Introduzione
Use this guide to replace the refrigerator thermistor or temperature sensor in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.
The refrigerator thermistor measures the air temperature in your refrigerator and signals temperature regulatory processes. If your refrigerator doesn't cool properly, your refrigerator thermistor might be broken.
To replace the freezer thermistor, follow this guide instead.
This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators. This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
