Description: The appliance part referenced by the code 316217002 is the refrigerator defrost thermostat, a critical component that regulates the defrost cycle in refrigerators and freezers. The defrost thermostat continuously monitors the temperature of the evaporator coil to ensure that it does not get too cold during the cooling process. When the coil reaches a specific temperature, the thermostat signals the defrost heater to turn on and melt any frost or ice buildup on the coil. This cycle helps prevent excessive ice formation, ensuring optimal cooling efficiency and proper airflow inside the appliance.
