    C. Thermistors Thermistors (semiconductors) are used for cabinet temperature control and defrost termination. The resistance varies depending on temperature. No adjustment is required. If necessary, check for resistance between thermistor leads and visually check the thermistor mounting. 1. Cabinet Thermistor (SEN1: white and black leads) This temperature reading can be identified by looking at the temperature shown on the display.
