Product details
Frost-free Westinghouse and Electrolux fridges that keep icing up may need a new defrost heater, and 50291939002 is the genuine one for this group of models. It also goes by 1449675 and 1448992. On file are the Westinghouse WSE6070SA and WSE6070WA, the WSE6100SA and WSE7000SE, and Electrolux ESE6077SA, ESE6107SA and ESE6108WA, plus ERE6100SV and ERE6100SX models. If the freezer coil keeps icing over and the fridge side is creeping warmer, this is one of the first parts to test.
Signs the defrost heater in your fridge has failed
Behind the freezer's back panel sits the evaporator, the cold coil that chills the air. Moisture freezes onto it constantly, so the fridge periodically switches this heater on to melt the frost away and send the water to the drain. A dead heater means the frost never clears. Within days the coil blocks with ice, air stops reaching the fresh food section and temperatures climb there first. Telltale signs are a solid white wall of ice behind the vents, water or ice in the bottom of the freezer, and a fan rattling against frost.

Testing and fitting the heater
Unplug the fridge and move freezer food into coolers. Take out the shelves and the panel covering the evaporator, then let built-up ice melt with the door open or a fan blowing in. Test the old heater with a multimeter, since an open circuit confirms the fault. Note how it is clipped and wired, fit the new one in the same position and refit the cover before plugging the fridge back in.
Questions about this part
Could something else cause the same icing problem?
Yes. A faulty defrost thermostat, a failed control board or a blocked drain can all leave the evaporator iced up. Testing the heater for continuity is a quick way to confirm it is the culprit before you order.
