LONYE 5303918214 Refrigerator Defrost Thermostat kit Replacement for Frigidaire Electrolux fridges AP2150145 PS469522 75303918214

The defrost thermostat protects the evaporator from overheating during the defrost cycle. The defrost thermostat monitors the temperature of the evaporator coils. When the coils drop below a set temperature, the thermostat sends power to the defrost heater. If the defrost thermostat is defective, the refrigerator will not defrost. To access the defrost thermostat for this repair, you will need to remove your freezer shelves, as well as the back panel of your freezer. To complete this repair, you will need a 1/4-inch nut driver, a set of wire strippers and crimpers, and a heat gun or blow dryer. Before you begin this repair, be sure to disconnect the power source from the appliance.
