This fan scroll is the molded blower housing that directs airflow from the appliance fan for efficient cooling and ventilation. Replacing a damaged scroll restores proper air path and reduces airflow noise or performance issues. What it does

• Channels air coming off the fan to the condenser/evaporator or vent area for effective heat exchange
• Holds and aligns the fan wheel and motor to maintain correct clearances and quiet operation
• Worn, cracked or broken scrolls can cause increased fan noise or reduced airflow
• Proper airflow helps the appliance maintain intended operating temperatures

• One fan scroll

• Disconnect power before servicing; follow basic electrical safety
• Access may require removing exterior panels or the condenser/evaporator cover
• Handle the molded housing carefully to avoid cracking; reuse mounting hardware unless damaged
• Fan wheel spins freely and is properly centered in the scroll during reassembly

This fan motor retainer secures the refrigerator's fan motor to its mounting bracket or shroud, reducing vibration and keeping the fan aligned so air circulates properly for consistent cooling.

• Secures the fan motor to its bracket or shroud
• Maintains proper fan alignment and clearance for consistent airflow
• Helps reduce vibration, buzzing, or rattling from a loose motor
• A worn or missing retainer may present as scraping fan noises or uneven airflow

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing; allow moving parts to stop and wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the fan area per your model
• Transfer the motor into the new retainer and reinstall using existing hardware as required
• Ensure the fan blade spins freely and clears the shroud before restoring power

This replacement gasket seals the appliance door to help maintain proper temperature and prevent leaks, keeping the interior efficient and protected. Use it to restore a tight door seal and reduce energy loss from gaps. What it does:

• Forms a secure seal around the door to keep heat or cold inside the appliance
• Prevents water, steam, and air leaks that can cause poor performance or messes
• Helps maintain consistent internal temperature for efficient operation
• Reduces cycling and energy waste caused by a damaged or worn seal

• One replacement gasket

• Disconnect power and empty the appliance before starting any repair
• Inspect the door frame and mounting channel for damage or debris before installing
• Install by seating gasket evenly into the channel or following the OEM mounting clips/adhesive method

The Evaporator Fan Motor Blade is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a crucial component of the refrigerator's cooling system, attached to the evaporator fan motor to circulate air over the evaporator coils. This circulation helps distribute cold air throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments, ensuring consistent temperatures and efficient operation.

Symptoms of a bad Evaporator Fan Motor Blade include:

• Unusual noise coming from the fan area, indicating the blade may be hitting another component or is unbalanced,
• Insufficient cooling in the refrigerator or freezer compartments,
• The refrigerator running longer than usual to maintain the desired temperature.

Causes of evaporator fan motor blade failure typically include physical damage from interference with other components, wear from continuous use, or buildup of ice or debris that unbalances the blade.

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for monitoring the temperature of the evaporator coils. When the coils reach a certain temperature, the thermostat signals the defrost heater to turn on and melt any ice or frost buildup. This ensures proper airflow and prevents excessive ice formation.

Causes of a bad defrost thermostat can be attributed to normal wear and tear over time or electrical malfunctions.  

Symptoms of a bad defrost thermostat include:

• Excessive ice buildup in the freezer section.
• Inadequate cooling in the refrigerator compartment.
• Frost or ice accumulating on the evaporator coils.

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

The Evaporator Fan Motor Grommet is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is designed to provide a secure and vibration-free mounting for the evaporator fan motor, ensuring proper operation and reducing noise.

Causes of a faulty evaporator fan motor grommet can include wear and tear over time, damage from excessive vibrations or impact, or deterioration due to temperature changes.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan motor grommet may include:

• Excessive noise or rattling coming from the refrigerator
• Poor cooling performance or uneven temperatures inside the refrigerator
• Fan motor instability or misalignment

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 molded air deflector directs cold freezer airflow around the icemaker assembly to help maintain consistent ice production and reduce partial fills. It's a simple replacement that restores proper air routing inside the freezer compartment. What it does:

• Guides cold air to and around the icemaker so the unit can cool evenly
• Helps prevent warm-air pockets that can cause small or misshapen ice
• Restores intended airflow after a cracked or missing deflector
• Passive part with no electrical components or adjustments

• One icemaker air deflector

• Basic snap- or screw-in replacement; inspect mounting tabs for damage before installing
• Turn off power to the refrigerator before accessing the icemaker area
• Handle plastic parts carefully to avoid cracking mounting clips

This fan scroll gasket seals the evaporator/fan housing to prevent air bypass and maintain proper airflow through the evaporator. Replacing a worn gasket helps restore efficient cooling and reduces frost buildup. What it does:

• Seals the fan scroll/evaporator housing to direct cold air through the evaporator fins
• Prevents air leaks that can cause reduced cooling or temperature fluctuations
• Helps reduce frost or ice buildup by ensuring consistent airflow over the coil
• Can reduce abnormal fan noise caused by air turbulence around a damaged seal

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work.
• Remove the evaporator/fan housing cover and carefully pull out the old gasket.
• Clean mating surfaces of debris and residue for a flush seal before installing the new gasket.
• Seat the gasket fully around the scroll; reassemble panels and restore power to test operation.

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
