General Electric Refrigerator Bumper, Bushing, Grommet Parts

The Fan Motor Grommet is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. This small but essential component serves as a seal and insulator around the area where the fan motor shaft protrudes from the appliance body.

Causes of needing to replace the fan motor grommet can include normal wear and tear over time, exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture, or physical damage due to impact or improper installation.

Symptoms of a faulty or missing grommet include:

• Air leaks or drafts around the fan motor area
• Condensation buildup or frost formation near the motor shaft
• Increased noise or vibration from the fan motor assembly
• Reduced cooling efficiency due to air leakage

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

The Evaporator Fan Grommet is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component serves as a cushion and stabilizer for the evaporator fan motor, reducing vibrations and noise while ensuring the fan operates smoothly. It helps to secure the fan motor in place, maintaining proper airflow and efficient cooling within the refrigerator.

Common causes of a bad grommet include wear and tear from constant use, damage from excessive vibrations, or degradation of the material over time.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan grommet include:

• Increased noise or rattling sounds coming from the fan area
• Vibrations felt within the refrigerator
• The evaporator fan motor becoming loose or misaligned
• Reduced cooling efficiency due to improper fan operation

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

The Slide Bearing is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This small but crucial component is typically located on the rails of refrigerator drawers, allowing them to slide in and out smoothly without sticking or jamming. The slide bearing helps reduce friction between the drawer and the frame, protecting the refrigerator's structure from wear and tear while ensuring a quieter, more efficient operation. 

Symptoms of a failing slide bearing include:

• Drawers becoming difficult to open or close
• Squeaking noises during drawer movement
• Increased resistance or jerking when pulling out the refrigerator drawers

Causes of slide bearing deterioration typically involve accumulation of food particles or debris, general wear from frequent use, or inadequate lubrication leading to increased friction and eventual wear out.

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

The Fan Motor Grommet is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It is a small but essential component that helps to seal and insulate the area around the fan motor, preventing air leaks and maintaining optimal cooling efficiency.

Causes of a damaged or worn-out fan motor grommet can include prolonged use, exposure to extreme temperatures, or physical damage from improper handling or installation.

Symptoms of a bad fan motor grommet include:

• Reduced cooling performance
• Increased energy consumption
• Frost buildup in the freezer compartment
• Unusual noises coming from the fan area

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

The Lid Bumper is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to provide cushioning and protection for the refrigerator lid, preventing damage and ensuring smooth, quiet closing. 

Causes of a bad Lid Bumper can include deterioration over time due to frequent use, exposure to temperature variations, or damage from accidental impacts. A worn or damaged bumper may no longer provide adequate cushioning, leading to potential damage to the lid or the refrigerator itself.

Symptoms of a bad Lid Bumper include:

• The refrigerator lid closing too hard
• Unusual noises when closing the lid
• Visible wear or cracks on the bumper

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

The Solenoid Valve Kit is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This kit includes the solenoid valve, which is responsible for regulating the flow of refrigerant in the cooling system.

Causes of a bad solenoid valve kit include electrical malfunctions, physical damage, refrigerant leaks, or general wear and tear over time.

Symptoms of a faulty solenoid valve kit:

• Refrigerator not cooling properly or not maintaining consistent temperatures
• Compressor running constantly or cycling too frequently
• Frost buildup or ice accumulation in the freezer compartment

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

The Ice Maker Fill Tube Grommet is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This grommet creates a seal between the ice maker fill tube and the refrigerator, preventing leaks and ensuring that water is properly directed into the ice maker during the filling process.

Causes of a bad grommet can include regular wear and tear, damage from exposure to freezing and thawing cycles, or degradation from exposure to water and moisture.  

Symptoms of a bad ice maker fill tube grommet include:

• Water leaks around the ice maker fill tube area
• Ice maker not producing ice properly
• Visible cracks or deformation in the grommet
• Water pooling inside or around the refrigerator

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

This fan-mount grommet fits the evaporator or condenser fan assembly to isolate vibration and keep the motor aligned. Replacing a worn grommet can quiet rattles and prevent the fan blade from rubbing the housing. What it does:
