Here are the most common causes for Admiral Refrigerator GB2526LEKS "Freezer too cold"

99% of the time Thermistor Kit

Refrigerator was warm the freezer was ok.

First, researched the problem. Decided it was the thermistor and ordered it from AppliancePartsPros - it arrived in 2 days

Inconsistent temperatures in freezer and refrigerator compartments.

Attempted to fix it by replacing the thermistor in the freezing compartment. The freezer is still staying colder than we'd prefer (hard ice-cream), but refrigerator is staying consistent at the proper temperature.

The freezer gets too cold.

Installation of the new thermistor was super easy with the video instructions. Even a single mom can do it. :

Refrigerator compartment too cold

Refrigerator compartment was slowly dipping below 32 degrees and then freezing food. Replaced the thermistor in the refrigerator compartment with the help of the online video. Piece of cake. Within a couple of hours the thermostat was at 40 degrees, and has held constant. At one point the fridge did get into the the 30's - but I set the freezer temp to 4 degrees (instead of zero) and all is still well. This probably means that I will need to replace the freezer thermistor as well, but after my success in replacing the fridge thermistor, I am almost looking forward to it.

Maytag fridge staying too cold freezing food

I googled the make & model number of the fridge & the problem. Appliance Parts Pros was the 1st listing to appear. It said the Thermistor needed to be replaced, had the correct part & a with video on how to replace it. After a couple more weeks of ruined food I decided to take a chance & order the part. It arrived the next day. I watched the video again, followed the instructions & replaced the thermistor, it took about ten minutes. That was two weeks ago. The temperature is now around 34 degree's, it had been 25, & no freezing vegetables! Thanks Appliance Parts Pros!

The Thermistor Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators and freezers. This component plays a role in monitoring and controlling the temperature within your appliance. A thermistor is a type of resistor whose resistance changes with temperature changes, allowing the refrigerator's control system to accurately maintain the desired cooling levels based on the readings it provides.

Causes of a bad thermistor can include wear and tear from constant use, exposure to extreme temperatures that can damage the component, or electrical issues such as short circuits.

Symptoms of a bad Thermistor Kit include:

The refrigerator or freezer is too cold or not cold enough
The appliance cycles on and off more frequently or for longer periods than normal
Unexplained changes in temperature settings

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
