Refirgerator works fine for 5-7 days, then gets too warm. Unplugging the unit for 1 minute resets everything and it works fine for another week or so. Thermistor values check out ok, 8 ohms for about 50 degrees.

This has happened 4 times now

I suspect the defroster circuit is sticking on. Is the defroster time built into the control board and how do check it out before ordering parts?


thanks
