Looking at the exploded parts diagram, the defrost timer appears to be located in the freezer compartment - behind the lighting assembly (on the "Controls Diagram" in the exploded parts view).
Here is the info I found that may help you or others out:

The defrost timer for the unit is located under the fridge in front or back. Depends on model. A few put them inside the fridge. Russ

I understand your frustration. Below are some diagrams and troublshooting aids. If you look at the exploded parts diagram link and select the Wiring Information page, you'll see the defrost timer is on the FF harness, which is the "Fresh Food" compartment.
Next, click in the "Controls" page. Item #12 is the defrost timer. It looks like it is in light assembly / cover in the fresh food compartment as it has 2 light bulbs shown - and the freezer has only 1.
