Description

The defrost timer governs the automatic defrost cycle, periodically switching the refrigerator from cooling to defrost. Replacing a failed timer restores reliable defrosting to limit frost buildup and help maintain steady, consistent temperatures. What it does:

• Advances the system through run and defrost periods at set intervals
• Sends power to the defrost heater during defrost, then returns the unit to cooling
• A failed timer may cause heavy frost on the evaporator, poor cooling, or continuous running
• A timer that does not advance or is stuck can leave the refrigerator in defrost or prevent defrost entirely

What's included:

• 1 defrost timer

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access location varies by model
• Photograph wire positions; move wires one at a time to the matching terminals on the new timer
• Transfer any mounting bracket, secure the timer, and restore power to verify operation
