Parts for Ge TBX12SNSARAD: 03 - Section3 Parts

The Evaporator Fan Blade is an OEM component for GE freezers and bottom-mount refrigerator designs. Located inside the freezer compartment, this fan blade spins to circulate cold air evenly throughout the storage space.

Causes of a faulty evaporator fan blade include natural fatigue from running year-round. Freezers exposed to humid environments may experience faster corrosion.

Symptoms include: 

• Abnormal sounds like knocking or clunking from inside the walls  
• cold spots developing in certain freezer areas
• Higher power bills from inefficient temperature regulation
• Frost or ice patches forming on evaporator coils

This part is also compatible with some brands like Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore.

Open - 60, close - 40

This insert evaporator housing secures the evaporator coil and channels cold airflow inside the freezer compartment, helping the cooling system operate efficiently and preventing ice buildup in the liner. What it does:

• Holds and protects the evaporator coil and related components inside the freezer cavity
• Directs airflow over the coil to maintain consistent cooling
• Helps contain defrost water and route it to the drain pan
• Can reduce frost build-up when the cooling system and defrost cycle are working properly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electric shock
• Remove interior panels and the evaporator assembly per manufacturer instructions; support the coil when disconnecting components
• Inspect and replace any brittle seals, fasteners, or insulation while the unit is open
• Allow the evaporator to fully defrost before reassembly

This power cord assembly supplies electrical power from the wall outlet to your refrigerator. Replace a cut, frayed, or overheated cord to restore safe, reliable operation and eliminate intermittent power loss caused by a damaged cord. What it does:

• Provides the electrical connection between the household outlet and the refrigerator's wiring
• Helps resolve no-power or intermittent power when the cord is moved
• Addresses visible damage such as cuts, cracks, fraying, or a melted/discolored plug
• Mitigates arcing, sparking, or a burning odor originating from the cord or plug area

• One power cord assembly

• Disconnect power by unplugging the unit or switching off the circuit breaker before servicing
• Pull the refrigerator forward for access; note the original cord routing and connections
• Install the new cord along the same path and secure any built-in strain relief; ensure the ground connection is properly seated
• Restore power and verify operation

This PTC start relay mounts on the refrigerator compressor and briefly energizes the start winding, then automatically opens as it warms. Replacing a weak relay helps restore reliable compressor starts and consistent cooling. What it does:

• Provides momentary power to the compressor's start winding at startup; the PTC element opens as it heats
• Helps ensure smooth compressor starts and reduces repeated start attempts
• Signs of a failed start device can include no cooling because the compressor won't run
• Clicking or buzzing from the compressor area every few minutes
• Compressor starts intermittently or stops shortly after starting

• Includes: 1 PTC start relay

• Disconnect power and pull the refrigerator forward to access the rear service area
• Remove the rear panel to reach the compressor compartment
• Unplug the wire harness and pull the old relay straight off the compressor terminals; note its orientation
• Push the new relay fully onto the compressor prongs, reconnect the harness, reinstall the panel, and restore power

A replacement motor start/run capacitor that helps restore reliable motor starting and smooth operation for compressors and fans. Installing the correct capacitor can reduce hard-starts, humming and intermittent motor operation. What it does:

• Provides the temporary boost motors need to start and stabilize while running.
• Helps compressors and fan motors start more easily and run more efficiently.
• Commonly associated with symptoms like humming, motors that won't start, intermittent operation, or reduced cooling performance.
• Prevents repeated motor stress that can lead to overload trips or premature motor wear.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components.
• Discharge the capacitor and tag/photograph wire locations before removal to ensure correct reinstallation.
• Replace with the exact OEM part or an approved equivalent; do not bend or puncture the capacitor can.
