Freezer Freezing up and blocking the vent for refrigerator, not cooling the fridge.

Went pretty straight forward, except the heat shrink tubing was about 2 sizes too big. Would not shrink small enough to seal the connections. Even with a heat gun it would not shrink small enough. OH, another think is when I plugged the fridge back in the defrost timer was in defrost mode. Took me a few minutes to figure that out and use a screwdriver to turn the timer back to the on position. Other than that, install was pretty simple.

Parts Used:

Defrost Thermostat

Defrost Timer - 120V 60Hz
