I found the problem with my refrig thru your site, Thanks for your help! My question is the defrost thermostat that was in the refrig had a red, and white wire. the replacement has both wires the same color. Does it make a difference which wire goes to the defrost heater. Thanks........Larry

It does not make a difference. The defrost thermostat just completes the circuit or breaks it.
