4055699914 Genuine NTC Temperature Sensor for Electrolux Group Appliances, Negative Temperature Coefficient Thermistor Probe

Part 4055699914 is a genuine Electrolux NTC sensor. NTC stands for negative temperature coefficient, a thermistor whose resistance drops as it warms up, which lets the control board read temperature accurately. Electrolux uses sensors like this to monitor water or air temperature in a range of appliances. Our records don't tie 4055699914 to a particular model, so match the number on your old sensor before you order.

What an NTC sensor does and how it fails

Instead of switching on and off like a thermostat, an NTC sensor gives the electronic control a constantly changing resistance that it converts into a temperature. The board then decides when to heat, cool or move to the next step of a cycle. When the sensor drifts or goes open circuit, the appliance can show a fault code, overheat, never reach temperature, or stall partway through a program. Measuring its resistance at a known temperature and comparing it with the service data for your appliance is the reliable way to confirm a faulty sensor.

Checking and fitting the sensor

Unplug the appliance or isolate it at the switchboard before opening any panels. Take a photo of the sensor position and connector so the new one goes back exactly the same way. Where the sensor sits in a grommet or pocket, make sure it seats fully and any seal is intact so nothing can leak. Run a test cycle and watch for fault codes.
