International Comfort Products TCH218AKA1 Defrost Sensor Board

The defrost control board is jobbed with determining when to begin an important defrosting cycle in order to get rid of the frost that collects on the outdoor unit. The defrost board depends on a temperature sensor located near the condenser to agree when to initiate the defrosting cycle.

Warnings to watch for in a bad defrost board

Defrosting never initiates even though there is a lot of frost that makes the unit run like crap
The control board could display an error code referring to the failed defrost sequence
AC and heating system could cease to operate because of frost blocking the airflow outside
