Symptoms of a bad Defrost Heater include:

• Frost build-up on the evaporator coils, leading to reduced cooling efficiency.
• The freezer or refrigerator compartment is too warm.
• The appliance is constantly running in an attempt to maintain the set temperature.
• Pools of water or ice on the floor of the freezer compartment due to incomplete defrosting.
