Causes of failure may include a malfunction due to wear and tear over time, electrical failure, or damage from moisture and ice.  

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Bimetal include:

• The refrigerator is constantly running without cycling off
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils, leading to reduced cooling efficiency
• The refrigerator or freezer compartment is too warm
• Unusual fluctuations in refrigerator temperature

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
