• Handle the board by edges and avoid static discharge; wear an ESD strap if available
• Inspect connectors and harnesses for damage and ensure firm, correct connections
• After installation, restore power and run a test cycle to proper operation

This defrost cable connects the ice maker assembly to the refrigerator's defrost system, helping melt frost and maintain proper ice production. Replaces a worn or damaged cable to restore reliable defrost operation. What it does:

• Transfers defrost system signals/power to the ice maker area so frost and ice do not build up
• Helps prevent ice clumping or reduced ice production caused by a faulty cable connection
• Restores proper defrost function when the original cable is cracked, frayed, or broken
• Works with the refrigerator's defrost components to support consistent ice-making performance

• One defrost cable (quantity: 1)

• Recommended for users comfortable with basic appliance repairs; unplug the appliance before servicing
• Handle connectors gently to avoid bending pins or damaging terminals
• Verify correct routing and secure connections per OEM layout to prevent chafing or interference

This defrost thermostat senses evaporator temperature and helps control the freezer's defrost cycle to protect components and maintain proper cooling. It replaces a faulty thermostat to restore reliable defrost operation. What it does:

• Opens or closes based on evaporator temperature to stop the defrost heater when the coil is warm
• Prevents overheating of the defrost heater by stopping current when defrost is complete
• Commonly replaces units that fail to allow timely defrosting or that keep the heater running continuously
• Helps resolve symptoms like persistent frost buildup, warm freezer temps, or frequent compressor cycling

• One defrost thermostat

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing or replacing the thermostat
• Mount and connect the thermostat exactly as the original to ensure correct sensing and proper operation
• Inspect and secure wiring and heater connections; replace damaged clips or fasteners as needed
