I fitted this to a Beco fridge and there is perfect temperature control again. Make sure you strip back the sleeving on the capillary to the same length as the original and use the correct pins, connections on internet.

Bought to replace a faulty open circuit stat on my parents fridge freezer. This one controlled at too low a temperature, even on the warmest setting so Mum got her cucumber tips frozen. It was cheap so not the end of the world. Perhaps our fridge had a specific stat but generally a VT9 is for plate evaporators so it should have worked.When I enquired about this the seller insisted on an appliance rating label which it didn't have, just model and serial so after realising no appliance rating, no more help, I quit farting about and bought the original part instead which worked fine.Cucumber sarnies are back up to standard you will be glad to hear.

Bought same one on ebay, got a 30 year old LEC fridge working again, ok its an old fridge not worth much, but for the sake of a few quid and an hour of my time ive saved having to buy a new fridge and as im on low income thats made me rather pleased.
