Defrost Timers

Refrigerator Defrost Timers

The defrost timer switches your refrigerator between cooling and defrost mode several times a day. When it fails, frost builds up on the evaporator coils and the refrigerator gets warm, or the unit stays stuck in defrost.

Signs of a Bad Defrost Timer

  • Heavy frost on the freezer back wall
  • Fresh food section warm while freezer is cold
  • Compressor never shuts off, or never starts

Popular Replacements

  • GE WR9X309, WR9X409, WR9X313 and WR9X480 series
  • Frigidaire 241705102
  • SPK1401GE and SPG1401GE timers

Choose the Right Timer

Match the cycle rating, such as 8 hours or 10 hours with 30 minutes of defrost, the terminal layout and your refrigerator model number.
