Description:
1. Defrost thermostat PL005 04571 is located inside the freezer compartment either directly mounted to the evaporator or indirectly mounted to the evaporator.
2. The function of Defrost bi-metal thermostat PL005 04571 is to clip onto the evaporator and protect the evaporator from overheating during the defrost cycle.
3. If the temperature of the evaporator exceeds the defrost thermostat setting the defrost heaters are turned off.
4. If you have ice building up in your freezer, or if your freezer is getting too warm during the defrost cycle you may need to replace the bi-metal defrost thermostat.
5. If your refrigerator does not defrost properly you can test both the thermostat and the heater to figure out which part is at fault.

What starts a refrigerator into defrost cycle?
A defrost cycle runs when the heating component attached to the evaporator coil is activated. During the defrost, the coil runs hot to melt accumulated frost and ice, which allows the evaporator to resume its optimal heat absorption and freezer cabinet cooling functions.
