Whirlpool ATE1552RPP0 Thermistor
In an HVAC system, a thermistor is a special kind of new age resistor that has a varied resistance that is solely dependent on the amount of, or lack thereof, heat. They can tell the system control board when a certain temperature reaches a certain point. The system control board interprets the temperature in certain areas to make sure everything is running smoothly.
Important clues of a defective all-important thermister
- The whole HVAC system could possibly never start because of the broken thermistor
- The blower may fail in its attempt to ramp up to full speed
