Description

This damper assembly controls airflow between compartments to help maintain even refrigerator temperatures and proper cooling. It replaces a worn or broken damper to restore regulated cold-air flow and reduce temperature imbalance. What it does:

• Opens and closes to direct cold air where needed, regulating compartment temperatures
• Restores airflow control when the original damper is stuck, cracked, or broken
• Can stop symptoms like uneven cooling, temperature fluctuations, or weak air movement
• Works with the refrigerator's control system to modulate vent position as needed

What's included:

• One damper assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any service
• Access may require removing interior panels, the fresh-food evaporator cover, or a control housing
• Handle the damper fins and linkage carefully to avoid damage or misalignment
