Check Defrost thermostat

The defrost thermostat is for monitoring the temperature of evaporator coils. The thermostat contacts close when the coils reach a predetermined temperature, allowing power to flow to the defrost heater during the defrost cycle. During the defrost cycle, the defrost heater melts any ice that has formed on the evaporator coils. If the defrost thermostat is broken, the thermostat contacts will not close. As a result, the defrost heater will not be activated by the thermostat. Check for continuity with a multimeter to verify if the defrost thermostat is broken. If the defrost thermostat does not maintain continuity when it reaches the lowest temperature in its operational range, it should be replaced Whirlpool Refrigerator Problems & Solutions
