Defrost Heater Assembly or Wiring
The fan and/or compressor running excessively and cycling constantly, despite temperatures holding, is a classic symptom of an iced-up evaporator. Since the control board, thermistor, and thermostat have already been replaced, the defrost heater or its wiring is the most probable remaining point of failure in the defrost system. A common issue is the heater's lead backing out of its harness connector, preventing proper defrost cycles and leading to ice buildup.

Evaporator Fan Motor
If the evaporator is iced, the evaporator fan motor could be struggling to turn, hitting ice, or cycling due to obstruction, directly matching the user's observation of the 'defrost fan' cycling constantly. Even without ice, a failing evaporator fan motor could lead to poor air circulation, causing the compressor to run longer and cycle more frequently to maintain temperatures.

Condenser Fan Motor
A failing condenser fan motor would prevent proper heat dissipation from the condenser coils, causing the compressor to overheat and cycle more frequently or run for extended periods to maintain the set temperatures. While the user cleaned the coils, the fan motor itself may be weak or failing.
