Thank you for the thoughtful reply... I am betting I have a defective "adaptive Defrost" board... I checked the eveporator and it had a solid blob of ice on the top hapl and on the freezer "frost detector" I measured ~1 ohm when cold and 10 meg ohm when warm ... so I'm thinking it still works. waddia think? I am a nasa nerd so no need to spoon feed the working of a Volt ohm meter, I own a Fluke DVM, so I'm good there. thanks again.
