Parts for Ge MTG18GABPRWW: 03 - Cabinet Parts

The Ice Maker Fill Tube Grommet is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This grommet creates a seal between the ice maker fill tube and the refrigerator, preventing leaks and ensuring that water is properly directed into the ice maker during the filling process.

Causes of a bad grommet can include regular wear and tear, damage from exposure to freezing and thawing cycles, or degradation from exposure to water and moisture.  

Symptoms of a bad ice maker fill tube grommet include:

• Water leaks around the ice maker fill tube area
• Ice maker not producing ice properly
• Visible cracks or deformation in the grommet
• Water pooling inside or around the refrigerator

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

A small replacement shim that fits at the center hinge to correct hinge alignment and keep the door operating smoothly. Helps reduce binding and uneven gaps so the door closes more reliably. What it does:

• Provides a precise spacer at the center hinge to correct misalignment
• Helps reduce door rubbing, binding, and uneven wear on hinge surfaces
• Restores proper door fit and helps maintain an even gasket seal
• Used during hinge adjustment or after hinge/door repair to fine-tune alignment

• Follow the appliance manufacturer's service manual; disconnect power or water if required before starting
• Remove the door or hinge trim as needed to access the center hinge per instructions
• Reinstall hinge hardware in the same order; tighten fasteners evenly and test door movement

Includes 12 washers.

This evaporator fan blade mounts on the freezer fan motor and circulates air across the evaporator coils. Replacing a cracked or warped blade restores proper airflow for even cooling and more consistent temperatures throughout the refrigerator.

• Moves chilled air from the evaporator through the ducts to both compartments
• Helps maintain uniform temperatures and overall cooling performance
• Common symptoms of a faulty blade: weak airflow, poor cooling or warm spots, rattling/scraping noises from the freezer, longer run times
• Visual signs include a cracked hub, loose fit on the shaft, or broken/missing vanes

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove freezer shelves/ice bin and the rear panel to access the fan assembly
• Pull the old blade straight off the motor shaft; align the hub and press the new blade on until fully seated
• Verify blade orientation and free rotation inside the shroud before reassembly

The Evaporator Fan Blade is an OEM component for GE freezers and bottom-mount refrigerator designs. Located inside the freezer compartment, this fan blade spins to circulate cold air evenly throughout the storage space.

Causes of a faulty evaporator fan blade include natural fatigue from running year-round. Freezers exposed to humid environments may experience faster corrosion.

Symptoms include: 

• Abnormal sounds like knocking or clunking from inside the walls  
• cold spots developing in certain freezer areas
• Higher power bills from inefficient temperature regulation
• Frost or ice patches forming on evaporator coils

This part is also compatible with some brands like Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore.

The Fan Blade Grommet is an OEM replacement part for GE brand refrigerators. Located behind the evaporator fan blade where its central shaft passes through, this rubber sealing piece creates a protective barrier isolating the fan assembly.

Causes of a potentially problematic fan blade grommet include cracks or deterioration that develop from continuous vibration and impacts over extended use. Exposure to temperature fluctuations can also cause the rubber to harden and lose elasticity. 

Symptoms of a faulty fan blade grommet include:

• Airflow obstructions within the duct 
• Noisy vibrations from the fan assembly
• Rubber debris collecting on components

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