Review: Worked as replacement for WR9X599 Temperature Control - The temperature control on my 25 year old GE fridge was not working correctly. It would cool to the proper temps, then turn off, and occasionally not come back on. By turning the Temp Control knob on/off and jiggling it, the fridge would come back on. This got worse and worse. The part number for my temp control is WR09X0599 (also WR9X599). This part is not available anywhere. I contacted 5 repair shops and none of them would work on my fridge since the part was no longer available, and they all recommended replacing the fridge. I saw a review from Penny J that seemed to have the same problem, so I ordered this part. Short version ... it worked!! My fridge is now working properly again for $15. I did not have to buy a new fridge (and have my almost fine fridge toss into a landfill). Details on this part: - the packaging was non existent! It had been in a flimsy box inside an envelope, and had come out of the box, so it was basically shipped in an envelope. How it survived that I do not know. - I did have to bend the mounting tabs slightly to line up with the holes where the previous controller was, about 2mm adjustments on both sides - I did have to get 2 screws to fit - the temp probe part is about 4" shorter than my original X599 controller , but it was still enough to go into the freezer area and the temps in the fridge/freezer are perfect - once installed, getting the temp right in the freezer did require some adjustments to the set screw. The large temp control knob makes fine adjustments to the temp. But the small set (preload) screw makes larger adjustments. At first, the freezer temp went to 20 degrees and stopped. The set screw is located right next to where you push the larger temp control knob on. In the end, turning it 1.5 turns counter clockwise got my freezer to zero. - It is working great, zero in freezer, 37 in fridge, all fixed for $15!!
Review: Worked as replacement for WR9X599 Temperature Control for me too. - Have a TFX22PPDAAA fridge probably 15+ years old that started to become warm 2 days before going to vacation. I initially replaced the defrost timer due to some confusion I had trying to understand how it works (some of defrost timers have a resistor in series with the defrost motor and some of them have a capacitor in series with it - so depending on resistor/capacitor they should be tested slightly different). After I replaced it I figured out that Temp Control Thermostat is in series with defrost timer so if thermostat is defective (i.e. remains opened for some reasons) nothing will work. This thermostat is basically a small closed pipe (i.e. the stuff that looks like a wire) filled with some gas that ends up with a membrane inside the big metallic block. When temperature increases the pressure also increases forcing the membrane to push a needle through a spring to push a switch to close the circuit - once the circuit is closed it activates the defrost timer that either enables the compressor to work or (for a very short period) defrost heater to melt the ice that is forming behind the wall in the freezer. So after reading through reviews for WR9X499 (basically I was searching for WR9X599 but GE in his infinite wisdom decided not to produce it anymore) I decided to give it a try - All I had to do is to find 2 different screws, play a little bit with the wings to align the holes to screw them and rotate counter clock wise 1.5 times (when you look closely near the knob you'll see a 1.5 mm in diameter hole with a small screw - this is the one that I think allows you go calibrate it to 0 degrees F) and to push the pipe sensor through the plastic tube to reach the freezer compartment, connect the two wires to it and that was it. The freezer temperature reaches anywhere between -1F to 0F when the temp control thermostat opens and it is working for 2 days now. I could say that "Worked as replacement for WR9X599 Temperature Control" review of "Power Reader" is accurate and I avoided the hassle of buying a new fridge. PS: After I dissembled the old/faulty Thermostat my conclusion was that the switch was still working properly but for some reasons the membrane did not have enough force to push to close the circuit (i.e. remained opened all the time) - I suspect a micro fissure into it forced the enclosed gas to be very slowly released therefore the malfunction.

A: A knob does not come with the thermostat, you have to use the one on the refrigerator.  I just reused the old one off my fridge and i found that the temp. marks on my knob did not line up with the new one you will have to use a sharpie to compensate for the difference.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reviews noting fit issues were correct, but it worked great
*by J***Y on July 28, 2024*

Annoying that the threads in the mounting brackets don’t match originals and the spacing was wrong. Survivable modifications. My refrigerator was sort of working, but not maintaining temperature. You could thump on the thermostat and it would turn on or off. Turning colder and hotter and just manipulating it, could turn it on, but it just never ran long enough or consistently enough before giving this part a shot. This was my issue and beyond the install fit problems it has been maintaining temperature consistently now for many weeks. I never had to tweak the tiny adjustment screw others mention. It couldn’t maintain any safe temp before. May not save this fridge long term, but it fixed what was broken and I’m confident to use it again.
