Answer

Hello Ken,
You need to see if there is any power passed from the defrost timer W10822278 before replacing it. If it is, you may have a harness issue. Note whether the evaporator fan and condenser fan are running. If they are, the timer will not be the issue. If nothing including the fans and compressor are not running, the issue will be the timer or the harness. You can test for 120Vac from the defrost timer on the red wire. If no voltage is there, make sure voltage is getting to the defrost timer on the black wire. If it is but the voltage is not being passed. the timer will be the issue. If voltage is not present at the black wire, the issue will be the thermostat WP2200859.
