How to Fix

  1. 1

    Check door gasket for damage. If damaged, replace the door gasket.

  2. 2

    Measure heater resistance at CON9 pins 7-13. Expected: 105~117 ohm. If out of range, change Fuse-M.

  3. 3

    Check Defrost Sensor resistance at CON4 pins 20-19. Should be 22k ohm at room temp; if OFF replace defrost sensor.
