Freezer Drawer Gasket
This magnetic seal maintains the thermal barrier between the freezer cavity and the kitchen environment. If the gasket is torn, compressed, or misaligned, warm moisture-laden air enters the cabinet via convection. This moisture immediately undergoes deposition upon hitting sub-zero surfaces, creating the visible frost buildup described.

Defrost Thermistor
The thermistor monitors the evaporator temperature and sends resistance signals to the main control board to regulate the defrost cycle duration. If the thermistor drifts out of its calibrated resistance range, the board may fail to trigger the defrost heater, allowing frost to accumulate on the evaporator and eventually spill out into the freezer cavity.

Defrost Heater Assembly
The defrost heater is a Calrod-style element that physically melts frost off the evaporator coils during the defrost stage. If the internal heating filament fails, the frost generated during normal cooling cycles is never cleared, leading to a progressive ice block that restricts airflow and causes external frost formations on the freezer walls.
