Parts for Maytag MSS25C4MGB03: Air Flow Parts

This fan scroll is the molded airflow housing that channels cooling air through the appliance to help the cooling system run efficiently. Replace a damaged or cracked scroll to restore proper airflow and reduce excessive noise. What it does

• Directs airflow from the condenser/evaporator area to improve heat exchange and cooling performance
• Helps stabilize airflow so the fan blade runs quietly and efficiently
• Can reduce overheating or frost issues caused by disrupted airflow
• Commonly replaced when cracked, melted, or broken mounting tabs cause vibration or air leaks

• One fan scroll

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Typically accessed from the rear or inside panels; some panels or components may need removal
• Inspect the fan blade and motor while replacing the scroll; damaged blades or loose mounts can cause repeat issues
• Use care when aligning mounting tabs and fasteners to avoid cracks; hand-tighten screws before final torque

This retainer is a small mounting clip that secures a component to the appliance housing or shaft, keeping parts aligned and preventing excess movement for reliable operation. It's a simple replacement that restores proper fit and function. What it does:

• Secures a component in place to prevent slipping, rotation, or misalignment
• Maintains correct spacing between moving parts to reduce wear and noise
• Helps stop rattling or loose parts caused by a broken or missing clip
• Works as a straightforward mechanical fastener—no wiring or sensors involved

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting any repair.
• Access may require removing a panel or adjacent parts—keep fasteners organized.
• Inspect surrounding parts (shafts, bearings, brackets) for wear before reassembly.
• Use basic hand tools; replace if the clip is cracked, bent, or worn.

The Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It serves a pivotal role in circulating air over the refrigerator's evaporator coils, helping to maintain the cool temperatures throughout the unit. This circulation is crucial for the efficiency and effectiveness of your refrigerator's cooling process.

Causes of a bad Evaporator Fan Motor can include wear and tear over time, motor burnout due to electrical issues, or obstruction that prevents the fan from spinning.
 
Symptoms of a bad Evaporator Fan Motor include:

• Unusual noises coming from the refrigerator, such as humming or buzzing, indicating the motor is struggling.
• The refrigerator or freezer section is not cooling adequately.
• A noticeable difference in temperature between the top and bottom of the refrigerator or freezer.
• Ice build-up on the evaporator coils due to inadequate air circulation.

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

This evaporator cover gasket seals the evaporator cover to help maintain proper airflow and reduce moisture intrusion in the freezer compartment. It restores the evaporator cover seal to help prevent frost buildup and maintain consistent cooling. What it does:

• Seals the evaporator cover to limit air/moisture exchange that can cause frost and ice buildup.
• Helps maintain designed airflow over the evaporator for more consistent temperature control.
• Reduces the chance of excessive frost on evaporator fins and associated freezer performance issues.
• Commonly used when you see frost accumulation, frequent defrosting, or reduced freezer efficiency.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work to avoid electrical shock.
• Allow the evaporator area to fully defrost and dry before installing the new gasket.
• Remove the evaporator cover carefully; take note of fastener locations and any clips for correct reassembly.
• Inspect surrounding components and replace any damaged parts to ensure a proper seal.

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 8-18 x 5/8-inch screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and covers. Replacing a missing or stripped fastener restores a tight fit and helps prevent vibration or loosening where this exact size is specified.

• Fastens sheet-metal or plastic components where a #8-18 x 5/8 screw is called for
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce rattling or vibration
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing screws of the same size
• Common symptoms: loose panels, gaps/poor fit, rattling noises, or visible missing hardware

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water (as applicable) before service
• Match thread and length to the original; replace screws one at a time to keep parts aligned
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• If the receiving threads are damaged, additional repair (clip, insert, or new nut) may be needed

The Wire Harness is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a critical component that contains all the wiring between electrical controls, motors, sensors, and other components inside the refrigerator. The wire harness allows communication and power transfer throughout the appliance.

Symptoms of a bad wire harness include:

• Lights or displays not working properly   
• The refrigerator not starting cool cycles or completing them
• Strange noises coming from motors or other areas  
• Error codes appearing on the control panel

Causes of a bad wire harness can include severed or damaged wires from normal wear and tear over time, improper installation, or exposure to moisture.

This OEM Whirlpool wire harness replacement ensures electrical signals are conducted smoothly throughout the refrigerator. It prevents disruption and allows for proper operation. This OEM replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
 

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.
