True 958731 Blue LAE Defrost Temperature Probe

True 958731 Blue LAE Defrost Temperature Probe

The True 958731 blue lae defrost temperature probe is a commercial replacement part identified by the manufacturer reference shown below. It provides a temperature input to the compatible refrigeration controller. Correct identification matters because components that share a general appearance can differ in mounting, electrical characteristics, dimensions or operating function.

Confirm the replacement relationship to 930280 for the exact equipment revision. Probe color does not establish sensor resistance characteristics or connector compatibility.

Use the equipment model, serial number and existing part identification together when selecting this refrigeration temperature probe. The listed specifications describe the researched reference; they do not establish universal compatibility across True equipment. Inspect the related system before ordering so a separate wiring, alignment, airflow or drainage problem is not mistaken for failure of this component.

Function & Application

This refrigeration temperature probe provides a temperature input to the compatible refrigeration controller. Its role should be checked against the equipment parts diagram and service documentation, including any production changes affecting the assembly.

Compatibility & Ordering Reference

Reference-catalogue equipment examples: TGU-2, TAC-27K, STM1F-1S. These examples are not an exhaustive fit list. Confirm the complete model and serial number before ordering.

Do not assume that another part number supersedes this reference unless the equipment manufacturer documents that replacement for the specific unit.

Symptoms to Investigate

Reasons to inspect this component include an implausible temperature reading, a probe fault, intermittent input or visible cable damage. These symptoms are diagnostic clues, not proof that this part has failed.

Technician Diagnostic Checks

• Check connector fit and corrosion
• Inspect the full lead for pinching or abrasion
• Verify probe location and controller input assignment
• Compare sensor response with manufacturer specifications and a reference temperature

Document the findings before replacing parts. Use the equipment service procedure and correct test equipment; component appearance alone does not establish a service diagnosis.

Before You Order

• Confirm manufacturer reference 958731 and the complete equipment model and serial number.
• Compare the existing part with the listed specifications and mounting arrangement.
• Confirm the replacement relationship to 930280 for the exact equipment revision. Probe color does not establish sensor resistance characteristics or connector compatibility.
• Verify whether related fasteners, fittings, keys, sensors or other service items are included or required separately.
• Confirm the supplied item and its provenance before releasing the order.

Installation & Return-to-Service Checks

Service should be performed by personnel qualified for the equipment and component. Isolate relevant power and support moving parts before disassembly. Record the original mounting, connections and routing, then follow the equipment-specific service procedure.

Secure the probe in its specified location and verify stable, plausible readings. Confirm that related control faults clear and the cabinet cycles normally.

Maintenance & Related Components

During routine service, inspect the surrounding mounting points and the related components identified in the diagnostic checks. Correct the cause of wear, moisture, vibration or misalignment before fitting a replacement. Use cleaning and maintenance methods specified for the equipment and materials.
