Product review (5 stars): Affordable defrost thermostat kit.
I had an issue with my fridge where there was frost build up in the freezer which clogged the return holes from the fridge. I wanted a quick and cheap fix so I didn't have to purchase a new expensive fridge. There was frost build up that blocked the vents and stopped air circulation in my fridge. I did a continuity test before looking to purchase one of these. I got infinite resistance so I went out to look for stores locally to purchase one. They all didn't carry the part or even a generic version of it. Even the fridge hardware store didn't have one which surprised me. I ordered this because it looked very similar to the one I was planning to replace. The manufacturers are the same, the only difference is the operating temperature, I believe it was 30 degrees while my old one was 15. I had no issue installing this, snipped off the old one, stripped a little more off the end and crimped it together using the included crimps. The only thing I didn't understand was the two pieces of white heat shrink that's included. I thought it would shrink over the crimp but after heating it up, it wouldn't shrink more than half it's size. I assume it's to place over the connectors. Product works fine but didn't seem to fix my fridge problem.
