Parts for Jenn-Air JCB2280HEW: 06 - Elec Control And Toe Grille Parts

This refrigerator air damper control is the motorized assembly that regulates how much cold freezer air enters the fresh food section, helping maintain even, accurate temperatures and consistent airflow across shelves.

• Meters airflow from the freezer to the refrigerator via a motor-driven damper door
• Helps the control system reach and maintain target temperatures
• Failure symptoms include: refrigerator too warm, items freezing near the vent, weak or no airflow from the diffuser, or repetitive clicking/ratcheting noises from the damper area
• A stuck-open or stuck-closed damper can cause temperature swings or ice buildup around the vent

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the damper from inside the fresh food compartment; remove shelves and the cover/console as needed
• Unplug the wire harness and remove mounting screws; transfer any foam seals or ducts from the original to the new assembly if required
• Reassemble, restore power, and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize

The Damper Control is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It regulates the airflow between the freezer and refrigerator compartments, maintaining the appropriate temperatures in each section. This component ensures that cold air is distributed properly, contributing to the overall efficiency and performance of the refrigerator.

Common causes of a bad damper control can include wear and tear over time, electrical failures, or mechanical obstructions. A malfunctioning damper control can lead to temperature imbalances, affecting the preservation of food.

Symptoms of a bad damper control include:

• Inconsistent temperatures between the freezer and refrigerator
• Freezer overly cold while the refrigerator is too warm, or vice versa
• Frost buildup in the refrigerator compartment
• Unusual noises coming from the damper area

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This replacement screw secures panels, brackets, and components inside appliances. Replacing a missing or stripped fastener restores a snug, rattle-free fit using the correct #8-18 thread and 5/8-inch length.

• Fastens covers, trims, brackets, and internal parts to the cabinet/frame
• Used wherever a #8-18 x 5/8 screw is specified
• Replace if the original is missing, corroded, stripped, or will not tighten
• Symptoms: loose or rattling panels, gaps, or hardware that backs out

• Disconnect power; shut off gas/water before servicing
• Match thread and length; start by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Use the correct driver bit and tighten snugly—do not overtighten
• Inspect and replace damaged clips or tabs before securing

This black refrigerator toe grille covers the lower front opening, protecting internal components and helping guide airflow through the condenser while giving the appliance a clean, finished look. Replace a cracked or missing grille to restore fit and appearance.

• Helps direct airflow to the condenser area for proper ventilation
• Shields the machine compartment from bumps and debris
• Provides a finished, uniform look along the base
• Replace if cracked, warped, tabs are broken, won't stay attached, or rattles

• Disconnect power before servicing and wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the existing grille by releasing clips or removing screws (as designed)
• Align the new grille with mounting points and secure with the original fasteners
• Ensure ventilation slots are clear and unobstructed after installation

This drain tube gasket seals the connection between the drain tube and its mating port to prevent leaks. A tight seal helps keep water where it belongs and protects surrounding components from moisture damage.

• Creates a watertight seal at the drain tube connection point
• Can help address water leaks around the drain area
• Deterioration, cracking, or hardening of the old gasket may cause seepage
• Replacing a worn gasket can restore proper leak prevention

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water supply before service
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water when disconnecting the tube
• Inspect the tube and mating surfaces; clean before installing the new gasket
• Do not overtighten fittings; verify a snug, even seal and check for leaks on first run

This O-ring seal provides a watertight seal for the appliance's water path, helping prevent leaks and maintain proper operation. Use this exact replacement when the original ring is cracked, flattened, or worn. What it does:

• Creates a pressure-tight seal at a water connection to stop drips and leaks
• Keeps water contained inside hoses, valves or pump fittings
• Restores proper sealing when the original O-ring becomes brittle or deformed
• Helps prevent water damage to cabinetry and flooring from appliance leaks

• One O-ring seal

• Turn off power and water supply before beginning any repair
• Remove the old O-ring and clean mating surfaces of debris and buildup
• Inspect the groove or fitting for damage; replace the part if the mating surface is scored
• If needed, use a small amount of manufacturer-recommended lubricant to ease installation and protect the O-ring
