Fresh food compartment fails to reach set temperature; compressor may run but not cool adequately.
Items in the refrigerator compartment freeze even when control is set near the Off position; compressor does not cycle off.
Compressor runs continuously without cycling, causing temperatures to drop well below the desired set-point (e.g., 15–20°F in the fresh food side).
Refrigerator alternates between too cold and too warm; capillary bulb is out of calibration and cannot reliably detect set-point temperature.
💡 Pro Tip: Diagnosing a Faulty Cold Control Thermostat
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Fresh food compartment is too warm regardless of dial setting
⚠️ Refrigerator freezes food, water, or beverages even at low settings
⚠️ Compressor runs continuously and never shuts off
⚠️ Dial set near "Off" position is the only way to avoid freezing fresh food
Quick test: Momentarily jumper the two cold control terminals together. If temperatures improve significantly, the WR9X499 cold control is confirmed faulty and needs replacement. Always disconnect power before performing any electrical tests.
