Find the two wires going to the heating element in the chimney. Trace them back to where they connect to either the circuit board or junction point.

With the fridge running in AC mode measure the voltage going to the heating element (from one wire to the other). It should be 120 VAC. If so:

Turn your fridge off and flip the 120 volt breaker to the fridge to OFF.
Lift one lead from where it attaches.
Measure resistance from the lifted wire to the other wire. If the element is goos you will have a low resistance. If burned open, it will be infinite resistance.


If you did not get 120 VAC on the first test you have a 120 VAC supply problem which MAY be the circuit board or a relay, or another problem.
