Fridge thermostat
Hi,
Out of interest really after trying to fix a failed fridge freezer (turned out to be leaking refridgerant so not an economical repair)...but I suspected the thermostat .... Sooo basically the thermostat is located in the fridge with a dial infront of it with 1-5.. I removed the plastic covering, and the dial and say the stat it had 4 prongs, one which of which had push on connectors going to it but also has a metal tube sorta affair hair wired for want of a better word to it, I guess the pipe that measures the refridgerant temperature ? My question is if it was the thermostat how would you change it if this metal pipe is built into the stat ? Thanks |
