General Electric Damper & Related

This damper foam assembly replaces the worn foam seal around the refrigerator air damper to help reduce air leakage and support consistent temperature control in the fresh-food compartment. It restores the damper's sealing surface for better airflow management. What it does:

• Replaces the foam seal mounted on the air damper assembly to reduce unwanted air transfer between compartments
• Helps maintain even temperatures by preventing conditioning air from bypassing the damper
• Can reduce frost buildup caused by uncontrolled airflow
• Improve cooling performance and reduce cycling caused by air leaks

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any service
• Remove interior panels or shelving as needed to access the damper housing; keep screws and fasteners organized
• Handle the foam gently to avoid tearing; align and seat the foam evenly against the damper housing
• After installation, restore power and verify the damper opens/closes and the compartment temperatures stabilize

This damper is the refrigerator air-flow control that opens and closes to direct cold air between compartments, helping maintain proper cooling balance. Replaces a worn or stuck damper to restore regulated airflow and more consistent temperatures. What it does:

• Controls the amount of cold air moved from the freezer into the refrigerator compartment.
• Opens and closes based on the fridge's temperature control signals to balance compartment temperatures.
• A faulty damper can cause uneven cooling, a warm fresh food section, or overcooling in one compartment.
• Works with the existing housing and linkage to modulate airflow as commanded by the control board.

• One damper assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electric shock.
• Remove interior panels or shelves as needed to access the damper; keep fasteners for reassembly.
• Handle plastic components gently to avoid cracking; test damper operation after reassembly.

This damper assembly controls airflow between refrigerator compartments to help maintain even temperatures. It replaces a worn or stuck damper to restore proper cold-air balance and improve cooling performance. What it does:

• Opens and closes to regulate cold-air flow from the freezer to the fresh-food section
• Can restore airflow when the refrigerator is warmer than the freezer or compartments are unevenly cooled
• Helps correct symptoms such as poor cooling, fluctuating temperatures, or a freezer that's much colder than the fridge
• Works with the refrigerator's temperature controls to maintain set temperatures

• One damper assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Locate the damper in the fresh-food section near the top or the freezer-to-fridge air duct; remove shelves or covers as needed for access
• Handle the actuator and linkage gently; ensure correct orientation and secure mounting when installing
• After installation, reconnect power and allow the refrigerator several hours to stabilize; verify airflow and temperature operation

This upper duct directs exhaust and airflow inside the appliance to help proper ventilation and heat management. It replaces a damaged or warped upper duct to restore correct internal airflow paths. What it does:

• Channels exhaust and internal airflow between the cooktop/vent area and the vent housing
• Restores proper airflow if the original duct is cracked, bent, or blocking ventilation
• Helps reduce unusual smells or cooking smoke reaching cabinetry by maintaining the exhaust path
• Works as a structural guide for adjacent panels and components in the vent area

• Follow the appliance service manual for disassembly steps and correct reinstallation order
• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Use appropriate hand tools; avoid overtightening fasteners that can crack the duct or mounting tabs

This non-return flap is a replacement vent flap that helps control airflow and prevent backflow into the appliance. It restores proper venting so the appliance exhausts air and steam where intended. What it does

• Acts as a one-way flap to allow exhaust air out while blocking air or debris from returning
• Helps reduce odors, moisture, and lint from entering internal compartments
• Supports proper airflow for consistent appliance performance
• Commonly replaced when the flap is cracked, broken, or no longer seals

• One non-return flap

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove minimal panels or access covers to reach the vent assembly; retain all fasteners
• Inspect surrounding seals and vent housing for damage before installing the new flap
