Temperature Sensor (Thermistor)
The thermistor is a resistor that changes value based on temperature. Over time, internal oxidation or moisture penetration causes the resistance-to-temperature curve to drift, sending incorrect millivolt signals to the main controller. This leads to the compressor and evaporator fans cycling at inappropriate intervals, causing the cabinet temperature to oscillate outside of the standard 2-degree variance.

Air Damper Control Assembly
The damper acts as a mechanical gate between the freezer and refrigerator sections. If the small plastic drive gears or the motor windings within this assembly fail, the baffle may stick in a partially closed or open position. This prevents the unit from accurately responding to cooling demands, resulting in erratic temperature swings in the fresh food section.

Electronic Control Board
The control board is the logic hub that processes sensor data and actuates power relays. If the onboard capacitors or relays responsible for the compressor start-run sequence begin to fail, the cooling system may experience intermittent power drops or delayed startup. This lag in system response directly causes the internal temperatures to rise significantly before the cooling cycle resumes.
