Frigidaire Defrost Timer, Adaptive Defrost Control

The Defrost Timer is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is an essential electronic component that controls the automated defrost cycle of the refrigerator. The defrost timer monitors run times and temperatures to determine when to initiate the defrost process. It allows the refrigerator to operate efficiently by preventing excessive ice buildup. This defrost timer is designed to run for 30 minutes every 8 hours. 

Symptoms of a bad defrost timer include: 

• Inability to initiate or maintain the defrost cycle 
• Excessive ice buildup in the freezer compartment
• Erratic temperature fluctuations
• The refrigerator running excessively or displaying other performance issues

Causes of a bad defrost timer can be normal wear and tear over time. Environmental factors like power surges or fluctuations may also impact the electronic timer functionality. 

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

The Whirlpool Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. The defrost timer regulates the automatic defrost cycle, which prevents ice buildup on the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment by sending a signal to the defrost heater to turn on and melt any ice buildup on the coils. 

Causes of a bad defrost timer can include mechanical wear over time, electrical failures, or internal component damage. Prolonged usage and voltage spikes can also affect the timer's functionality.

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Timer include:

• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer compartment
• The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperatures
• Unusual noises coming from the appliance 
• The appliance running continuously without cycling off

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire upright freezers. It serves as a crucial component responsible for regulating automatic defrost cycles.

Causes of a faulty defrost timer relate to 20,000+ hours of constant exposure to freezer temperatures as low as -10 degrees Fahrenheit. Such extremes can compromise electrical switching mechanisms over prolonged usage periods.

Symptoms of a failed defrost timer include:

• Inability to initiate automatic defrost modes  
• Excessive ice and frost accumulation inside cabinet
• Warm areas detected due to impaired fan circulation
• Diagnostic codes indicating defrosting problems

This genuine Frigidaire replacement part is compatible with Kelvinator and some Kenmore units as well.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is a crucial component that controls the defrost cycle, ensuring proper and efficient defrosting of the freezer compartment.

Symptoms of a bad defrost timer:

• Excessive ice buildup in the freezer compartment
• Freezer not maintaining the desired temperature
• Water leaks or moisture accumulation due to improper defrosting
• Refrigerator running constantly or cycling too frequently

Causes of a defective defrost timer can include mechanical wear and tear, electrical malfunctions, or simply reaching the end of its lifespan due to regular use.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore refrigerator models.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. Located within the control housing inside the fresh food section, it controls the defrost cycles to clear frost from the evaporator coils.

Causes of timer malfunction include: cracking/fatigue of plastics from extended usage; breakdown of delicate electronic components over many years of operation; and failures inhibiting regulated defrost intervals.

Symptoms of a failed defrost timer include:

• Refrigerator fails to automatically initiate scheduled defrost periods
• Frost/ice builds up excessively on evaporator coils obstructing airflow
• Erratic refrigerator temperatures as heat exchange degrades
• Refrigerator stuck in the defrost cycle
• Compressor is not running

This Frigidaire OEM replacement part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and some Kenmore ranges.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It regulates the automatic defrost cycle of the freezer, preventing the buildup of frost and ice on the evaporator coils.

A bad defrost timer can be caused by electrical issues, component failure, or malfunctioning mechanisms. When the timer becomes faulty, it can result in issues such as excessive frost buildup, poor cooling performance, or a constantly running compressor.

Symptoms of a bad defrost timer include:

• Frost or ice accumulation in the freezer
• Inadequate cooling in the refrigerator 
• Constantly running compressor 

Replace your faulty defrost timer with this genuine OEM Frigidaire part to restore your refrigerator. This Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.
 

The Defrost Control Board is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. This board manages the defrost cycle by controlling the activation of the defrost heater and the monitoring of the freezer's temperature. 

Over time, the defrost control board can fail due to electrical issues, wear from continuous use, or damage from power surges. 

Symptoms of a bad defrost control board include:

• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer compartment
• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• The defrost heater not activating
• Frequent cycling on and off of the refrigerator

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

8hr 21min, universal timer

This electronic control assembly governs the oven's functions and user interface, restoring reliable cycle selection, temperature control, and display feedback for compatible Frigidaire ranges and wall ovens. What it does:

• Replaces a failed oven control board to restore accurate temperature regulation and bake/ broil cycle control.
• Fixes symptoms like unresponsive control panel, incorrect oven cycles, or a blank/erratic display.
• Manages timed functions, broil/bake relay switching, and on-board diagnostics used by the appliance.
• Works with the existing keypad, wiring harness, and door/latch assemblies when those parts are functioning.

• One control assembly (electronic oven control)

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before starting any work.
• Handle the board and connectors carefully to avoid electrostatic discharge or damage to components.
• Verify harness connections and mounting orientation before securing the assembly.

This rotary defrost timer controls the refrigerator's switch between cooling and defrost cycles to help prevent frost buildup and maintain proper cooling performance. It replaces a failed or intermittent defrost timer to restore automatic defrost operation. What it does:

• Advances the refrigerator between cooling and defrost modes on a timed cycle
• Ensures the defrost heater runs at scheduled intervals to melt frost and ice
• Commonly replaces timers that fail to advance, stop, or cause continuous cooling
• Helps address symptoms like excessive frost, warm compartments, or continuous compressor run

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Access and mounting vary by model;
• Verify electrical connections and timer orientation match original before reassembly
• Consider replacing with an exact OEM part number for fit and function
