6500JB1001H - LG Refrigerator Temperature Sensor

This Refrigerator Temperature Sensor (6500JB1001H) is a genuine part crafted by LG for use in LG refrigerators. Playing a pivotal role in maintaining the desired temperature within the fridge's compartments, this part, also known as a thermostat or thermistor, utilizes temperature-dependent resistance changes. Positioned strategically within the refrigerator, it measures the ambient temperature accurately and is connected to a control circuit. This circuit monitors and interprets the sensor's resistance fluctuations due to temperature changes, triggering the refrigerator's cooling system to adjust as needed. Precise temperature regulation ensures stored food and perishables remain at safe temperatures, minimizing spoilage. To maintain this accuracy, keeping the sensor clean and ensuring its proper functionality is vital. Symptoms indicating a failing or broken part include inconsistent temperatures, spoiled food despite correct settings, and the refrigerator running too frequently or not enough. Before purchasing, customers should verify their device's model number for compatibility.
