Parts for Ge TBX19PAYFRBB: 05 - Compartment Separator Parts

Size: 8-32 t. Includes 12 screws.

This vinyl sleeve fits over a rod, tube, or wire in the refrigerator to protect and cushion contact points. It reduces wear and vibration and helps keep components aligned for smooth, reliable operation.

• Provides a protective barrier at contact points to prevent abrasion or marring
• Helps maintain spacing and alignment for a snug, proper fit
• Cushions to damp vibration and reduce rattles or squeaks
• Replace if the sleeve is missing, cracked, hardened, or if components feel loose or make noise

• Disconnect power; turn off the water supply if working near water lines
• Note the sleeve's original location and orientation; take a photo for reference
• Remove the old sleeve and any debris; slide the new sleeve into the same position
• Check clearance and resecure related parts before restoring power

The Light Bulb (40W) is an OEM component for GE refrigerators. As an essential task lamp, it illuminates the interior of the refrigerator and freezer compartments. 

All light bulbs will eventually burn out with consistent use over many years. Vibration during compressor cycles can also potentially disrupt bulb filaments faster. 

Symptoms of a burnt out refrigerator light bulb include:

• Dim or no light illuminating inside refrigerator shelves  
• Shadows and dark spots making it difficult to find items
• Higher utility costs from leaving the door open to see inside

This bulb is also compatible with refrigerators from brands like Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. 

The Light Switch is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It controls the interior light, turning it on when the refrigerator door is opened and off when the door is closed. This ensures proper illumination for visibility when accessing the refrigerator's contents.

A malfunctioning light switch can result from wear and tear, electrical issues, or damage caused by repeated use. Over time, the internal mechanism may fail, or the housing can crack, leading to improper operation.

Symptoms of a bad light switch include:

• Interior light not turning on when the door is opened
• Light staying on even when the door is closed
• Flickering or inconsistent light operation
• Difficulty pressing or releasing the switch

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

This defrost heater kit warms the evaporator during the automatic defrost cycle to melt frost and keep air moving. Replace it when ice builds up on the freezer coils and temperatures rise or airflow is restricted.

• Heats the evaporator coil during defrost to clear accumulated frost/ice
• Helps maintain proper airflow and stable temperatures in both compartments
• Symptoms can include heavy frost on the back wall/evaporator cover, reduced cooling, or fan noise from ice contact
• A failed heater can leave the defrost system unable to clear ice, restricting airflow

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the heater behind the freezer's rear panel; safely remove heavy ice before replacement
• Move wires and clips one at a time, routing exactly like the original to avoid pinched or exposed conductors
• After replacement, monitor defrost operation; icing persists, also check the defrost thermostat and control

The Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It automatically initiates timed defrost cycles to prevent the buildup of frost or ice within the refrigerator compartment and freezer coils. Regular defrosting maintains optimal temperature regulation and airflow while minimizing mineral deposits long-term.  

Symptoms of a bad defrost timer include:

• Inability to initiate automatic defrost functions
• Accumulation of excessive frost or ice buildup risking freezer damage    
• Temperature control or airflow issues disrupting refrigeration  
• Potential dripping or leaks from defrost water overflow

Causes of failure involve worn-out internal contacts or degraded electronic components from extended exposure to refrigerated conditions. Mineral residue accumulating within the timer mechanism over many years also risks impeding electrical connections.

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

This replacement screw is used in refrigerators to fasten specific components. Replace a lost or damaged fastener to restore a secure, factory hold so brackets, panels, or covers stay properly mounted and rattle-free.

• Secures the designated component per your model's parts diagram
• Replaces missing, stripped, or corroded hardware
• Helps eliminate looseness, vibration, or rattling from unsecured parts
• Supports proper alignment and fit after service

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Match this screw to the original location using your model's parts diagram
• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Use the correct driver for the screw head style
