Common Symptoms

  • Frost or ice buildup
  • Freezer or refrigerator not defrosting

Check Before Replacing

  • With power disconnected, a multimeter continuity check of the defrost thermostat can help assess it; Repair Clinic states that lack of continuity indicates replacement is appropriate.
  • Inspect for frost accumulation on the evaporator coils, which can occur when a defective defrost thermostat prevents the defrost heater from operating.

Pro Tip

Confirm the appliance model number before ordering because this thermostat fits both refrigerator and freezer applications across multiple Frigidaire-family brands.
