215846604 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Defrost Timer
The 215846604 is a genuine Frigidaire OEM defrost timer, mounted inside the refrigerator near the top of the back wall. This timer is the scheduler for the defrost circuit: on a set cycle, it switches the refrigerator out of normal cooling mode and into a defrost mode, energizing the defrost heater long enough to melt any frost that has accumulated on the evaporator coil, then switches back to cooling once defrost is complete. This cycle repeats automatically for as long as the refrigerator runs, which is why a healthy timer is essential to preventing frost buildup in the first place.
Rated 120V with a 6 hour, 21 minute cycle, measuring approximately 1.5"H x 3.2"L x 2.3"W. When this timer fails, the defrost heater never gets the signal — and the electrical energy — it needs to run, so frost keeps accumulating on the coil unchecked. A failing timer typically shows up as heavy frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coil, a freezer that runs too cold or too warm, or a refrigerator section that isn't cooling properly because ice-caked coils can't transfer heat efficiently anymore. It directly replaces AP2592907, 08003824, 08011620, 1748201, 241809401, 241809402, 442754, 5300541134, 5300800692, 5308003824, AH423802, EA423802, PS423802, and CC304.
Quick Answer
The 215846604 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Defrost Timer fixes Frigidaire, Kenmore, Crosley, Kelvinator, Gibson, Tappan, and Westinghouse refrigerators and freezers with heavy frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coil, a freezer running too warm or too cold, or a refrigerator section not cooling properly. 120V, 6 hour 21 minute defrost cycle. Replaces AP2592907, 08003824, 08011620, 1748201, 241809401, 241809402, 442754, 5300541134, 5300800692, 5308003824, AH423802, EA423802, PS423802, CC304. Before replacing, test the defrost thermostat and defrost heater with a multimeter — if both test good, the timer is the most likely faulty component.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Locate the defrost timer control inside the refrigerator, typically near the top of the back wall — on some models it may be located behind a rear access panel or near the control housing instead, so check your specific model if it isn't immediately visible. Photograph the wiring harness connector before disconnecting anything. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws securing the timer in place, then carefully disconnect the wiring harness from the back of the old timer. Connect the wiring harness to the new 215846604 timer, matching the original connector orientation, and secure it in place with the mounting screws. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator over the next day to confirm the defrost cycle is running on schedule and frost is no longer accumulating excessively on the coil. Tools needed: screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the timer is actually the problem and not the defrost heater or thermostat?
The defrost timer, defrost heater, and defrost thermostat all work together in the same circuit, so it's worth testing the other two before assuming the timer has failed. Test the defrost thermostat and the defrost heater with a multimeter — if both test as functioning properly, it's very likely the timer is the faulty component causing the defrost cycle not to run.
There's heavy frost or ice on the coil. Is that definitely the timer?
It's one of the most common causes. If the timer fails to advance into the defrost portion of its cycle, the heater never gets the signal or the power it needs to run, so frost keeps accumulating on the evaporator coil with nothing to melt it off. This is exactly the scenario this timer is designed to prevent when it's working correctly.
What's the difference between 215846604 and 215846602?
These are different timers with different cycle lengths — this 215846604 runs a 6 hour, 21 minute cycle, while 215846602 runs a 6 hour, 40 minute cycle and replaces a separate group of part numbers. They are not interchangeable, so always confirm which specific number your refrigerator's parts diagram calls for before ordering.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original cycle timing, switch contacts, and wiring harness configuration of the defrost timer originally installed in your refrigerator.

XPARTCO 242046001 Refrigerator Defrost Thermostat
The XPARTCO 242046001 is an aftermarket replacement defrost termination thermostat compatible with a wide range of Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Tappan, Westinghouse, White-Westinghouse, and Kenmore refrigerators — including French door, side-by-side, and bottom-freezer models across the CFD, DGHF, E23BC, and EI23BC series. The defrost thermostat is a bi-metal safety device clipped to the evaporator coil or defrost heater tube in the freezer compartment. During the defrost cycle, it monitors the coil temperature and opens its circuit once the coil warms to roughly 50–60°F (10–15°C), which cuts power to the defrost heater. This confirms all the ice has melted and prevents the heater from continuing to run and overheating the freezer.
When the thermostat fails, one of two things happens: it can fail open (the defrost heater never runs, so ice builds up on the coils until airflow is blocked and cooling fails), or it can fail closed (the heater runs too long, overheating the compartment and often producing water pooling at the bottom of the freezer or leaking onto the floor). Features a cylindrical metallic body with two blue wires and white electrical connectors. Specification code L47-22F. Wire leads approximately 7.9". It directly replaces 242046001, 240386402, 240386403, AP4508400, 1564839, AH2378768, EA2378768, PS2378768, and L47-22F. Tip: the defrost thermostat, defrost heater, and defrost timer/control board form the defrost system and often fail together — replacing them as a set while the panel is off saves a repeat repair. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 242046001 Refrigerator Defrost Thermostat fixes Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Kenmore, Tappan, and Westinghouse refrigerators with excessive frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coils, fridge or freezer too warm (or too cold), the defrost cycle not activating, the refrigerator running continuously, or water pooling/leaking in the freezer. Bi-metal defrost termination thermostat — opens around 50–60°F to shut off the defrost heater. Cylindrical metal body, 2 blue wires, white connectors. Replaces 240386402, 240386403, AP4508400, 1564839, AH2378768, EA2378768, PS2378768, L47-22F. Often replaced together with the defrost heater and defrost timer.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Excessive frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coils — defrost heater never running because the thermostat failed open

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator and Move Perishable Food Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator from the electrical outlet and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The defrost thermostat is located in the freezer compartment behind the rear evaporator access panel. Remove all freezer shelves, drawers, and the ice maker (if equipped) to clear access to the back wall. If there's heavy ice buildup covering the coils, allow the freezer to thaw completely before continuing — never chip or pry ice off the evaporator coils, as the aluminum fins damage easily and a damaged coil is a far more expensive repair. Remove the screws securing the rear evaporator access panel and carefully detach it to expose the evaporator coils, defrost heater, and defrost thermostat. Locate the thermostat — it's the small cylindrical metal component clipped onto the evaporator coil or the defrost heater tube, with two blue wires. Photograph the wiring connections and mounting position before disconnecting. Carefully disconnect the electrical connectors from the old thermostat, noting their orientation. Release the mounting clip and remove the old thermostat. Clip the new 242046001 thermostat onto the coil or heater tube in the exact same position — good thermal contact with the coil is essential for the thermostat to sense the temperature correctly. Reconnect the electrical connectors. While the panel is open, inspect the defrost heater and defrost timer/control board — if either is damaged or you're chasing a defrost problem, this is the ideal time to replace them too. Reinstall the rear access panel, shelves, drawers, and ice maker. Plug the refrigerator back in and allow several hours for the unit to return to its set temperature. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a defrost thermostat actually do?
It's the "off switch" for your refrigerator's defrost heater. Frost naturally accumulates on the evaporator coils during normal cooling. Periodically, the defrost timer/control board turns on the defrost heater to melt that frost. The defrost thermostat — a bi-metal switch clipped right to the coil — monitors the coil's temperature during this cycle. When the coil warms to approximately 47°F (its L47-22F rating — indicating all the ice has melted), the thermostat opens its circuit and cuts power to the heater. This stops the heater before it overheats the freezer compartment, and saves energy. Without a working thermostat, the defrost cycle either never runs (ice builds up) or runs too long (overheating and water pooling).
I found water pooling in my freezer — is the defrost thermostat the cause?
Quite possibly. A defrost thermostat that fails closed (stuck in the "on" position) lets the defrost heater run far longer than it should. The excess heat melts more than just the frost on the coils, producing more water than the drain can handle — which pools at the bottom of the freezer and can leak onto the floor. This is a commonly misdiagnosed symptom: many people assume they have a water line leak when the actual culprit is a failed defrost thermostat. If you're seeing unexplained water in the freezer or on the floor and there's no obvious water line issue, check the defrost thermostat. Also verify the defrost drain isn't clogged, which produces similar symptoms.
How do I test the defrost thermostat?
With the refrigerator unplugged, disconnect the thermostat's wire connectors and set your multimeter to continuity mode. A working defrost thermostat should show continuity when it's cold (below its opening temperature — which it will be if it's been in the freezer). If it reads open (no continuity) while cold, the thermostat has failed and needs replacement. For a more thorough test, place the thermostat in ice water (should show continuity), then warm it above its ~47°F opening point (should open — no continuity). If it doesn't switch at the correct temperatures, replace it. Another visual check: if the top of the thermostat has popped up or bulged, that's a sign it has failed.
Should I replace the defrost heater and timer at the same time?
Yes, it's strongly recommended. The defrost thermostat, defrost heater, and defrost timer/control board work together as a system — the timer initiates the defrost cycle, the heater melts the frost, and the thermostat terminates the cycle when the coil is clear. When one component fails, the others have typically experienced the same age and thermal stress, and a near-term failure of another defrost component is common. Since the rear access panel is already off and all three components are right there next to each other, replacing them together in a single session prevents a repeat repair down the road.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Frigidaire/Electrolux OEM part, but is manufactured to match the L47-22F specification (opening at approximately 47°F), bi-metal switching function, cylindrical body, two-blue-wire connector configuration, and tube-mount clip of the original 242046001 defrost termination thermostat used in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Tappan, Westinghouse, and Kenmore refrigerators.

WR60X25858 Freezer Genuine OEM Evaporator Fan Motor
The WR60X25858 is a genuine GE OEM freezer evaporator fan motor for GE refrigerators, and also fits select Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, Café, Profile, and Kenmore models. Located in the freezer compartment, this motor circulates air across the evaporator coil and out into the freezer and, on many models, the fresh food compartment, drawing heat out of the air to maintain consistent, efficient cooling throughout the appliance.
Rated 13.6V DC, 0.23 amps, with fan dimensions of approximately 4.5" x 4.5" and a wiring harness and plug extending about 8.25" from the frame. Common causes of failure include worn motor bearings or electrical failure over time. Symptoms of a failing evaporator fan motor include the freezer failing to cool properly and warming up, insufficient airflow, excessive frost buildup, higher-than-normal freezer temperatures, or unusual noise — often caused by frost or ice rubbing against the fan blade as it turns. It directly replaces 239D1371P002, 3033253, 4931166, U11P14MS7AA3-57A61, WR60X10340, AGE29632, AP6891698, EAP12727431, EAP7320382, PD00054264, PS12727431.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Clear Any Frost Or Ice From The Fan Area Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves. Locate the evaporator fan motor in the freezer compartment, typically behind an interior panel covering the evaporator coil assembly. If there's noticeable frost or ice buildup around the fan or coil, allow it to fully defrost before continuing — restricted airflow from ice is a common contributor to fan motor strain and noise. Remove the panel to access the fan motor, then disconnect the wiring harness from the old motor. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the old motor and pull it free, along with the fan blade if it doesn't transfer separately. Install the new WR60X25858 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness fully, and secure the mounting hardware. Reinstall the interior panel. While you're in this area, vacuuming out any accessible condenser coils is a good complementary maintenance step. Restore power and monitor the freezer's temperature over the next 24 hours to confirm normal, quiet operation and consistent cooling. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My freezer isn't cold anymore. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is one of the most common causes of a freezer that won't cool. One customer specifically reached out after their freezer wasn't cold, watched a diagnostic video explaining the evaporator fan's role, and confirmed this motor was the cause before ordering the replacement.
I hear a strange noise from inside my freezer. Could this be the fan motor?
Yes, this is a well-documented symptom. Noise often occurs when the fan motor itself is wearing out, or when frost or ice has built up enough to rub against the spinning fan blade. Clearing any ice buildup before replacing the motor helps you confirm whether the noise was from ice contact or the motor itself.
Should I do anything else while I have the freezer open for this repair?
It's a good opportunity to check for and clear any frost or ice buildup around the fan and coil area, since restricted airflow can contribute to fan strain. One customer also vacuumed out the condenser coils during the same repair, which is a reasonable companion maintenance step while everything is accessible.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original motor design, voltage, and connection type of the evaporator fan motor originally installed in your refrigerator.
