its underside, typically secured with a couple of screws. Photograph the wiring harness connection before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws, disconnect the wiring harness connector from the old assembly, and pull it free. Install the new W10810403 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the lid locks securely, the washer starts and completes a full cycle, and the lid unlocks normally once finished. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My control panel has no lights at all. Could the lid lock really cause that?
Yes, and this is a less obvious but documented cause. Some of these lid lock assemblies include an internal fuse as part of the switch circuit. If that fuse blows, it can prevent the control board from powering up entirely, producing a completely dark, unresponsive panel rather than a symptom that's obviously tied to the lid. If your washer has no lights and no response at all, this lock assembly is worth checking alongside the more obvious suspects.
My old lock has a grey bezel. Can I still use this part?
This specific listing has a white bezel. If your original lock is grey, order part number W10861642 instead — it's the same lock mechanism, just finished with a grey bezel to match certain washer trim colors. Using the wrong bezel color won't affect function, but it will look mismatched against your washer's lid.
Is this the same lock used on all Cabrio washers?
No — Whirlpool has used more than one lid lock design across its Cabrio-era lineup. This W10810403 is a distinct assembly from other Cabrio/MVW-platform locks, such as our W11670519 listing, which uses a different 3-wire electronic locking design. Always match your exact original part number rather than assuming any "Cabrio lock" will fit, since the mounting and electrical interface can differ between designs.
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 locking mechanism, wiring harness, and bezel design of the original W10810403 lid lock assembly used in compatible Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Bravos XL, and related top-load washers.

XPARTCO 242046001 Refrigerator Defrost Thermostat
The XPARTCO 242046001 is an aftermarket replacement defrost termination thermostat compatible with a wide range of Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Tappan, Westinghouse, White-Westinghouse, and Kenmore refrigerators — including French door, side-by-side, and bottom-freezer models across the CFD, DGHF, E23BC, and EI23BC series. The defrost thermostat is a bi-metal safety device clipped to the evaporator coil or defrost heater tube in the freezer compartment. During the defrost cycle, it monitors the coil temperature and opens its circuit once the coil warms to roughly 50–60°F (10–15°C), which cuts power to the defrost heater. This confirms all the ice has melted and prevents the heater from continuing to run and overheating the freezer.
When the thermostat fails, one of two things happens: it can fail open (the defrost heater never runs, so ice builds up on the coils until airflow is blocked and cooling fails), or it can fail closed (the heater runs too long, overheating the compartment and often producing water pooling at the bottom of the freezer or leaking onto the floor). Features a cylindrical metallic body with two blue wires and white electrical connectors. Specification code L47-22F. Wire leads approximately 7.9". It directly replaces 242046001, 240386402, 240386403, AP4508400, 1564839, AH2378768, EA2378768, PS2378768, and L47-22F. Tip: the defrost thermostat, defrost heater, and defrost timer/control board form the defrost system and often fail together — replacing them as a set while the panel is off saves a repeat repair. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer

Note: The defrost thermostat, defrost heater, and defrost timer/control board work together as a system — when one fails, the others have typically experienced the same age and stress. Since the rear freezer access panel must already be off and all three components are right next to each other, replacing them together in one session prevents a repeat repair. Always verify your appliance model number before ordering.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator and Move Perishable Food Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator from the electrical outlet and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The defrost thermostat is located in the freezer compartment behind the rear evaporator access panel. Remove all freezer shelves, drawers, and the ice maker (if equipped) to clear access to the back wall. If there's heavy ice buildup covering the coils, allow the freezer to thaw completely before continuing — never chip or pry ice off the evaporator coils, as the aluminum fins damage easily and a damaged coil is a far more expensive repair. Remove the screws securing the rear evaporator access panel and carefully detach it to expose the evaporator coils, defrost heater, and defrost thermostat. Locate the thermostat — it's the small cylindrical metal component clipped onto the evaporator coil or the defrost heater tube, with two blue wires. Photograph the wiring connections and mounting position before disconnecting. Carefully disconnect the electrical connectors from the old thermostat, noting their orientation. Release the mounting clip and remove the old thermostat. Clip the new 242046001 thermostat onto the coil or heater tube in the exact same position — good thermal contact with the coil is essential for the thermostat to sense the temperature correctly. Reconnect the electrical connectors. While the panel is open, inspect the defrost heater and defrost timer/control board — if either is damaged or you're chasing a defrost problem, this is the ideal time to replace them too. Reinstall the rear access panel, shelves, drawers, and ice maker. Plug the refrigerator back in and allow several hours for the unit to return to its set temperature. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a defrost thermostat actually do?
It's the "off switch" for your refrigerator's defrost heater. Frost naturally accumulates on the evaporator coils during normal cooling. Periodically, the defrost timer/control board turns on the defrost heater to melt that frost. The defrost thermostat — a bi-metal switch clipped right to the coil — monitors the coil's temperature during this cycle. When the coil warms to approximately 47°F (its L47-22F rating — indicating all the ice has melted), the thermostat opens its circuit and cuts power to the heater. This stops the heater before it overheats the freezer compartment, and saves energy. Without a working thermostat, the defrost cycle either never runs (ice builds up) or runs too long (overheating and water pooling).
I found water pooling in my freezer — is the defrost thermostat the cause?
Quite possibly. A defrost thermostat that fails closed (stuck in the "on" position) lets the defrost heater run far longer than it should. The excess heat melts more than just the frost on the coils, producing more water than the drain can handle — which pools at the bottom of the freezer and can leak onto the floor. This is a commonly misdiagnosed symptom: many people assume they have a water line leak when the actual culprit is a failed defrost thermostat. If you're seeing unexplained water in the freezer or on the floor and there's no obvious water line issue, check the defrost thermostat. Also verify the defrost drain isn't clogged, which produces similar symptoms.
How do I test the defrost thermostat?
With the refrigerator unplugged, disconnect the thermostat's wire connectors and set your multimeter to continuity mode. A working defrost thermostat should show continuity when it's cold (below its opening temperature — which it will be if it's been in the freezer). If it reads open (no continuity) while cold, the thermostat has failed and needs replacement. For a more thorough test, place the thermostat in ice water (should show continuity), then warm it above its ~47°F opening point (should open — no continuity). If it doesn't switch at the correct temperatures, replace it. Another visual check: if the top of the thermostat has popped up or bulged, that's a sign it has failed.
Should I replace the defrost heater and timer at the same time?
Yes, it's strongly recommended. The defrost thermostat, defrost heater, and defrost timer/control board work together as a system — the timer initiates the defrost cycle, the heater melts the frost, and the thermostat terminates the cycle when the coil is clear. When one component fails, the others have typically experienced the same age and thermal stress, and a near-term failure of another defrost component is common. Since the rear access panel is already off and all three components are right there next to each other, replacing them together in a single session prevents a repeat repair down the road.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Frigidaire/Electrolux OEM part, but is manufactured to match the L47-22F specification (opening at approximately 47°F), bi-metal switching function, cylindrical body, two-blue-wire connector configuration, and tube-mount clip of the original 242046001 defrost termination thermostat used in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Tappan, Westinghouse, and Kenmore refrigerators.
