The Evaporator Cover and Fan is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators responsible for maintaining proper airflow and temperature regulation within the refrigerator's freezer compartment. The fan helps distribute the cold air while the cover protects the evaporator coils from any damage or obstruction.

A bad evaporator cover and fan can occur due to wear and tear, damage, or component failure over time. If you notice symptoms such as inconsistent cooling, excessive frost or ice buildup, or unusual noises coming from the freezer, it may indicate a need to replace the evaporator cover and fan.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator cover and fan include:

• Inconsistent cooling
• Excessive frost or ice buildup
• Unusual noises coming from the freezer

Restore your refrigerator by replacing the faulty evaporator cover and fan with this genuine OEM part.

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

The Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This part is responsible for circulating air over the refrigerator's evaporator coils to ensure a uniform distribution of cold air within the unit.  

Causes for a fan motor to fail can include electrical issues, such as blown fuses or faulty wiring, wear and tear from prolonged use, and obstruction caused by ice buildup or debris. 

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Evaporator Fan Motor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer section is not cooling efficiently.
• A noticeable increase in the temperature of the fridge or freezer compartments.
• Strange noises, such as humming or buzzing, emanating from the fan area.
• The fan fails to run when the refrigerator is active, indicating a potential motor failure.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Evaporator Harness is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. This harness is responsible for connecting the evaporator fan motor and the defrost heater to the main control board, allowing for cooling and defrosting. It enables the fan motor to circulate cold air throughout the refrigerator and the defrost heater to melt any accumulated frost or ice on the evaporator coils.

A bad evaporator harness can occur due to wear and tear, damage, or loose connections. If you notice symptoms such as inadequate cooling, excessive frost or ice buildup in the freezer, or the refrigerator not defrosting properly, it may indicate a need to replace the evaporator harness.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator harness include:

• Inadequate cooling
• Excessive frost or ice buildup in the freezer
• Improper defrosting

Restore your refrigerator by replacing the faulty evaporator harness with this genuine OEM part.

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

The Evaporator Fan Blade is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This fan blade is crucial for circulating air over the evaporator coils, which helps to maintain an even temperature throughout the refrigerator and ensures efficient cooling.

Common causes of a bad fan blade include regular wear and tear, damage from ice buildup or debris, and mechanical issues that cause the blade to crack or warp. A compromised fan blade can lead to poor air circulation, resulting in uneven cooling and potential frost buildup.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan blade include:

• Unusual noises coming from the freezer compartment
• Inconsistent temperatures within the refrigerator or freezer
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• Reduced cooling efficiency

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It plays a crucial role in the defrost system by monitoring the temperature of the evaporator coil and ensuring that it stays within the optimal range to prevent frost buildup.

Over time, the defrost thermostat can fail due to normal wear and tear, electrical issues, or exposure to moisture. If the thermostat is not functioning correctly, it can lead to excessive frost buildup or the refrigerator not defrosting properly.

Symptoms of a bad defrost thermostat include:

• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• The refrigerator or freezer not cooling efficiently
• The defrost heater not activating
• Unusual temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer compartments

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Defrost Heater Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to heat the evaporator coils during the defrost cycle, melting any accumulated ice or frost. This helps maintain proper airflow and prevents the coils from freezing over, allowing your refrigerator to cool normally.

A bad defrost heater assembly can occur due to electrical issues, component failure, or damage to the heater itself. If you notice symptoms such as excessive frost or ice buildup in the freezer, inconsistent cooling, or water pooling at the bottom of the refrigerator, it may indicate a need to replace the defrost heater assembly.

Symptoms of a bad defrost heater assembly include:

• Excessive frost or ice buildup in the freezer
• Inconsistent cooling
• Water pooling at the bottom of the refrigerator

Restore your refrigerator by replacing the faulty defrost heater assembly with this genuine OEM part.

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

This LED light board assembly provides the replacement LED module that illuminates the control/display area. Restores visibility of panel indicators and display lighting for proper operation and ease of use. What it does:

• Replaces the LED light module that backlights the control/display area and status indicators.
• Restores faded or non-lit control panel lighting that makes buttons and icons hard to see.
• Can resolve intermittent or no-light symptoms caused by a failed LED board.
• Works with the original housing and connectors for a direct-fit replacement.

• One LED light board assembly as shown

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock.
• Handle the board by edges; avoid touching LED lenses or circuitry to prevent damage.
• Verify connector orientation and seating; secure mounting screws to prevent rattle.

This light shield is the protective interior cover that helps protect the refrigerator light and direct interior illumination for better visibility. It replaces a cracked, yellowed, or missing lens to restore a finished look. What it does:

• Covers and protects the refrigerator bulb or lamp from impacts and food contact
• Helps diffuse and direct light for more even interior illumination
• Restores a clean appearance if the original shield is cracked, discolored, or missing
• Can reduce glare from the bulb and prevent debris buildup on the lamp

• One light shield / interior lamp cover

• Disconnect power to the appliance before replacing the shield
• Remove shelves or clips that obstruct access, then snap or slide the shield into place
• Inspect the bulb and socket while replacing the shield; replace the bulb if needed
• Handle the shield carefully to avoid scratches or cracks; use only genuine replacement parts

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators, designed to accurately monitor and relay the temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments to the electronic control board. By detecting the slightest changes in internal temperature, the sensor allows the control board to make real-time adjustments to the cooling system, activating the compressor and fans as needed to maintain optimal conditions for food preservation.

Over time, the temperature sensor can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or general wear and tear. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to improper temperature regulation, affecting the efficiency of the refrigerator and the freshness of stored food.

Symptoms of a bad Temperature Sensor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperature 
• The appliance running continuously or more frequently than normal
• Inaccurate temperature readings displayed  

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