Defrost Thermistor
This sensor monitors the temperature of the evaporator coils to signal the start and end of the defrost cycle. When it drifts out of its calibrated resistance range, the control board fails to activate the defrost heater, allowing frost to accumulate until it becomes a solid block of ice that prevents heat exchange.

Evaporator Fan Motor
Once ice builds up sufficiently on the evaporator, it physically enters the fan shroud. The mechanical resistance causes the fan motor to seize or suffer a winding failure, halting the forced convection required to move chilled air into the food compartments, causing the internal temperature to rise despite the compressor running.

Defrost Heater Assembly
The defrost heater is the resistive element responsible for melting frost during the defrost cycle. If the heater's circuit is open due to a filament break, no ice will be removed, leading to a total airflow blockage at the evaporator within 48 to 72 hours of operation.
