Parts for Maytag RTC17A / 9E05A: 02 - Freezer Compartment Parts

This evaporator fan motor circulates cold air across the evaporator coils and through the freezer and fresh-food sections to maintain even temperatures. Replacing a failed or noisy motor restores proper airflow and dependable cooling performance.

• Drives the evaporator fan blade to move air over the coils and throughout the cabinet
• Helps maintain consistent temperatures between freezer and refrigerator compartments
• Failure symptoms include weak/no airflow, the fan not running, loud squealing/rumbling, or the fresh-food section warming up
• Poor airflow can also lead to frost or ice buildup on the freezer back panel

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection
• Access the motor behind the freezer's rear panel; use caution around sharp metal and evaporator fins
• Note wire positions; transfer the fan blade and any brackets/grommets from the original motor; secure wiring connections
• Ensure the blade spins freely; engage the door switch when testing and strong airflow after reassembly

This factory screw secures appliance components to their mounting points. Replace missing, worn, or stripped hardware to restore a tight fit, proper alignment, and quieter operation across the affected assembly.

• Fastens panels, brackets, covers, or internal parts to the chassis or frame
• Helps maintain alignment and support, reducing rattle, vibration, or looseness
• Replaces missing or damaged screws that have backed out, broken, or stripped
• Restores secure mounting after service when original hardware is lost

• Disconnect power; shut off water or gas supplies before servicing
• Use the correct driver; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Match length and thread to the original location; do not substitute with longer hardware
• Tighten snugly; do not overtighten into plastic or thin metal

• Flexes slightly for easier ice release to reduce twisting or chipping.
• Replaces cracked, warped, or missing trays that cause leaking or uneven freezing.
• Helps prevent contamination from freezer debris when used as intended.

• Remove old tray and wipe area clean before installing the new tray.
• Fill tray with water on a level surface and place flat in the freezer to freeze.
• Handle carefully when removing ice to avoid spills; do not force with sharp tools.
• Clean tray before first use and as needed; follow refrigerator manufacturer's care guidance.

This clamp secures flexible hoses to fittings to maintain a tight seal and prevent leaks. Use it to replace a worn or loose clamp to stop water or air seepage and restore proper hose attachment. What it does:

• Holds a washer, dryer, or appliance hose firmly to a barb or fitting to prevent slipping
• Helps maintain a watertight or airtight connection to reduce leaks and drips
• Replaces corroded, cracked, or stretched clamps that no longer grip reliably
• Supports normal appliance operation by keeping fluid/air flow contained

• One clamp

• Inspect the hose and fitting; replace the hose if damaged before installing the clamp
• Position clamp over the hose barb and tighten evenly; avoid over-tightening that can cut the hose
• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing any appliance components

This speed clip is a small retainer that slides over a panel edge to provide a captive thread for a screw. Replacing a worn or missing clip restores a tight, rattle-free hold on the attached component. What it does:

• Slides over a panel or bracket to create a captive thread for a mounting screw
• Maintains tension to resist vibration and loosening
• Helps when a screw spins or won't tighten due to a missing retainer
• Addresses loose, rattling, or misaligned panels or trim

• 1 speed clip

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water before servicing
• Note the original clip's location and orientation for correct fit
• Fully seat the clip on the edge; start the screw by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Do not overtighten; ensure the component is secure and noise-free
