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. 
 

This DC evaporator fan motor moves air across the evaporator coils and circulates chilled air throughout the compartments. Replacing a failing motor restores proper airflow to help maintain even temperatures and reduce frost buildup. What it does

• Circulates air across the evaporator to distribute cold air through the refrigerator and freezer
• Helps maintain stable temperatures and supports proper defrost performance
• Common symptoms of a failing motor include no or weak airflow, fan not running, loud or intermittent fan noise, frost/ice on the rear panel, or freezer cold while fresh food is warm

• 1 DC evaporator fan motor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Remove shelves/drawers and the evaporator cover to access the fan area
• Note wire/connector orientation; transfer the fan blade and mounting hardware from the old motor if your model uses separate parts
• Ensure the blade spins freely with proper clearance before restoring power and verifying airflow

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.

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.
