Nat,
So should I go ahead and change the defrost timer or it could just be stuck temporarily.

Also, Should I change the fan motor ? Please let me know.

If the defrost timer stuck chances are it will continue to stick in that place. I would go ahead and replace that and the fan motor too. Neither of the parts are very expensive.

Nat,
Sure.

One more favour. Do you know how can I get parts ASAP ? If I order from your website how soon I can get it. My main priority is the fan motor for now.

Please let me know.

I think they ship from here pretty fast..... I'm not affiliated with the company. I just volunteer information to help people out. We own our own appliance repair company is Missouri.
You could check a local service company they might have them in stock.

Nat,
I finally fixed it. I bought 3 parts the defrost timer, evaporator fan motor and Defrost thermostat just in case.

But I changed only the Evaporator fan motor and let it run for few days. I see that defrost and cooling cycle happens and both freezer and fresh food section cools nicely.

So just the Evaporator fan motor did the job. That was the solution you gave me.

I could not have fixed it without your help. I will go and return other two parts :-)

Thanks for all the help.
