Patrick for Model Number RSG257AARS/XAA-0000 I have ice build up every 4-5 weeks now after 10 years of operation. I've swapped out defrost thermostat even though the ohm test and sound test shows continuity. I did not replace the temperate sensor as I see freezer and refrigerator temperature readings decrease after I manually defrost the coils? What else do I need to check and is there a way I can force defrost cycle to test the heating element? My RSG257 generation has heating element and defrost thermostat in series so I had to butt splice per your videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ4YOjGq6MQ
