Parts for Electrolux EFMC517STT0: 04 - Controls / Top Panel Parts

This pre-programmed user interface control board assembly manages the buttons and display on your appliance's control panel. Replacing a failed UI board restores responsive controls and accurate indications from the panel. What it does:

• Interprets keypad inputs and drives the display/indicator LEDs
• Sends user selections to the main control for proper operation
• Helps resolve an unresponsive or intermittent control panel
• Addresses blank, flickering, or garbled display behavior

• 1 pre-programmed user interface control board assembly

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use ESD protection; handle the PCB by the edges only
• Photograph wiring and ribbon connections; match keyed connectors and orientation on reassembly
• Reuse existing mounting hardware, trim, and overlays as needed; ensure all harnesses are seated before restoring power

This diffuser directs and evens airflow inside the appliance to promote consistent temperature and efficient operation. Replaces a damaged or broken diffuser to restore proper air distribution and reduce airflow noise. What it does:

• Guides cool or warm air from the blower/vent to improve circulation and temperature consistency
• Helps prevent hot or cold spots by evenly dispersing incoming airflow
• Replaces cracked, warped, or missing diffusers that can cause reduced airflow or noise
• Common symptom fixer: uneven cooling, fluctuating temperatures, or rattling/whistling near the vent

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Typically installs at the vent or blower outlet; common fasteners are clips or screws — keep hardware if replacing only the diffuser
• Handle plastic parts gently to avoid cracking; align tabs/slots before fastening

This metal top panel replaces the upper rear control housing on compatible Frigidaire ranges and stoves, restoring a secure mounting surface for controls and improving cabinet fit and appearance. Ideal for repairing bent, rusted, or damaged panels. What it does

• Replaces the upper rear housing that supports control knobs, switches and the backguard area
• Restores proper alignment and spacing between the cooktop and rear controls
• Stops light leaks and relieves stress from warped or bent panels
• Commonly used when the panel is dented, rusted, cracked, or has broken mounting tabs

• One top panel

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before starting any work
• Handle sharp sheet-metal edges with gloves; panel edges can be sharp
• Remove control knobs, backguard, or trim as required and save screws for reinstallation
• Align mounting tabs and secure with original hardware; test controls after reassembly

This damper is the refrigerator air-control flap that regulates airflow between compartments to help maintain consistent temperatures and proper cooling. It replaces a worn or stuck damper to restore normal airflow and temperature balance. What it does:

• Opens and closes to direct cold air where needed between freezer and fresh-food sections
• Helps maintain even temperatures and prevents one compartment from getting too warm
• Common symptom: uneven cooling or warm fresh-food section despite running compressor
• Common symptom: damper stuck or not moving, causing poor temperature control

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove interior panels to access the damper; use basic hand tools
• Handle the damper and any wiring harness carefully to avoid damage
• After installation, verify damper operation and allow time for temperatures to stabilize

The Harness is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire clothes dryers. It consists of bundled wiring that connects control boards to other electrical components throughout the unit. 

Causes of failure include normal wear from vibration in motion, as well as damage due to cracks from over-bending during installs. Heat aging and moisture intrusion risks also increase with time.

Signs of a bad harness include:

• Dryer not powering on or not heating properly
• Intermittent reactions to control inputs  
• Frayed cables or conducting tape visible
• Electrical burning smells when operating

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

This factory 8-18 screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and components. Replace missing or stripped hardware to restore a tight, rattle-free assembly and dependable operation.

• Fastens components to frames, brackets, and covers
• Replaces missing, damaged, or rusted screws
• Helps reduce looseness, vibration, and rattling noises
• Restores proper alignment of panels and assemblies

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off gas/water if applicable
• Start the screw by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the proper driver
• Tighten snugly—do not overtighten to prevent stripping metal or plastic
