Product details

Frost free fridges from the Westinghouse, Kelvinator, Simpson and Electrolux stable use this genuine defrost timer, part 4055612008. It's an Invensys timer set to an 8 hour cycle with a 7 minute drip time, and it's also known as 1448728K. Listed models include the Westinghouse N360, N410 and N520 series, Kelvinator KTM and KBM, Simpson STM and SBM, and Electrolux ETM, EBM and ERM fridges.

Defrost timer faults in frost free fridges

On an 8 hour cycle, the timer switches the compressor off and powers the defrost heater so ice melts off the evaporator coil. After the heater cycle there's a short drip period, letting meltwater run away before cooling starts again. A timer that sticks in the cooling position lets ice pack the coil until air can't flow, so the freezer frosts up and the fresh food section turns warm. One that sticks in defrost leaves the whole fridge silent and warming. Many timers have a slot you can turn by hand to force a cycle, which helps prove which way it has failed.

Replacing the defrost timer

Unplug the fridge at the wall first. Take a clear photo of the timer terminals and wire colours before pulling any connector, as the wiring order matters. Transfer the wires to the same terminals on the new timer, refit it in its bracket and power up. Allow a full day of running before deciding whether the defrost problem is solved.

Questions about this part

My fridge is frosted up, is it always the timer?

Not always. A heavy ice build-up can also come from a failed defrost heater or defrost thermostat. Advance the timer by hand into defrost and check whether the heater warms up. If it does, the heater circuit is working and the timer becomes the prime suspect.
