Part Number: WP61005254
This defrost thermostat is the temperature limit switch for the evaporator. It lets the defrost heater run when coils are icy and opens as they warm to end the cycle, helping stop frost buildup and restore steady cooling.
- Monitors evaporator temperature; closed when cold to allow the defrost heater to energize
- Opens as the coil warms to terminate defrost and protect components from overheating
- Failure may cause heavy frost on the back wall/evaporator and weak airflow or a warm refrigerator section
- Can also lead to long run times or cooling that returns only briefly after a manual defrost
Includes: One defrost thermostat Install notes:
- Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power before servicing
- Located behind the freezer's rear panel on the evaporator; remove shelves/ice bin and panel to access
- Reinstall in the same position/clip for firm contact with the coil or tubing
- Make secure, insulated wire connections and route wiring away from sharp edges and moving parts
Troubleshooting tip: At room temperature the thermostat should read open (no continuity); when chilled below freezing, it should read closed (continuity).
This part fixes the following symptoms

This is a GE refrigerator defrost heater assembly. The defrost heater assembly is the component responsible for defrosting the freezer compartment.If the refrigerator has been having trouble defrosting or making loud noises when the defrost heater turns on, this part could need a replacement. When this part malfunctions there could be a noticeable increase in ice building up in the freezer compartment. This situation should be fixed quickly because the increasing ice could damage other parts. Start any repairs by unplugging the refrigerator first. Take all the shelves out of the freezer and remove the freezer light shield. Unthread the two screws securing the rear freezer panel inside of the freezer. Detach the clip and remove the panel. The defrost heater should be accessible at this point. This part is located near the bottom of the freezer. Unthread the screws holding it in place and disconnect it from its wiring. Repeat these steps in reverse to install the new appliance.This is a genuine OEM replacement product sourced directly from GE. This heater assembly is only available individually and is not included with other parts.
