Unplug power. Remove bottom toms panel of freezer and freezer back panel inside. To my surprise an entire block of ice top to bottom left to right walls needing a heat gun to melt. So much I had to run a hose from drain to outside. Clipped wires as instructed at the stat and replaced with new defrost stat using 2 small wire nuts. Reinstal l in reverse order and plug power back in. Used a thermometer to check status. Now 34-38 degrees in fridge and -2 to -4 degrees in freezer. All toll about an hour. Easy
