Whirlpool ATE0743BPP0 Defrost Sensor Board
The defrost sensor control board is jobbed with determining when to begin the defrost sequence in order to rid your unit of frost that can build up. The control board is influenced by a specific sensor that can be found near the condenser, in order to determine when to begin.
Cues of an unhealthy defrost board
- Defrosting does not begin especially when there is a rather large amount of frost that makes the unit run like crap
- The HVAC system could stop running due to the fact of the safety issue that the frost poses
- The main control board might issue an error number referring to a failing defrost control board
