On the Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel side it is listed for the RX628DX1, RX628DW1 and RX611DUX1, and on the Haier side for the HSBS628AS, HSBS628AW and HSBS610IS. If thick frost keeps coming back on the freezer's rear wall, this heater is one of the first parts worth testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFreezer icing up? Signs the defrost heater has failed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrost-free fridges cool by blowing air across an evaporator coil hidden behind the freezer's back panel. Moisture freezes onto that coil, so every so often the control stops cooling and powers the defrost heater to melt the ice, which then runs away down the drain. When the heater fails, the ice never clears. Airflow slowly chokes off, frost spreads across the back of the freezer, and the fresh food section warms up even though the compressor keeps running. A heater that shows no continuity on a multimeter has failed, although a faulty defrost sensor or control can cause similar symptoms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel and Haier part number H0064000843A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefrost heater that melts frost from the evaporator coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel RX628DX1, RX628DW1 and RX611DUX1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for Haier HSBS628AS, HSBS628AW and HSBS610IS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing the defrost heater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch the fridge off at the wall and unplug it, then empty the freezer. The heater sits behind the internal back panel, so shelves and panel screws have to come out to reach it. If the coil is iced over, let it thaw naturally rather than chipping at it, as a pierced evaporator tube means a sealed system repair. Photograph the wiring and clip positions before removing the old heater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow can I tell it is the defrost heater and not another part?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTest the heater with a multimeter. An open circuit reading means it has failed. If it reads normally, the defrost sensor or the control board may be the cause, so check those before ordering a new heater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere do I find my fridge's model number?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFisher \u0026amp; Paykel and Haier fridges have a rating label inside the fresh food compartment, often on a side wall near the crisper.
