I bought this unit to replace the one on my Amana Model SRD21VW-P1315501WW. The refridgerator called out for a Defrost Thermostat R0161088 which is the same sensor unit with a large harness and several connectors which cost $34 and required running wires through the back wall of the freezer compartment.

My freezer kept getting stuck in a defrost cycle (ice cubes melt and then freezing back into a big chunk). To test, I cut the old one out of the existing harness, leaving about 4" inches on the thermostat. I then put the T-Stat in ice water to check for continuity and removed it to if it opened at around 40-50 degrees. The thermostat failed so I ordered this one as a replacement. Crimped on male and female connectors to the harness and the new thermostat and voila! My refridgerator was back in business.

Exactly what I needed. Amana fridge was building up frost/ice in the back of the freezer. After melting with a hair dryer, it worked okay for two weeks, then all the ice/frost built up again. The thermostat was not allowing the defrost heater to kick in (once a day) to melt the ice. This thermostat fit the bill and cost way less than calling a repair person. Identical to the original.

A third the price of store in town, worked perfectly. The big repair store in town wanted $50, I think not.

This totally solved my problem as my Amana fridge kept icing up (in the freezer compartment). Quick international shipping to Montreal, Qc without hidden cost.

This was an exact replacement for our Kenmore Refrigerator. (Fridge over Freezer unit) our evaporator coils were severely icing up, because the defrost heater would not come on. The defrost thermostat was defective, not allowing the heater to thaw the ice. This Defrost Thermostat was the answer. A cheap $10 fix.
