• Frost or ice patches forming on evaporator coils

This part is also compatible with some brands like Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore.

This defrost thermostat monitors evaporator temperature and controls power to the defrost heater, shutting it off at the correct point in the cycle. Replacing a failed thermostat helps clear frost and restore stable cooling and airflow.

• Senses evaporator coil temperature in the freezer
• Closes when cold to allow the defrost heater to run; opens as the coil warms to terminate defrost
• Helps prevent excessive frost buildup and maintains proper airflow
• Typical failure signs: heavy frost on the evaporator/back wall, weak airflow, warm fresh-food section, unit runs constantly or never defrosts

• Disconnect power and wear appropriate safety gloves before servicing
• Access the evaporator behind the rear freezer panel; note wire routing and original mounting on the refrigerant tubing
• Install the new thermostat in the same location with firm thermal contact; do not damage coil fins or tubing
• If your model uses spliced leads, use approved connectors and secure all joints; replace all covers before restoring power
