Common Sunbeam chest freezer replacement parts

  • Control panel. The freezer control panel turns on or off freezer functions such as power, vacation mode and the ice maker.
  • Drain hose adapter. The drain hose adapter provides a connector to attach a drain hose to the freezer.
  • Thermistor. The thermistor is a temperature sensor within the freezer that sends information to the electronic control board.
  • Temperature control thermostat. The temperature control thermostat is mounted in the control housing area and controls the temperature inside the freezer. It turns the compressor on and off as needed to maintain the set temperature in the freezer. The thermostat has a temperature sensor tube that detects the actual temperature in the freezer compartment and controls the temperature based on the reading from that sensor.
  • Overload/PTC relay. The overload/PTC relay starts the compressor motor. It has 2 components: an overload protector that trips when the compressor motor overheats or locks up, and a relay. The relay manages the start-up of the compressor and keeps the compressor running until the compressor cycles off.

Troubleshooting your Sunbeam chest freezer when interior lights don't work

If your interior lights don't turn on when you open the freezer lid and you already replaced the light bulb, then the lid switch may have failed. Unplug the freezer and test the lid switch with a multimeter. Replace the lid switch if it failed.

Some chest freezers use LED's to light the interior compartment. If an LED light board doesn't light up when activated, replace the light board.

Faulty lighting system wiring also prevents interior lights from working. Replace or repair any damaged wiring in the lighting system.
