It warms the evaporator coil for a short time during each defrost cycle so built-up frost melts and drains away. With no models on file, match 85814398021 or 1439802 to your old heater, or check your fridge's model and product number, before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrost free fridge icing up and warming\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a frost free fridge, moisture in the air freezes onto the evaporator coil behind the freezer panel. Every so often the cooling stops and the defrost heater switches on to clear it. When the heater fails, ice keeps building until air can no longer pass through the coil. The freezer may still feel cold at first, but the fresh food side warms up, the fan may scrape on ice, and you might see thick frost behind the vents. A defrost thermostat, sensor or timer fault can look the same, so test the heater for continuity before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 85814398021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as 1439802\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefrost heater for frost free fridges and freezers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSwapping the defrost heater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the fridge and move food into an esky. Remove the freezer's rear panel to reach the evaporator, and let any ice melt naturally rather than chipping at it, as a pierced coil is an expensive repair.
