Product review (5 stars): Fixed my freezer being too cold
The bottom freezer on my Whirlpool Gold model gb2fhdxwb01 started getting way too cold (-20 degrees), ice cream from it was hard as a rock. Normal freezer temp is supposed to be around 0 degrees. The refrigerator was running at normal temp though. I did a bit of research on the internet and found out it it was most likely the thermistor or the control board. I ordered this replacement thermistor and installed it. I had to shut off the breaker and remove the freezer shelves to access the original thermistor. I found out how to remove the shelves via YouTube videos. When installing the new thermistor It's a bit difficult to splice it to the existing wires just because it's fairly hard to reach in the back of the bottom freezer. Once installed though the freezer temp returned to normal. I'm happy that this $24 replacement part and some YouTube videos saved me an expensive appliance repair visit. Do it yourself!
