• Advances the refrigerator between cooling and defrost cycles on a timed schedule.
• Stops missed defrosts that can cause frost buildup on the evaporator and reduced cooling efficiency.
• Addresses symptoms such as excessive frost/ice, inconsistent temperatures, or a freezer that runs constantly.
• Acts as the control that engages the defrost heater and returns the unit to cooling when the cycle finishes.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Access the timer via the control panel or rear service area; document wiring or take photos before disconnecting.
• Install the timer in the same orientation and reconnect wires to the original terminals; do not force connectors.

The Door Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This switch plays a crucial role in monitoring the status of the refrigerator door. It detects when the door is open and closed and signals the refrigerator to suspend or resume cooling operations accordingly. 

Causes of a bad door switch can include general wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or impact damage. Please check for proper connection and that the wires are intact before replacing the switch.

Symptoms of a bad door switch include: 

• The refrigerator fails to resume cooling after closing the door
• The inside light fails to turn on when the door is opened
• Abnormal energy usage due to improper door monitoring

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.
