Why is my freezer not defrosting?

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

I have a standalone freezer (Whirlpool WSZ57L18DM) that is not defrosting.

- I checked the heating element and found that there is continuity.

- I also checked the thermistor.  It had resistance of 2.3 kohms at room temperature and 5.7 kohms in ice water.

Do those readings sound normal? Is there anything else I should check? What part seems faulty?
