Fresh Food Evaporator Components
WARNING:
Sharp edges may be exposed when
servicing. Use caution to avoid injury. Wear Kevlar
gloves or equivalent protection.
Thermal Protector
The fresh food defrost heater circuit is protected
by two 160°F thermal fuses assembled as a
single thermal protector that is pre-wired with 2
connectors. Each side of the heater circuit is fused
to protect from thermal runaway. The thermal
protector clips onto the suction line. It is necessary
to remove the evaporator cover to access the
thermal protector. (See
Fresh Food Evaporator Cover

Defrost Drain Heater
The defrost drain heater is a 4-inch long resistive
heater that is inserted into the drain opening. The
heater is not attached and easily pulls out of the
drain. The wiring is routed on the right side of the
evaporator and connects above the evaporator into
a single connector. It is necessary to remove the
evaporator cover to access the defrost drain heater.
