Joseph G. for Model Number ET18ZKXXW00 I recently purchased and installed a bi-metal thermostat and defrost timer kit because I found water in the freezer compartment and the food was not frozen solid (replaced the evaporator fan also because it was noisy). Since installing these parts the refrig runs continuously. If I manually turn the timer,the refrig will turn off, and then comes back on in an appropriate amount of time. I placed the black motor lead on terminal 2. Is that correct and/or is there another part that controls the temperature to shut off the compressor. Thanks for your help
Answer Hello Joseph, You need to remove the wire from terminal 2 and install it on terminal 1. This will cause the unit to defrost every 8 hours. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Tuesday, February 11, 2014
