Product review (5 stars): Perfect Replacement -- Info on Replacing Thermostat
About this item: The part received matched the original perfectly. No delivery problems. Functions just as it should, as far as I can tell. Packaging was a little casual, luckily it is not a fragile item.

To other handy-persons wondering if they should replace their fridge's thermostat: We have an older fridge that was cycling on and off erratically. Symptoms could be temporarily relieved by tapping directly on the thermostat housing. Seemed likely that the thermostat was problematic. On replacing the thermostat the erratic cycling was cured but I was surprised to find that other odd behaviors such as compressor-motor noise and excessively long running times have also been cured. Who knew thermostats affected all that (not me!).
