control panel
The temp control,light, and defrost control are all neatly tucked together into one package in the fresh food compartment. Remove the 2 screws holding the console and it will drop down exposing the the defrost timer. If your serial number starts with a 10 then you have an adaptive defrost control which is probably 50 bucks. I would make sure the heater and defrost thermostat are working first. More than likely it is the heater. They are made of glass 20 inch's long and do fail quite often. While you are at it you need to replace the defrost terminator thats the small disk that attaches to the the glass tube and shuts it down when the temperature gets warm enough to melt the frost.
