Quick check — and when it's not DIY
One thing you can rule out on your own: check the door seal for gaps and make sure vents inside aren't blocked — the most common self-fixable cause. If that doesn't fix it, 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.
