Turn the timer till it clicks and the unit turns off. Your heater should now be on. If not bypass the defrost thermostat and see if it comes on. If not check the heater. If the heater and thermostat are OK, the timer is bad. How to test> Refrigerator Repair Guide: How To Fix a Refrigerator - ACME HOW TO.com
