Product review (5 stars): Solves the problem if your fridge gets cold only for a few hours, then everything melts
My fridge would work for about 6 hours then would not get cold, even though it sounded like the compressor and everything was working. I unplugged it for a day, got cold for another 6 hours, then everything melted again. I took a chance that it was this thermostat and replaced it with the one here from Amazon. Took me 30 minutes to install it and voila!! Everything is now perfect. The only thing I didn't like was the shrink tubing that came with this part. I used my own and chucked the ones that came with it in the garbage. Still... it is definitely a 5 star part. Buy one if you have these symptoms.
