Removing the Defrost Heater
The defrost heater is wrapped around the perimeter of the evaporator. Disconnect the heater wire
connector from the wiring harness.
1. Remove the foam air-block at the upper right corner of the evaporator from around the evaporator
tubing.
2. Remove the two hex head screws securing the evaporator mounting bracket to the back wall of
the freezer liner.
3. Lift the evaporator straight up to unhook it from the lower center hook in the freezer liner.
4. Carefully pull the bottom of the evaporator out just far enough to make the sides accessible for
service.
5. The defrost heater is held in place at six locations around the sides and bottom of the evaporator.
6. Unsnap the defrost heater from the two clips on each side of the evaporator.
7. Bend the two bottom tabs out far enough to release the defrost heater.
