Genuine Ge part
By: Ge
Part Number: WR51X10138
This thaw heater is the evaporator defrost heating element that melts frost during the refrigerator's defrost cycle. Replacing a failed heater helps restore normal defrosting and reduce frost buildup that can restrict cooling. What it does:
- Heats the evaporator coil during the defrost cycle to melt accumulated ice
- Prevents excessive frost buildup that can block airflow and reduce cooling efficiency
- Common symptoms of a failing heater: heavy frost or ice on the evaporator/back wall, reduced cooling, or long compressor run times
- Works as part of the appliance's defrost system alongside the defrost thermostat and control
What's included: One thaw heater Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
- Access typically requires removing interior panels and the evaporator cover; handle the evaporator and wiring carefully
- Inspect associated defrost components (thermostat, timer/control) if problems persist; replace only parts confirmed faulty

The fan in the lower draw was not working Michael K. • Trinity , FL • February 16, 2025
I replaced the fan and heater element. The replacement was not an exact match. I had to adjust the parts to get the harness to fit the plug was not the correct size. I cut it off and used the existing plug. Not a big deal and everything else fit. Pretty good for a twenty year old replacement. Also the heater element was a different shape but it fit as is.

Broken harness wire in 2 drawer kitchenaid refrigerator Lewis C. • Cato , NY • November 24, 2014
Original cable and routing was not engineered properly. Cable was on back order for over a month from KitchenAid factory.
Daily use kinked and wore out the wires inside the cable. KitchenAid changed the cable routing and doubled the length of the cable. Instructions were limited and not very clear. The biggest problem was figuring out how to release the drawer slides. And there was very little room to get your hands and arms in behind the drawer.
I hope this was a once in an appliance-life...

Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You
The back wall of my freezer was frozen but working and the bottom or fridge section was not cold Paula S. • St. Louis , MO • July 09, 2017
Well my reliable handyman brother told me he fixed his fridge, as he had same problem. Freezer working but fridge warm. He suggested I order Defrost Heater Kit. I looked it up on your website and found part but noticed Defrost Thermostat as well. So I ordered both. Anyhow he installed the thermostat only. Fridge is cooling. We did not install Defrost Heater Kit. Gonna see if we even need to? So far so good with just the thermostat. We'll be watching to see if back wall freezes up again.
