Swap 12v for 120v Fridge Element? UPDATE 2
EDIT--it turned out you can't swap them--they are not the same and it would fry things if you applied 120v to the 12v element ---------------------- UPDATE 25 Jan--12v is cooling down the freezer....

When I changed my 120 v element I noticed the same thing. I had to spray the element with PB blaster and work it back and forth with a needle nose pliers because the rust was so bad. It eventually came out and I cleaned the hole out with emery cloth before installing the new one. I believe you can remove the 12v element and install the new 120 v element in its place if you can't get the old element out but can't see how a 12v one would work off 120 volts. Do you use the 12v element?
