unlikely the new defrost timer is faulty in this short a time. However this can be checked by just rotating the defrost timer knob manually till it clicks , the ref should then enter a defrost cycle. If it is not defrosting you should see a heavy frost build-up on the evap coils. If this is tested and it passes then there is another problem. If the fans and compressor are running, and the ref seems to run non stop and it is not a defrost problem then that usually indicates a sealed system problem.
