The Thermostat is an OEM part for stand-alone GE freezers. Located inside the freezer compartment, the thermostat monitors and controls interior temperatures to maintain a constant freezing environment for food storage. As the primary control component, it plays a critical role in food preservation.

Causes of a bad thermostat include worn or damaged sensor components from prolonged exposure to freezing temperatures. Failed electronic modules or loose wiring connections can also lead to thermostat replacement needs.

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• Erratic or fluctuating freezer temperatures 
• Excessive ice or frost buildup on walls and shelves
• Frozen or warm foods inside the freezer  
• The unit fails to switch between cooling cycles properly

This genuine OEM GE thermostat restores precise and consistent temperature regulation for dependable food storage. It is also compatible with stand-alone freezer models manufactured by Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore.
 

This interior drain plug seals and directs defrost and condensation water into the refrigerator drain channel to help prevent leaks and pooling inside the cabinet. Replacement restores proper drainage and reduces standing water near drawers. What it does:

• Seals the refrigerator drain opening so defrost/condensation water flows into the drain channel
• Helps prevent water from pooling under crispers or on shelf surfaces
• Reduces risk of fouling odors by keeping drain flow unobstructed
• Works with the drain trough and drain tube to route moisture to the evaporator pan

• One interior drain plug

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing interior panels
• Remove shelves/drawers and the evaporator or back inner panel as required for access

Door lock secures the appliance door during use, allowing cycles to start and run safely. Replace a broken or failing lock to restore proper closure and prevent interruption of operation. What it does:

• Latches and holds the door closed so the appliance can start and complete cycles.
• Triggers the control to allow operation only when the door is fully closed.
• Common symptom: appliance won't start or stops mid-cycle because the door won't latch.
• May be needed if the door feels loose, won't stay closed, or you hear clicking when trying to start.

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before starting any repair.
• Handle parts carefully; avoid forcing or bending mounting tabs during installation.

The Drier is an OEM component specifically designed for GE combination refrigerator-freezers. Absorbing moisture, its treated silica particles buffer humidity within refrigerant lines. Proper drying sustains energy-efficient performance while preventing corrosion.

Causes of a faulty drier commonly relate to saturation reducing capacity. As desiccant degrades, water passes into closed system compressors requiring change. 

Symptoms of a bad drier involve:

• Frost and ice buildup impairing cooling  
• Puddling around evaporator evidencing leaks
• Higher operating costs from impaired efficiency

Causes of a bad drier involve typical saturation shortening drying cycles. Cracks release desiccant particles risking blockages necessitating timely replacement.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Frigidaire combination units. Replace to retain steady humidity management protecting components and maximizing freshness years of operation.
 

The R600 Process Valve with Red Cap is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It regulates the flow of refrigerant within the cooling system, ensuring proper cooling and temperature control.

A bad process valve can occur due to wear and tear, refrigerant leaks, or mechanical failure. If you notice symptoms such as inadequate cooling, excessive frost buildup, or unusual noises coming from the refrigerator, it may indicate a faulty or malfunctioning process valve.

Symptoms of a bad process valve include:

• Inadequate cooling or inconsistent temperature control
• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer
• Unusual noises coming from the refrigerator

Restore your refrigerator by replacing the faulty process valve with this genuine OEM part.

This GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
