General Electric Guard, Shield, Barrier Parts

This microwave waveguide cover shields the waveguide opening from grease and moisture while allowing microwave energy to enter the cavity. Replace a burned, cracked, or missing cover to stop arcing and help protect internal components.

• Shields the waveguide port from food splatter, steam, and debris
• Helps prevent arcing/sparking when the original cover is scorched or contaminated
• Maintains a clear path for microwave energy to support proper cooking performance
• Common signs: visible burns or charring, crackling/sparking from the wall opening, staining or food behind the cover

• Disconnect power before servicing; microwaves can retain high voltage—do not open the cabinet
• From inside the oven cavity, remove the screw or release the tabs securing the old cover; clean the surrounding area
• Position the new cover flush over the opening and secure it using the existing fastener(s)
• Never operate the microwave without the waveguide cover installed

Lower gasket shield protects and supports the bottom edge of the refrigerator/freezer door gasket for a tighter seal, reducing air leaks and moisture build-up while keeping the gasket aligned for reliable sealing. What it does:

• Protects and secures the lower edge of the door gasket to maintain proper gasket positioning and contact.
• Helps prevent cold air loss, frost buildup, and condensation caused by a misaligned or damaged lower gasket area.
• Provides a mounting surface that keeps the gasket from folding or pulling away at the bottom of the door.
• Replaces worn, cracked, or broken lower shield pieces that can cause visible gaps or sealing issues.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repairs and follow manufacturer service instructions.
• Remove the door gasket or lower trim per OEM steps to access the shield; keep fasteners and note orientation for reassembly.
• Do not force plastic parts; if removal is tight, work slowly to avoid cracking the cabinet or new shield.

This Cover-Stirrer protects the microwave's stirrer assembly and helps direct microwave energy for more even cooking. It's a direct-replacement plastic cover that restores proper operation and prevents debris from reaching the stirrer. What it does:

• Shields the stirrer/fan area from food splatter and debris to prevent damage.
• Helps maintain proper microwave energy distribution so food heats more evenly.
• Prevents contact with moving stirrer components for safer operation.
• A cracked or missing cover can lead to uneven heating, noise, or arcing.

• One Cover-Stirrer

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Remove the microwave's inner components or cavity access panels to reach the stirrer area.
• Align and seat the cover securely over the stirrer assembly; do not force or overtighten.
• If the existing cover is damaged, replace it; inspect surrounding components for damage or wear.

This ice maker guardrail secures and guides the ice maker/ice bin assembly so cubes dispense and stay aligned. It helps restore proper ice flow and prevents the ice bin from shifting or rubbing during harvest cycles. What it does:

• Holds the ice maker/ice bin in place to prevent movement and misalignment
• Guides ice cubes during ejection for smoother dispensing
• Reduces rubbing or contact that can cause noise or wear
• Helps maintain consistent ice delivery to the bin

• One ice maker guardrail/rail

• Disconnect power (and water supply if applicable) before beginning service
• Remove shelves or ice bin as needed for clear access; keep fasteners for reinstallation
• Install using existing mounting points and hardware; inspect surrounding parts for wear

This glass-halogen lamp replaces a failed interior oven/range light, restoring bright, clear illumination so you can see food and interior surfaces while cooking. Designed to match the OEM fit and function for compatible models. What it does:

• Provides bright halogen illumination for oven and range interiors
• Replaces lamps that are dim, flickering, or completely out
• Helps you monitor cooking progress and interior condition without opening the door
• Fits the OEM lamp socket and housing for a correct replacement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before replacing the lamp to avoid shock
• Allow the oven and old lamp to cool completely before handling
• Handle the new lamp with a clean cloth or gloves to avoid skin oils that can shorten bulb life

This tub shield protects the washer's inner drum edge from wear and keeps clothing and items from catching on the tub lip. It helps reduce fabric snags and prevents damage to the drum opening during normal use. What it does:

• Covers the exposed edge of the inner tub to prevent garments from catching or tearing
• Protects the tub rim from chips, gouges, and wear that can lead to leaks or rough spots
• Helps keep the drum seal area smooth for consistent door/tub engagement
• Commonly replaced when you see fabric snags, visible tub edge damage, or persistent abrasion marks

• One tub shield

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Typically installs around the inner tub lip; may require drum rotation and simple fasteners or clips
• Inspect the tub rim and door seal while replacing the shield; replace damaged seals as needed

This drain baffle guides defrost water into the refrigerator drain to prevent puddling and ice buildup, keeping the fresh food area dry and reducing odors. It fits into the freezer/refrigerator drain opening and channels meltwater safely away. What it does:

• Directs defrost and condensation water into the appliance drain to prevent pooling.
• Helps reduce ice formation and standing water inside the fresh food or freezer compartment.
• Minimizes odors by keeping water from collecting under shelves or liners.
• Works with the drain tube and heater to maintain proper drainage.

• Disconnect power before accessing interior panels or removing shelves.
• Remove shelves and the crisper/evaporator cover as needed to reach the drain area.
• Clear any ice or debris from the drain before installing the new baffle to ensure proper flow.
