Frigidaire Thermostat 242059602 OEM Part

Frigidaire, recognized for its own label as well as Electrolux, also supplies products for Sears-Kenmore. The defrost bi-metal thermostat is an OEM replacement part specifically crafted for Frigidaire refrigerators and freezers. Positioned within the freezer, it connects to the evaporator coil. Its primary function involves regulating the freezer's temperature and initiating the defrost cycle as required. This component plays a crucial role in preventing the defrost heater from overheating. Once the appropriate temperature is achieved, it signals the conclusion of the defrost cycle, enabling the appliance to continue standard cooling operations.

Moreover, this Frigidaire thermostat is compatible with appliances from Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

This component effectively addresses the following concerns:

- Excessive frost or ice accumulation on the evaporator coil
- Fluctuating temperatures or insufficient cooling in the freezer
- Continuous operation of the refrigerator without pausing
- An unexpected increase in the freezer compartment's warmth
- Accumulation of frost or ice on stored food items in the freezer
- Anomalous or loud noises emanating from the freezer compartment
