George for Model Number ED22TEXHW01 Hi! I've replaced my defrost timer (483212) on my Whirlpool, and seems to work just fine! Put the jumper on the correct pin as with my old timer. My issue is that every few days, my coils freeze over and stop the fan from spinning that blows cool air into the fridge. When I advance the defrost timer using the dial, it clicks into the defrost mode, and I can see/feel heat from the heating element. I've also checked the defrost thermostat with a multimeter, and I am seeing continuity. I've also cleaned the coils underneath the fridge as well. However, it seems like my freezer is just getting too cold still or is not defrosting enough. I replaced the timer with the same timer as I had before, which worked great for 10 years, but now I'm seeing this issue with the coils not defrosting every few days now. Any ideas why this could be?
Answer George, This issue sounds likely that the timer received is sticking and not allowing the unit to into the defrost cycle and would need to replace the timer. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, July 5, 2017
