For Ge Refrigerator Defrost Heater Kit (Part Number: OEM13066410)

Not Again for Model Number RCA MSX22GR

It looks like the defroster heating elements are burned out again. The original part has these numbers: G.E. 16209308G001 BURCLIFF 9/12/95, a while back I got a replacement for this from you folks, that recently burned out again. Since I now have two defroster wiring harnesses, will the: Defrost Heater Kit Part Number: AP4355467 Made by: GE Our Price $31.95 replace the my bad parts? Also, is there a way to test the thermostat to be sure one of them is still good? Thanks!

1 Answer

You can test the thermostat for continuity. It should read closed when frozen. You will need to order WR49X391 for the unit.

Hello Kelly. The heater kit your installing is incorrect. You need to order WR51X442 for the correct heater for your model.

Wayne, The part number [AP271437] is the current replacement part and do not show any other heater that would replace it.

Charles D for Model Number GE TA14SAB

I have an old GE refrigerator that I manually defrost ever since getting it. I used a defroster that I plugged into an electric outlet, it heated up and I stuck it in the freezer to aid the defrosting process. The defroster lasted over 20 years but finally gave away. I am looking all over for one of these defrosters but can't find any. I know I can put a pot of boiling hot water in the freezer or use a hair dryer on medium to defrost but the defroster I had worked so well. I knew not to put it against anything in the freezer since it could warp plastic etc. Do you know anywhere at all where I could purchase a defroster like the one I used for over 20 years? Sincerely, Charles Dale

Charles, Unfortunately we do not have any information on a defroster that would work in place of the one that you previously used for defrosting this unit.

Hello K.D.S., This is a engineering update for the unit to correct an issue where the unit was not completely defrosting. It is easy to install. Both wires will need to be routed down the one side where the two terminals are on the new heater assembly. The additional piece of wire is included to extend the one wire if it is too short but is seldom needed. Just release the harness from the retainer and pull the harness down and one wire will reach in a diagonal configuration. You will just need to make sure the wire does not get pinched by passing too closely to the area where the screws go in that retain the rear wall, (evaporator cover).

Ron R for Model Number GSL22JFPCBS

Freezer side froze up with frost. Refrigerator side wasn't cold. Repairman replaced defective defrost element. Went from a single element to a double element. Now the ice tray ice melts about 50% of the ice during defrost cycle and the water accumulates in the bottom tray and freezes. He came back and replace the circuit board. So far $516.00. Decided to try myself and found this web site. Any suggestions? I suspect the sensor now. Your video repairs are sweet. Plus I could have saved about $140 in parts mark up.

1 Answer

Ron, The temperature sensor WR55X10942C would be the most likely cause for the unit to stick in the defrost cycle for too long of a period. You would want to replace this sensor.
