The defrost control board monitors outdoor coil conditions and initiates timed defrost cycles to melt frost buildup from the evaporator coil — a critical function in heat pump operation during cold weather. When this board fails, you'll typically see continuous frost or ice accumulation on the outdoor unit, the system failing to enter defrost mode, reduced heating efficiency, or the unit locking out entirely.
