Whirlpool ATE1253CPP0 Defrost Sensor Board
The defrost sensor board instructs the system to activate the defrosting phase which may be needed in order to continue normal heating and cooling operations. The board relies on a specific sensor located in the outdoor unit to determine when the defrost cycle should begin.
Major warnings your outdoor defrost sensor board will not live much longer
- The defrost sequence never kicks in especially when there is a rather large amount of frost on the external unit
- Most systems will stop running due in part to way too much frost build-up
- The control board may throw an error code if the defrost control board fails

If you are not sure about the installation of the new defrost sensor board on your own then it would be in your best interest to contact a professional to do the replacement of the part.
