Frigidaire 216446900 Handle OEM Part

I determined that it was a problem that occurred during the defrost cycle by resetting the GFCI outlet and forwarding the defrost timer until the defroster came on. Once the defrosting began, the GFCI outlet would reliably trip. I took apart the shielding inside of the freezer and tested the defrosting without the heating element or the thermostat connected. Since that looked good, I tested for proper functionality of the thermostat by removing it, placing it in a working freezer, and checking for continuity when cold and no continuity when at room temperature. Since that looked good, I assumed the problem was with the heating element. Upon replacing the heating element, it ran well. Replacing the handle and installing the feet took little effort.

Removed two screws, cleaned the area around handle area, replaced handle.

Ordered handle and handle insert. These were a perfect match and this project was easy to repair.

I removed the broken parts and replaced it with the part and it's new again .

Called and ordered the part and it arrived a few days later and my Grandson took the screw driver and part out of my hands and said he would do it. He did - end of story. I really was afraid that I couldn't find the part because of the age of the appliance. It was made easy by your representative. She was very great. Thanks
