Freezer Door Gasket
The gasket acts as the primary thermal barrier; if the magnetic strip or vinyl is compromised, warm, moisture-laden air enters the freezer. This moisture undergoes desublimation, turning directly from a gas to a solid (frost) upon contact with sub-zero surfaces. Replacing the gasket restores the airtight seal and prevents the continuous introduction of latent heat and humidity.

Defrost Bi-Metal Thermostat
This component monitors the evaporator temperature and acts as a switch for the defrost heater. If the internal contacts fail to close at the calibrated temperature, the defrost heater will never receive power, causing the evaporator coils to choke with frost and eventually spread to the freezer interior. Replacing this sensor ensures the control board can successfully initiate the melt-off phase of the defrost cycle.

Defrost Heater Assembly
The defrost heater is a resistive element designed to provide the thermal energy necessary to liquefy accumulated frost on the evaporator fins. If the element burns out (creating an open circuit), the frost will continue to accumulate without being periodically cleared. A new heater restores the ability of the system to manage moisture removal during the scripted defrost sequences.
