If it does, replace the timer. If it doesn't, check the heater and defrost thermostat. Turn the timer again till everything starts back up to end the defrost cycle. How to test>Refrigerator Repair Guide: How To Fix a Refrigerator - ACME HOW TO.com Part 23 in diagram 3 is your timer. It's 23A in the parts list.
