I did not see anything behind there that looked like a timer or had any kind of knob to turn. LOL. Could the timer be on the inside?


Your model doesn't have an old school defrost timer. The automatic defrost system is controlled by an electronic main control board rather than a traditional mechanical defrost timer. The freezer's main board regularly triggers a defrost cycle to melt frost buildup off the evaporator coils.

I would test the defrost heating element first. It's beneath the coil in this pic you posted and looks like this.



Unplug the freezer and disconnect the heater's wire leads.Using a multimeter set to resistance (ohms), test the circuit across the heater. A healthy heater typically reads between 35 and 12,000 ohms depending on the exact design.If the reading is open (infinity) or heavily outside these ranges, the heater is burned out and requires replacement.

If heater tests good test the thermostat

Test the Defrost Thermostat (Bimetal)The defrost thermostat monitors the temperature of the evaporator coils. It must be frozen (below roughly 32° F) to close its contacts and allow power to go to the heater. With the coils cold, test the bimetal thermostat for continuity using a multimeter. If it does not show continuity when cold, it is faulty and needs to be replaced.

If both the thermostat and the defrost heater test good, The main control board is likely failing to send the signal to start the defrost cycle.

Is it like the cell phone deals where it says up to $500 for your trade in & they tell you your trade in is only worth $25 :lol:

Im concerned that this is the issue. It takes it a while before it freezes up. Months


It's freezing up because a stuck/faulty defrost timer isn't telling the freezer to go into defrost mode every 6-10 hours like it should.

Try replacing the defrost timer. Parts is about $20 & it was easy to replace on my fridgedaire freezer. Two screws & plug in the new defrost timer.

You didn't say what my truck is. If it's a F150 it's aluminum so rust won't be a problem.

Why do you feel the need to take a break blocking major intersections?


An incident occurred when a freight train stopped blocking the Crosstown intersection on Main Street in Tupelo MS so the engineer could run into Burger King and grab a snack. The rail company officially apologized to the city of Tupelo for this unscheduled fast-food detour.

The plant is about 1/2 way between Columbus & Starkville. Starkville is the better living location if he gets the job.

If however, it is federally funded….they need to feel some harsh budget cuts,


The Waterway Village Pedestrian Bridge in Gulf Shores is primarily funded through a $7.9 million federal BUILD Grant (Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development) awarded by the U.S. Department of Transportation. This grant was part of a larger $14.4 million federal award that also financed the widening of Highway 59, with the bridge construction being a mandatory condition of that funding agreement.
