It switches the specified part of the defrost or fan-delay circuit in response to operating conditions. Correct identification matters because components that share a general appearance can differ in mounting, electrical characteristics, dimensions or operating function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatch the two-wire control reference and mounting position.
