If you can just let the whole unit warm up enough to basically start
fresh,
it won't matter if the defrost is working or not. It will have been
defrosted
by being turned off, warmed up. When you restart it, if it still doesn't
cool,
then you know it's not a defrost issue, be it the timer, heater or
whatever.


unless the defrost cycle is stuck on?



On the older units with mechanical defrost timer,
"stuck in defrost" would also turn off both fans
and turn off the compressor. Electronic? Never
know how they work.
