Review on 🧊 LONYE W10225581 Defrost Thermostat for Whirlpool Sears Refrigerator – Compatible with WPW10225581, AP6017375, PS11750673, PS237680, 2321799 by Douglas Irwin

The perfect replacement for my Kenmore Side by Side fridge. Installation took about half an hour. This thermostat turns off the heater that heats the cooling coils during the automatic defrost cycle. Once the ice on the cooling coils has melted and they begin to heat, this thermostat cuts power to the heater even if there is time remaining in the defrost cycle, which is controlled by a timer (typically around 30 minutes every 8 minutes). . till 12 o'clock). There were symptoms. The freezer compartment stayed cold while the fridge side was warm. Defrosting the freezer solves the problem for a few days, but then the fridge starts heating up again. So if that thermostat in the freezer were to fail, the freezer coils would freeze and airflow would not be able to flow from the fridge, through the freezer, and back into the fridge.
