My understanding is that thermistors are a sort of heat-responsive resistor. It starts out with high resistance to prevent current inrush on power up, and quickly drops to basically 0 as the set warms up. It's a protection thing, but you should be safe to eliminate it for now.
You could literally use alligator clips on either side or solder a wire to bypass it for the time being. I'd recommend replacing it if it's bad, though.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not nearly as experienced as some people here.
