Defrost timers are mechanical and adaptive defrost are electronic. Testing is different but the results are the same. If you're experiencing a defrost prob with Maytag replace the defrost control(61005988) 9 out of 10 times the heatr and thermastat are good

Thanks for the info. The number I have for the Defrost control is AP3160614
Are these interchangeable? I tested the Heater and it checked with about 20 ohms, haven't done the thermosat yet.
