Defrost heater signs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a frost-free fridge, a fan blows air over a cold evaporator coil tucked behind an inner panel. Frost forms on the coil as it works, so the control regularly stops cooling and switches on this heater to clear it. A heater that has burnt out leaves the frost to grow until air can no longer pass through the coil. The result is a cabinet that gets steadily warmer, a fan that sounds muffled or scrapes on ice, and frost visible around the vents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Westinghouse part 85814452307\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e450W double pass defrost heater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as 1445230 and 1441001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits Westinghouse WRM3700, WRM4300, RP372V and RP432V models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso fits Electrolux ERM3700, ERM3701, ERM3707 and ERM4300 models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e450W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDouble pass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging the defrost element\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the fridge off at the wall and empty the shelves.
