Quick check — and when it's not DIY
One thing you can rule out on your own: check how often the door's been left open or ajar recently, since that's the single biggest cause of humid air getting in. Also, check the door seal for gaps and make sure vents inside aren't blocked — the most common self-fixable cause. If it's still acting up after that, a genuinely failed defrost heater or timer needs the interior panel off to test and replace, and misdiagnosing it means paying for parts that weren't the problem.
