This "frost-free" freezer isn't. Replaced the defrost element. Still ices up - have to manually defrost about every 6 weeks. I have a new defrost timer, but can't find it on this machine. I thought at first blocked vents, so made sure they weren't blocked (built little 'fences' around the openings from vinyl garden fencing), but that wasn't the problem. PS, I will never, ever, own another one of these machines. :mad:

It is outside the freezer compartment on the back lower left support (when looking at the back of the freezer). It is secured with 2 sheet metal screws with a 1/4 hex head. The manual override dial is visible through a punched hole in that support. Just remove the 2 screws, disconnect the electrical connector. Then reverse the procedure to install the new timer.

Thank you. I was kind of afraid it would be back there - I'd pretty much exhausted the other possibilities. Getting the machine turned around is going to be a challenge. Would have been nice if they'd put it in the same bracket as the thermostat - now there would be a novel idea ;-)
