Parts for Ge RSG20IBMDFWW: 08 - Fresh Food Shelves Parts

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators, designed to accurately monitor and relay the temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments to the electronic control board. By detecting the slightest changes in internal temperature, the sensor allows the control board to make real-time adjustments to the cooling system, activating the compressor and fans as needed to maintain optimal conditions for food preservation.

Over time, the temperature sensor can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or general wear and tear. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to improper temperature regulation, affecting the efficiency of the refrigerator and the freshness of stored food.

Symptoms of a bad Temperature Sensor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperature 
• The appliance running continuously or more frequently than normal
• Inaccurate temperature readings displayed  

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

This refrigerator crisper drawer (vegetable pan) is the produce bin that slides into the fresh food section. Replacing a cracked or missing bin restores organized storage and smooth drawer operation for your fruits and vegetables.

• Holds produce in the crisper compartment and contains minor spills
• Slides on the refrigerator's drawer rails for easy access
• Helps support the crisper system when used with the cover and settings
• Common symptoms: cracked or broken bin, won't slide smoothly, falls off track, missing drawer

• Empty the compartment and remove the old bin straight out; release stops if present
• Clean and inspect drawer rails before installing the new bin
• Align the bin with the tracks and slide in until fully seated
• Handle plastic carefully; do not force into place

This front pan cover gasket seals the refrigerator's drain pan cover to help keep water and debris contained, reducing odors and preventing leaks under the appliance. It replaces a worn or cracked gasket for a cleaner, more reliable seal. What it does:

• Seals the front edge of the evaporator/drip pan cover to help direct condensate into the drain channel
• Helps prevent water from leaking or pooling beneath the refrigerator
• Reduces the chance of debris and odors collecting around the drain pan area
• Commonly replaced when the existing gasket is cracked, loose, or no longer seats properly

• Install with the refrigerator unplugged or power turned off to avoid electrical hazard
• Remove the pan cover, clean mating surfaces, and press the gasket into the channel until fully seated
• Inspect the pan cover and surrounding components for damage; replace any cracked parts
• No special tools required for most models; use care to avoid pinching or stretching the gasket

The Slide Bearing is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This small but crucial component is typically located on the rails of refrigerator drawers, allowing them to slide in and out smoothly without sticking or jamming. The slide bearing helps reduce friction between the drawer and the frame, protecting the refrigerator's structure from wear and tear while ensuring a quieter, more efficient operation. 

Symptoms of a failing slide bearing include:

• Drawers becoming difficult to open or close
• Squeaking noises during drawer movement
• Increased resistance or jerking when pulling out the refrigerator drawers

Causes of slide bearing deterioration typically involve accumulation of food particles or debris, general wear from frequent use, or inadequate lubrication leading to increased friction and eventual wear out.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This slide rail is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. The slide rail measures 1.25 inches in height, 2 inches in width, and 16 inches in depth.  This durable and reliable slide rail ensures smooth and effortless drawer operation. 

Causes of failure involve repeated impact stresses absorbing the weight of the heavy door opening and closing potentially thousands of daily times over 10-20 years. 

Symptoms of a faulty slide assembly include:

• Difficulty fully opening or closing the oven door  
• Binding, jamming or misalignment of door movement
• Visible bending or warping of metal slide track components
• Loose fasteners connecting assembly to cabinetry 

This OEM replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint and RCA electric ranges as well.

NOTE: For the right-hand side order WR72X240. For the slide bearing order WR1X2048.

The Slide Assembly RH is an OEM replacement part for GE side-by-side refrigerators. As a replaceable sub-assembly, it restores smooth extension of plastic vegetable/multi-purpose slides on the right interior. The slide measures approximately 16 inches.

Symptoms of a bad slide assembly include: 

• Drawers failing to fully extend or retract inward  
• Difficulty using bins and storage sections 
• Noisy operation of problematic slides
• Stress concentration leading to cracks along slides

Causes stem from extended use gradually degrading nylon rollers and wear strips through inevitable friction. Exposure to excessive weights above slide limits may also bend or warp steel support rails quicker.

This genuine GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models.

The Left Hand Slide Assembly is an OEM component for GE bottom-mount refrigerators. It sits on the left side and smoothly guides the refrigerator shelf inserts in and out. This slide measures Approx 10 inches x 1 3/8 inch x 1 5/16 inch.

Symptoms of a faulty slide assembly include:

• Shelves difficult to fully extend or retract
• Grinding or rubbing noises from the shelf area 
• Visible signs of wear to plastic rollers and tracks

Causes relate to typical wear and tear over time under regular use. Improper loading of shelves can also potentially damage slide machinery.

For the right hand side order WR72X242. For the slide bearing order WR1X2048.

This GE replacement restores smooth shelf functionality, compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models as well.
