297110400 – Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Thermistor

The 297110400 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Thermistor is an original manufacturer temperature-sensing component designed for select Frigidaire refrigerators and freezers. This genuine OEM thermistor monitors internal temperatures and communicates with the appliance's electronic control system to help maintain accurate cooling performance and food preservation. Available from Appliance Kingdom, this part ships across Canada for homeowners, landlords, and professional appliance repair technicians.

A faulty thermistor can cause inaccurate temperature readings, improper cooling cycles, excessive compressor run times, or temperature fluctuations. Replacing a failed thermistor with a genuine OEM component helps restore proper temperature regulation and reliable refrigerator performance.


What Does the Refrigerator Thermistor Do?

The thermistor is a temperature sensor that continuously monitors conditions inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments. It sends temperature data to the electronic control board, allowing the appliance to adjust compressor operation, fan speeds, and defrost functions as needed.

Because temperature sensing directly affects food safety and appliance efficiency, OEM specifications are critical. A genuine Frigidaire thermistor is engineered to provide accurate resistance values and dependable communication with the control system, helping ensure consistent cooling performance and long-term reliability.

When a thermistor begins to fail, the control board may receive incorrect temperature information, leading to cooling problems and erratic appliance behaviour.


Common Symptoms Indicating Thermistor Replacement

A defective refrigerator thermistor may cause:

  • Refrigerator compartment too warm
  • Refrigerator compartment too cold
  • Freezer section too warm
  • Freezer section too cold
  • Inconsistent internal temperatures
  • Compressor running continuously
  • Excessively long cooling cycles
  • Refrigerator failing to start cooling properly
  • Temperature-related error conditions
  • Food freezing unexpectedly in fresh food compartments

If diagnostics confirm a faulty thermistor, replacing the sensor often restores accurate temperature monitoring and normal cooling operation. However, similar symptoms may also be caused by control boards, wiring issues, fans, or defrost system components. Proper troubleshooting is recommended before replacement.

This part is designed for compatible Frigidaire refrigerator and freezer applications and may also be used in certain Electrolux and Kenmore models where specified by the manufacturer.
