Frigidaire Refrigerator Divider Or Deflector

This is the vertical flipper mullion assembly that mounts to one fresh-food door and pivots closed to seal the center gap when both refrigerator doors are shut, helping maintain proper temperature and energy efficiency.

• Creates the center seal between French-door refrigerator doors
• Helps prevent warm air infiltration and moisture/condensation in the fresh-food section
• Common failure signs include a loose or broken hinge, mullion not staying aligned, condensation at the door center, or doors not sealing properly
• May also be noted if doors pop open or temperature fluctuates in the refrigerator compartment

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove door bins to access mounting screws/clips
• Transfer any original covers or hardware if not part of the new assembly
• Verify proper hinge engagement so the mullion flips and seals smoothly before restoring power

This mullion assembly forms the front center divider of the refrigerator and includes an integrated anti-sweat heater. It helps keep the area where the door gaskets meet dry, supporting a clean look and a reliable, moisture-free seal.

• Provides the rigid center divider that the door gaskets seal against
• Built-in heater warms the divider to reduce sweating/condensation in humid conditions
• Helps limit air leaks that can lead to moisture, frost, or temperature fluctuations
• Common signs of trouble: persistent condensation on the center divider, visible cracks/warping, or poor gasket contact along the center

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove mounting fasteners, carefully release the assembly, and disconnect the wire harness (note routing/orientation)
• Position the new assembly, reconnect the harness securely, and reinstall fasteners without overtightening
• Verify doors close smoothly and gaskets contact evenly along the divider before restoring power

This refrigerator deflector is a molded guide that mounts inside the unit to direct internal airflow where it's needed. Replacing a cracked, warped, or missing deflector helps restore proper circulation for more consistent temperatures and performance.

• Channels airflow within the freezer/dispenser path to maintain even cooling
• Helps reduce frost or ice buildup caused by misdirected air
• Can address symptoms like warm spots, frost around vents, or rattling from loose parts
• Replace if broken, deformed, or missing

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove shelves/panels as needed to access the mounting location; keep track of screws/clips
• Install the new deflector in the same orientation; reuse existing hardware
• Reassemble and verify that vents/air passages are unobstructed

This ice container deflector attaches to the ice bucket assembly and guides cubes toward the dispenser chute. Replacing a cracked or missing deflector restores proper ice flow and helps keep ice from spilling inside the freezer during dispensing.

• Directs ice from the bucket into the dispenser chute/crusher path
• Helps maintain consistent dispensing and minimizes stray ice inside the freezer
• Replace if cracked, warped, or missing
• Symptoms include erratic dispensing, ice spilling or jamming, or a visibly damaged/missing guide on the ice bin

• Disconnect power before servicing; remove the ice bucket
• Position the new deflector in the original location; reuse existing screws/clips if applicable
• Ensure the curved face points toward the dispenser chute
• Reinstall the ice bucket, restore power, and test ice dispense

This replacement ice deflector guides ice from the ice maker/dispenser into the bin or chute to reduce spills and misdirected cubes. It restores proper ice flow and helps keep the dispenser area tidy. What it does:

• Directs ice from the ice maker or dispenser chute into the ice bin
• Helps prevent ice from falling outside the bin or jamming the dispenser
• Reduces spillage and misalignment of ice cubes during dispensing
• Restores intended ice flow after a cracked, warped, or missing deflector

• Basic snap-in or screw-in replacement—inspect mounting tabs before installation
• Power off the refrigerator (or dispenser) and remove ice/ice bin before working on the deflector
• Handle part gently to avoid breaking thin plastic tabs; replace any damaged fasteners

This molded plastic air deflector directs cold airflow inside the refrigerator/freezer to help maintain even temperatures and proper compartment circulation. It replaces broken or missing airflow guides to restore proper venting. What it does:

• Guides and directs cold air from the evaporator into the refrigerator/freezer compartments
• Helps reduce hot spots and uneven cooling when functioning correctly
• Commonly replaced if cracked, warped, or broken mounting tabs block airflow
• Can resolve symptoms like inconsistent temperatures, poor cooling in one compartment, or visible airflow leaks

• One air deflector

• Unplug the appliance before beginning any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Remove shelves or drawers as needed to access the deflector; handle plastic tabs gently to avoid breakage
• Install by aligning mounting tabs/clips and snapping or securing into place; do not force
• After installation, restore power and verify airflow and temperature performance
