00232022 OEM Thermostat, Aftermarket Replacement Thermostat Built to Factory Specification, Match by Part Number

00232022 is an OEM thermostat, made by an aftermarket supplier to the original equipment specification rather than by the appliance brand. The appliance and brand aren't recorded against this number, so it's a part to buy by matching. Compare 00232022 with any number on your old thermostat, along with the temperature markings, the bulb or probe style and the terminal layout. If they line up, this is your replacement.

Signs an appliance thermostat has failed

A thermostat senses temperature and switches the heating circuit on and off to hold a set point. When it fails, the symptoms depend on how it fails. Contacts that weld shut leave the heat on, so the appliance runs far too hot or trips its safety cut-out. Contacts that stay open mean no heat at all. A thermostat that has drifted out of calibration gives temperatures well above or below the setting, which shows up as burnt or undercooked food. A multimeter test across the terminals confirms the fault before you replace it.

Part details

• OEM thermostat, part number 00232022
• Aftermarket part made to original equipment specification
• Not made by the appliance brand

Fitting the thermostat

Disconnect power at the wall or isolating switch before opening any panel, and have hard-wired appliances serviced by a licensed electrician. Photograph the terminal connections before removing a wire. If the thermostat has a capillary, feed the new one along the same route without kinking it and clip the bulb exactly where the old one sat. Test the appliance through a full heating cycle afterwards.
