Quick shipping/delivery. From other reviews here, I realized the Orange and Red cable terminals can exchange the connection prong. The related AppliancePartsPros youtube video gives step by step instructions to replace it. My fridge holds temperature now.

Fridge is 13 years old and has never worked better. Holds temp very accurately now. Must be a part redesign as original one never held temp very well. It finally stopped completely. Installed this one and all is well

I used this to replace a Kitchenaid refrigerator thermostat due to the freezer not staying frozen. The freezer works perfectly just fine after replacement. The only issue was that the terminal on this model were not marked so I was not sure how to connect it since they were different than the original. After a quick internet search, I was able find it didn't matter how the terminals were connected.

Our fridge just stopped working. After researching potential issues, a YT video said to tap on the area where the thermostat is located. If the fright starts working again then the thermostat is bad. This took about 30 minutes to do with a bit of tech know how. Fridge works great now.

Fit perfectly in my refrigerator. Installation instructions were clear. I was able to install in less than half an hour. In time the temperature has adjusted to where it needs to be. Much cheaper than buying a new refrigerator. With help of this part. And YouTube videos installation was not difficult.

My Kenmore frig would not reliably keep temperature. However, if I tapped the thermostat control panel, the unit would start up, indicating a bad thermostat / relay. This replacement unit arrived quickly and yes, it did fit in my frig although the two relay contacts are in a slightly different location although I was still able to use the wiring harness "as is". What makes the install a little difficult is snaking the new copper sensor wire inside the frig back to the rear of the case. Also, my old part had a plastic tube around the copper sensor which I had to remove and reinstall on the new unit which was a little difficult. Total time for the install was about an hour. Unit now works good and holds temp.

Whirlpool OEM Part solved my Kenmore side by side temperature problem. My freezer was fluctuating temps from -10F to 20F and refrig side temp was swinging too. When compressor came on it would sometimes not stop. Other times it would not come on at all. It would start or strop if I tapped the area by the fridge temp control lever. This part solved the problem and now temp is steady and compressor only comes on/off when necessary.
