Condenser

This condenser is the refrigerant heat-exchange coil that helps remove heat from your refrigerator's cooling system so the appliance can maintain proper cold temperatures. Replacing a damaged or clogged condenser restores normal cooling performance. What it does:

• Dissipates heat from the refrigerant to the surrounding air so the refrigerator can cool efficiently.
• Helps keep compressor run-time within normal ranges; a failing condenser can cause long run cycles.
• Prevents excessive heat buildup that can lead to warm compartments or higher energy use.
• Works as part of the sealed refrigeration system with the compressor, evaporator, and tubing.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before removing access panels or working near electrical components.
• Avoid bending or crushing the condenser fins; use care when handling and positioning the coil.
• Inspect mounting hardware and any attached tubing or brackets; replace damaged clips or fasteners as needed.

This condenser assembly replaces a damaged or worn condenser coil package to help maintain proper heat rejection and support consistent refrigerator cooling. It restores the condenser pathway so the system can shed heat efficiently. What it does:

• Provides the condenser coil and mounting assembly that dissipates heat from the refrigerant
• Helps the refrigerator maintain proper operating temperatures when functioning correctly
• Common symptom: poor or inconsistent cooling when condenser is clogged, bent, or damaged
• Can reduce compressor overwork caused by restricted heat rejection

• One condenser assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Wear gloves to protect against sharp fins and edges; handle coil carefully to avoid bending
• Minor disassembly of rear/lower access panels is typically required for removal and replacement
