Parts for Jenn-Air JS2628HEKB: 02 - Compressor Parts

The Water Filter is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is designed to filter and purify the water for your refrigerator, ensuring clean and fresh drinking water and ice.

A bad refrigerator water filter can be caused by regular use and the buildup of contaminants over time. It may also become less effective if not replaced according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule.

Symptoms of a bad refrigerator water filter include:

• A decrease in water flow or water pressure.
• An unpleasant taste or odor in the water.
• The presence of particles or sediment in the water.
• Cloudy or discolored ice cubes.

If you notice any of these signs or if it has been more than six months since your last filter replacement, it's time to replace the refrigerator water filter with this genuine OEM part. 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 short machine screw secures small appliance panels, trim pieces, and components to keep assemblies stable and aligned. It's a direct-fit fastener commonly used in laundry and kitchen appliances to replace lost or damaged screws. What it does:

• Fastens panels, bezels, brackets, or small components to the main appliance cabinet or subassembly
• Restores a secure fit when loose or missing screws cause rattling or misaligned parts
• Prevents further wear or damage from unsecured panels or trim
• Works where a short-length machine screw is specified by the manufacturer

• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-torquing which can strip threads or crack plastic parts
• Disconnect power or follow appliance safety procedures before servicing electrical appliances
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating fastener or insert rather than relying on an oversized screw

A replacement start device that helps the refrigerator compressor start reliably so the cooling system can run. Fits units that use a separate start relay-style device on the compressor. What it does

• Provides the initial boost/current path the compressor needs to start spinning.
• Commonly used when the compressor hums but the fridge doesn't cool or cycles on and off.
• Can fail intermittently, causing clicking, long run times, or no-compressor-start symptoms.
• Works as the electrical start aid for reciprocating refrigeration compressors.

• One start device (single compressor start relay-style unit)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the compressor or electrical connections.
• Match the part to the compressor terminals and handle the device by the housing to avoid terminal damage.
• Inspect wiring and the condenser/compressor area for overheating or damage while replacing the device.

This grommet is a small protective seal used where a hose, tube, wire, or component passes through or mounts to the appliance cabinet. It cushions the connection and helps prevent leaks, vibration, and wear for reliable operation.

• Provides a snug barrier between parts and metal openings to protect hoses, tubes, and wiring
• Helps seal against moisture to reduce seepage
• Dampens vibration and rattling noises
• Replace if cracked, hardened, missing, or no longer stays seated; symptoms may include drips at a pass-through, buzzing/rattling, or a loose fit

• Disconnect power; shut off water supply if applicable
• Access the grommet location and note orientation/routing
• Remove the old grommet and clean the opening
• Press the new grommet fully into place; reassemble and test for leaks/noise

This seal strip replaces a worn or damaged door gasket edge to restore a proper seal and help the appliance maintain temperature and operate quietly. It's a direct-fit service part used where a continuous seal is required. What it does:

• Provides a flexible barrier along the door/frame to reduce air leaks and heat/cold loss
• Helps prevent moisture buildup and improves energy efficiency when sealing is restored
• Reduces rattling and vibration caused by a compressed or torn seal edge
• Commonly replaced when the strip is torn, missing, or no longer adheres properly

• One seal strip

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical or burn hazards
• Clean and dry the mounting surface; remove old adhesive or residue for best adhesion
• Align the strip carefully and press firmly; allow any adhesive to cure per manufacturer instructions

This running capacitor restores proper motor operation by providing the phase shift needed for fan and compressor motors. It helps motors run smoothly and reduces overheating or hard-start symptoms when the original capacitor fails. What it does:

• Provides the steady electrical phase shift required for motor operation in refrigeration and HVAC systems
• Helps restore normal motor starting and running performance
• Can reduce motor overheating, humming, or intermittent operation caused by a bad capacitor
• Used when the motor runs poorly, won't reach full speed, or cycles unusually

• 1 running capacitor

• Disconnect power at the breaker and verify the appliance is de-energized before servicing
• Discharge the capacitor with an insulated tool and wear insulated gloves and eye protection
• Replace with the same type and mounting orientation; secure all wire connections firmly

This replacement screw secures specified refrigerator components—such as covers, brackets, and internal panels—so they stay properly mounted. Replace a missing, stripped, or corroded fastener to restore a tight, rattle-free fit and reliable operation.

• Provides the correct fastener for locations identified in your model's parts diagram
• Helps prevent looseness, vibration, and rattling of panels or brackets
• Replace if the head is stripped, threads are worn, or the screw is missing
• Symptoms can include loose parts, gaps, or noises from movement

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off water if working near the ice maker or dispenser
• Match length and type to the original; follow your model's parts diagram for placement
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without over-torquing, especially into plastic
• Keep track of screw positions; do not mix different screw lengths or styles

This condenser grommet cushions and secures the refrigerator condenser assembly, reducing vibration and preventing metal-to-metal contact. It helps keep the condenser stable for quieter operation and longer component life. What it does:

• Isolates condenser from the cabinet to reduce rattling and vibration noise
• Prevents condenser edges from rubbing or wearing against the chassis
• Helps maintain proper condenser alignment for efficient airflow
• Commonly replaced when cracked, torn, or missing and causing noise or movement

• Disconnect power before servicing the appliance.
• Support the condenser assembly before removing or installing the grommet to avoid stress on tubing.
• Push the grommet into position; replace any grommets that are brittle or deformed.

This condenser fan blade is the rotating plastic blade that moves air across the condenser coils to help remove heat from the refrigerator. Replacing a damaged blade restores proper airflow for more consistent cooling. What it does:

• Spins on the condenser fan motor to circulate air over condenser coils
• Helps dissipate heat so the compressor and fridge run efficiently
• Can cause reduced cooling or higher temperatures if broken or missing

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any service
• Inspect the fan motor shaft and mounting for wear; replace motor if shaft is damaged
• Handle the blade carefully to avoid cracking; ensure blade is seated and secured before testing

This bracket grommet cushions a component where it mounts to a bracket in your refrigerator. It isolates metal-to-metal contact to reduce vibration and rattling and helps keep parts aligned for quieter, reliable operation.

• Fits into a mounting bracket to provide a cushioned seat for a component
• Isolates vibration and reduces noise by preventing metal-to-metal contact
• Helps maintain secure mounting and proper alignment
• Common signs of wear: cracking, flattening, missing grommet, increased vibration or rattling

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water supply if working near water lines
• Access the bracket and support the mounted component to relieve weight
• Remove the worn grommet and press the new grommet fully into the bracket opening
• Reassemble and snug fasteners—do not overtighten, so the grommet can isolate vibration
