Default Kenmore Elite Freezer not defrosting, fridge warm
Model Number: 596.51673100   Brand: Kenmore   Age: 5 - 10 years   

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com
Hello,

Similar to many other users on this subject, my Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator has been warm, and the freezer has been fine for the past 2 weeks. When I remove the back panel of the freezer, the coils are completely frosted over.

Following the great troublehshooting procedures from this site, I have attempted to locate the defrost timer for this unit to test it first. I cannot find it and I am beginning to think this fridge does not have one, or perhaps it's built into the 1. heater-evaporator (PN AP4009926), 2. the thermostat kit (PN AP4247331) or 3. the adaptive defrost board (PN AP4014734).

Is there a way to easily rule out the defrost timer first? I'm not sure which part to buy, but it has to be one of those 3.

Thanks,
bwills
