Hello Solomon, thank you for your inquiry. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the drain hose, part number PS430889, to fix the issue. Glad to be of assistance!

Hi Pamela, thank you for contacting us. The defrost drain can become blocked with food particles or ice, preventing proper drainage during the defrost cycle. The defrost thermostat monitors the temperature of the evaporator coils and signals the defrost heater to activate when necessary. If the defrost thermostat is faulty, it might not trigger the defrost cycle, leading to excessive frost buildup and subsequent leaks when the frost thaws. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. Its part number is PS469510. We hope this sorts out your problem!

Hello Jim, Thanks for your question. Yes, the diffuser gasket is PS430411. I hope this helps.

Hi William, thank you for your question. When you are having temperature problems in your fridge, there are a few parts that could cause the issue. You can use a multi meter to test most of the parts. Make sure you cut power to your appliance before doing any repairs or tests. First you should test your defrost thermostat. Place the thermostat in ice cold water for 2-3 minutes after removing it from your appliance. It should be reading 0 ohms to be working correctly. Another part to check would be your defrost heater. Remove it from the appliance. It should be reading anywhere between 0 - 50 ohms to be working. You could check your temperature sensor. To find the correct reading for this part you will have to refer to your tech sheet that comes with your appliance. You can usually find this tech sheet behind the bottom grille of your fridge on either the right or left side. These are the most common parts that cause this issue in your appliance. So it is suggested you check them first. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
