6500JB2002T - LG Refrigerator Temperature Sensor

This LG Refrigerator Temperature Sensor (6500JB2002T) is a genuine part designed for use with LG refrigerators. It's also known as a thermostat or thermistor, playing a crucial role in maintaining the refrigerator's interior at the desired temperature by measuring ambient temperature accurately.

Operating based on temperature-dependent resistance changes in certain materials, this sensor is strategically positioned within the refrigerator. It connects to a control circuit that monitors resistance changes due to temperature variations, converting these into temperature readings. When the temperature deviates from the set target, the control circuit activates the cooling system, including the compressor and fans, to adjust the interior temperature accordingly. This process ensures that food and perishables are stored at safe temperatures, minimizing spoilage and extending shelf life. To keep this sensor functioning correctly, it's essential to maintain its cleanliness and consider regular calibration or replacement when necessary for optimal refrigerator performance.

If you notice inconsistent temperatures or your refrigerator's cooling system is overactive, it may indicate that the temperature sensor is failing. Please verify your refrigerator's model number for compatibility before purchasing this replacement part.
