Remove the rear wall of the freezer section test the defrost thermostat and defrost heater and locate the defrost timer/defrost adapter. I haven't been able to pull up your model. But a defrost problem has to be one of those 3 things. Nat

Double check your model number, I couldn't get it to pull up ad I can give you a little more information. Nat
