The Refrigerator Fan Motor is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It circulates chilled air within the main cavity and fresh food compartment to maintain even cooling temperatures for foods. Proper airflow is critical for energy efficiency as well as preserving the freshness and longevity of stored items.

Causes of a bad fan motor include failure of the electrical components or motor bearings over many years of operation. Dust buildup may also slow airflow and result in overworking the motor.

Symptoms of a bad fan motor involve:

• Temperature fluctuations between sections of the refrigerator
• Frost or condensation building up quicker than expected
• Louder buzzing or grinding noises coming from inside the back wall

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

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. 

The Air Tower is an OEM component for GE side-by-side refrigerator models designed to distribute cold airflow across shelves and crisper bins. Strategically located in the fresh food compartment, it facilitates even temperature regulation within. Efficient airflow relies on an intact tower design.

Symptoms of a defective air tower include:  

• Warm spots or frost buildup noticed on certain shelves and walls   
• Fluctuating temperatures displayed on control panels
• Condensation or moisture issues in unaffected areas

Causes stem from common blockages within vent channels from food debris over time, wear of fan blade bearings reducing distribution power, or cracks in injection-molded tower walls.

Replacing with this genuine GE part restores optimum temperature balance throughout the refrigerator. Compatible for replacement fits Hotpoint, RCA, or Kenmore units seeking uniform chilling without dead zones developing. Regular cleaning helps but replacement maintains long-term efficiency.
 

This center track screw cover caps the exposed screw on the center track assembly to protect the screw head and give the track a finished appearance. It helps reduce debris buildup and prevents accidental snags on the screw head. What it does:

• Covers and protects the center track screw head from dirt, moisture, and surface wear
• Helps maintain a smooth surface on the track to reduce snagging or catching
• Restores the OEM appearance where the original cap is missing or damaged
• Small replacement part used with center track assemblies and trim pieces

• One center track screw cover (cap)

• Designed for simple push- or snap-fit installation over the exposed screw head
• Remove power to the appliance before accessing internal trim or track areas, and follow manufacturer safety guidance
• If screw or track is damaged, inspect and replace the underlying hardware before installing the cap
• Handle small parts carefully to avoid loss during installation

The Refrigerator Evaporator with Heater is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component cools the air within the freezer and fresh food compartments through vaporization and circulation. It also contains an internal heater to prevent condensation and frost formation.

Causes of a bad evaporator can include normal wear over time, damage from leaks, or issues with the heater component. 

Symptoms of a bad evaporator include:

• Inadequate or inconsistent cooling within compartments  
• Frost or condensation buildup that requires frequent defrosting
• High energy usage but inability to maintain proper temperatures
• Foreign or musty odors emanating from within the refrigerator

Replace this evaporator to restore optimal cooling performance, efficiency, and freshness preservation in your refrigerator. This GE OEM part is also compatible with later Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore refrigerator models.
 

This trough drain directs defrost water from the evaporator to the refrigerator drain system, helping prevent water buildup and puddling inside the freezer compartment. It's a direct-fit replacement for the damaged or cracked drain trough. What it does:

• Channels defrost and condensation water away from the evaporator area to the main drain
• Prevents ice buildup and water pooling that can lead to floor or compartment leaks
• Restores proper drain flow when original trough is cracked, warped, or clogged
• Works with the refrigerator's defrost cycle to keep the compartment dry
