Cecotec Defrost System Partial Failure

Ice buildup on the back wall of the freezer or around the evaporator cover.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Weak defrost heater, Defrost thermostat opening too early, Poor door seal allowing moist air in, Frequent door openings

Safety: Unplug the refrigerator before defrosting or testing components.

Manual defrost: Remove food, unplug the unit, and leave doors open until all ice melts. Use towels to catch water.
Check door gaskets: Inspect for tears or gaps and replace if necessary.
Test defrost components: After defrosting, test the heater and thermostat for continuity with a multimeter. Replace any faulty Cecotec defrost parts.
Monitor: If ice returns quickly, the main control board may not be initiating defrost cycles correctly and may need replacement.
