The defrost heater melts frost off the evaporator coil during the automatic defrost cycle so cold air can circulate freely. Replacing a failed heater helps clear recurring ice buildup and restores stable refrigerator and freezer temperatures.

• Heats the evaporator to remove frost/ice during the defrost cycle
• Prevents airflow blockages to maintain consistent cooling
• Common symptoms: heavy frost behind the rear panel, fan noise from ice contact, weak cooling or warm spots, ice returning soon after manual defrost
• When the heater is open/burned out, frost accumulates on the coil and restricts airflow

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Safely defrost any heavy ice; do not chip at coils to avoid fin or tubing damage
• Route and secure wiring as original; reuse existing clips/brackets as required and keep leads clear of the fan
• After reassembly, ensure panels seal properly and the defrost drain path is clear for meltwater
