• A failed heater can cause long run times and temperature swings
• Replace if the element tests open/short or shows visible damage

• Disconnect power before service; allow components to warm to reduce risk of cracking brittle plastics
• Remove shelves and the evaporator cover; carefully defrost ice—do not chip or pry against the fins
• Transfer original clips/insulators if present; route wires as original and make firm electrical connections
• After reassembly, ensure the drain area is clear and the fan spins freely
