Replace the defrost thermostat clipped to the top of the evaporator AP3884317 If that fails to fix it, replace the motherboard in the back AP4436216

Defrost thermostat seems to have been the problem here. After replacing it I did a close inspection and found a bad solder job on one lead under the rosin cap. I can't see how it could be repaired, only replaced.
So far it seems to be working right.

Thanks for the help.
