Doing an internet search got me to a few sites selling the replacement part of ZEN63-10710. I'm trying to find a place local to Hollywood, CA as the part 4.80 and the shipping is another 6.00. Kind of pricey.
Stay away from eBay - the same thermistor (a workman equivalent) is $24.95 But shipping is FREE.....

Encompass (formerly TriTronics) had my degauss thermistor about a year ago for 7 dollars, plus shipping, don't recall how much, but UPS is expensive these days. Mind you, Encompass is the worst for shipping time -about four days after ordering, they notified me it was being shipped. I figured I was a small fish compared to the repair shops buying their projection lamps and HDTV boards.

Cheers,
