This Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) replacement part oversees fundamental functions of the refrigerator. It is responsible for regulating cooling and defrost cycles, ensuring the system operates efficiently. Should the refrigerator experience issues such as failure to start, excessive running, inability to defrost, or temperature irregularities, this control board may provide the necessary solution. It accomplishes this by directing the required voltage to different refrigerator components, sourcing power from the main electrical supply.
