Amana Damper & Related

The Damper Control Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component regulates the flow of cold air from the freezer compartment to the refrigerator compartment, ensuring consistent and optimal temperatures throughout the appliance. It plays a critical role in maintaining the balance between freezer and refrigerator temperatures.

Common causes of a bad damper control assembly include electrical malfunctions, physical damage to the damper, or wear and tear from regular use. Over time, the motor or the damper flap can fail, leading to improper air regulation.

Symptoms of a bad damper control assembly include:

• Inconsistent temperatures between the freezer and refrigerator compartments
• The refrigerator being too warm or too cold
• Frost buildup in the refrigerator compartment
• The damper making unusual noises or not moving as it should

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

The Damper Control is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It regulates the airflow between the freezer and refrigerator compartments, maintaining the appropriate temperatures in each section. This component ensures that cold air is distributed properly, contributing to the overall efficiency and performance of the refrigerator.

Common causes of a bad damper control can include wear and tear over time, electrical failures, or mechanical obstructions. A malfunctioning damper control can lead to temperature imbalances, affecting the preservation of food.

Symptoms of a bad damper control include:

• Inconsistent temperatures between the freezer and refrigerator
• Freezer overly cold while the refrigerator is too warm, or vice versa
• Frost buildup in the refrigerator compartment
• Unusual noises coming from the damper area

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

The Air Diffuser Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It regulates the airflow between the refrigerator and freezer compartments, ensuring the proper distribution of cold air to maintain the desired temperatures in both sections.  

Common causes of a faulty air diffuser assembly include wear and tear from regular use, damage from ice buildup, or mechanical failure of the moving parts within the diffuser.

Symptoms of a bad air diffuser assembly include:

• Uneven temperatures between the refrigerator and freezer compartments
• Frost buildup in the freezer or refrigerator
• The refrigerator compartment being too warm or too cold
• Unusual noises coming from the air diffuser area

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

This electronic control board is the brain of the appliance, directing power and timing to components so cycles run as designed. Replacing a failed board restores proper operation and consistent, reliable performance. What it does:

• Controls cycle timing and sends power to motors, valves, heaters, and other loads
• Processes inputs from sensors and switches to start and advance cycles
• Resolve a unit that won't start or appears dead/unresponsive
• Correct erratic operation, stuck cycles, or recurring error codes

• 1 electronic control board

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water or gas if applicable
• Use ESD precautions and handle the board by its edges only
• Document wire locations or take photos; move connectors one at a time and reuse mounting hardware
• Some models require calibration or programming after installation—follow the tech sheet/service manual

Electronic air damper control assembly for the refrigerator. It regulates the flow of cold air from the freezer into the fresh food compartment to keep temperatures consistent, helping prevent warm spots or over-cooling that can freeze items.

• Opens and closes a damper door to meter airflow from the freezer into the refrigerator
• Helps maintain set temperatures and balanced airflow between compartments
• Resolves symptoms such as a warm fresh-food section, items freezing in the refrigerator, temperature swings, weak/no airflow from the diffuser, or clicking/buzzing noises from the damper area

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing; use gloves to protect from sharp edges
• Remove shelves and the air duct/cover to access the damper; keep fasteners for reuse
• Unplug the wiring connector, release locking tabs, and install the new assembly fully seated and aligned
• Restore power and verify damper operation and airflow before reloading the compartment

The air diffuser is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This air diffuser is responsible for evenly distributing cool air throughout the refrigerator compartment. 

Causes of a bad air diffuser can include cracks or breaks in the plastic that disrupt proper airflow. Over many years of use, the continuous circulation of air can weaken and damage the diffuser.

Symptoms of a bad air diffuser include:

• Warm or hot spots in the refrigerator compartment 
• Increased energy usage from the cooling system overworking to maintain temperatures
• Collecting of dust or debris inside the refrigerator 

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

This refrigerator air damper control is the motorized assembly that regulates how much cold freezer air enters the fresh food section, helping maintain even, accurate temperatures and consistent airflow across shelves.

• Meters airflow from the freezer to the refrigerator via a motor-driven damper door
• Helps the control system reach and maintain target temperatures
• Failure symptoms include: refrigerator too warm, items freezing near the vent, weak or no airflow from the diffuser, or repetitive clicking/ratcheting noises from the damper area
• A stuck-open or stuck-closed damper can cause temperature swings or ice buildup around the vent

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the damper from inside the fresh food compartment; remove shelves and the cover/console as needed
• Unplug the wire harness and remove mounting screws; transfer any foam seals or ducts from the original to the new assembly if required
• Reassemble, restore power, and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize
