Parts for Whirlpool EV181FZTQ11: 04 - Door Parts

This door stop replaces the worn or broken stop that limits door travel and keeps the door aligned for smooth opening and closing. Restores proper door positioning to prevent over-travel and edge wear. What it does:

• Acts as the mechanical stop that limits the door's range of motion
• Helps keep the door aligned and prevents the door from swinging past the designed stop
• Reduces stress on hinges and adjacent trim from over-travel
• Commonly replaced when the door binds, catches, or does not sit flush

What's included:

• One door stop (stop-door) as shown

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and follow the appliance manufacturer's safety instructions before servicing
• Removal typically requires basic hand tools; keep fasteners for reassembly
• Inspect surrounding hinge and trim for wear; replace as needed

This replacement screw fastens appliance panels, brackets, and internal components so everything stays aligned and rattle-free. Use it to replace stripped, corroded, or missing hardware and restore a solid, secure fit during repairs.

• Secures panels, brackets, covers, and assemblies in place
• Replaces damaged or missing hardware to maintain a firm hold
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling from loose fasteners
• Supports proper fit and alignment after service

• Disconnect power and shut off water/gas (as applicable) before servicing
• Match to the original fastener and replace one at a time to keep alignment
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; do not overtighten, especially into plastic
• Repair threads or use the manufacturer-specified hardware for that location

This vent plug seals the designated vent port on the appliance assembly to maintain the intended seal and containment. Replacing a worn or missing plug helps prevent nuisance leaks and odors from an open or damaged vent.

• Helps prevent moisture or drips from escaping at the vent area
• Helps keep dust and debris from entering through an open port
• Replace if the plug is cracked, hardened, shrunken, loose, or missing
• Typical signs include moisture around the vent, visible damage, or a plug that won't stay seated

• Disconnect power and shut off water or gas supplies (as applicable) before servicing
• Allow appliance surfaces to cool and dry; wear protective gloves
• Remove the old plug, clean the vent port, and press the new plug fully flush in the same orientation
• Restore power and run a brief test; inspect the vent area for leaks

This magnetic door gasket seals the perimeter of the refrigerator or freezer door to keep cold air in and humidity out. Replacing a worn gasket restores a tight seal, stabilizes temperatures, and helps reduce frost and energy use. What it does:

• Creates an airtight magnetic seal between the cabinet and door liner
• Helps maintain proper interior temperature and efficiency
• Reduces condensation, frost, and ice buildup around the door opening
• Resolves gaps, torn or hardened gasket edges, doors not sealing, or frequent cycling

• 1 magnetic door gasket

• Disconnect power and clear door bins/shelves for access
• Warm the new gasket in hot water or with low heat to relax and straighten before installation
• Seat the gasket evenly around the perimeter; ensure the lip is fully engaged in the channel (loosen retainer screws if your model uses them)
• Close the door and check for uniform contact; re-seat corners or adjust hinges as needed. Allow up to 24 hours for the gasket to fully conform.
