Description

This heater harness assembly delivers power from the refrigerator wiring to the defrost/evaporator heater, restoring proper defrost cycles and helping prevent frost buildup that can reduce cooling performance. What it does:

• Routes electrical power to the evaporator/defrost heater so scheduled defrost cycles can run.
• Replaces a damaged or burned harness that can cause the heater to not energize.
• Commonly used when frost or ice accumulates on the evaporator, cooling is reduced, or defrost-related errors occur.
• Compatible with refrigerators that use the OEM-style heater connector configuration.

What's included: One heater harness assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Avoid damaging refrigerant lines or other sealed-system components; if the repair requires access to sealed components or involves the refrigerant (R600a/isobutane).
• Inspect mating connectors and wiring for corrosion or damage; replace any compromised components to ensure a reliable connection.
