Description
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:

- 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
What's included: One defrost timer assembly. Install notes:
- 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
