I have a GE/Hotpoint side by side fridge/freezer, model # GSS22QGPACC,
serial #MF229923. Both the freezer and fridge were a little warm
(25F, 50F respectively) with all the fans working so I checked the
coils and sure enough they were totally frozen over. I've defrosted
the coils and now I want to check that the defrost timer isn't stuck
in the off position. The problem is, I can't find the defrost timer!
I checked under the unit in the back and under the temperature control
panel on the food side, but I didn't see what I was looking for (a
button looking thing with a slot for me to turn it with a flat head
screwdriver).

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

If you see a removable panel, probably secured by 4 screws, on the
refrigerator's back at the lower right-hand corner (viewed from the
rear) then that would be a good place to start looking. This would be
behind the lower freezer section.
