The thermistor is wired in the damper control, so instead of replacing it, just replace the thermistor. Get it's part # in the sticky above and info on it's resistance at room temperature so you can test it.

Richappy - got the thermistor and took apart the damper. This looks like a sealed unit where the coiled sensor feeds into a bellows of some kind that expands to drive a probe to push a switch (cooling on/off?).

I do not see how to replace the sensor with the new style thermistor. Is that possible, or is my appliance too old? Do I need to order the full damper unit?

So there is no thermistor in the damper package. If so, you will need to study the breakdown diagrams to find it.
