    Fully defrost the fridge by turning the whole appliance off for 48 hours with the fridge door open to ensure all ice is cleared. Then remove the evaporator cover and check the heater and cut outs for continuity. It should read between two and three hundred Ohms resistance, but if the reading is higher replace the whole assembly. There are two different heaters depending on production but our part ES1573260 is a compatible replacement for both types.
