Very useful video. Specially, simple and straight forward, no bull crap like many others do. Thanks

Wonderful video. I changed the capacitor, relay and timer but compressor and fan do not work. So will try this

My freezer is not turning off. Is this thermostat for defrosting the freezer or running the freezer. Are there 2 thermostats?

We followed your instructions to replace the thermostat, which were excellent. While in there we noticed the coils had frost on them. Is this normal? Do we need to let it stay unplugged till the frost melts? or does this mean we need to change the defrost thermostat too?

Have you checked to see of the defrost coil is working fine? You can check if it's good using a multimeter and set it to "Ohms" to see if it has contact
