Restore accurate cooling and responsive controls with this Electronic Control Board. It monitors sensors and user settings to manage your freezer's key operations so the unit reaches and maintains the temperature you choose.

• Regulates cooling by commanding the compressor and evaporator fan to maintain set temperature
• Interprets thermistor and keypad inputs to execute temperature changes
• Coordinates defrost timing and temperature alarm functions on applicable models
• Symptoms it may address: not cooling or overcooling, runs constantly or won't run, erratic/inaccurate temperature display, beeping alarm, unresponsive buttons or display

• Disconnect power before servicing; handle the board by its edges and use ESD protection
• Note/photograph wiring before removal; transfer any reusable mounting brackets or covers
• Ensure all connectors are fully seated and locked
• After installation, set your desired temperature and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize

Control panel touch pad for freezers with digital display and function buttons. Replaces cracked, unresponsive, or damaged control interfaces.

Start relay for refrigerator compressors that helps the compressor begin running at power-up. Replacing a failed relay can restore normal starting behavior and resolve common startup symptoms. What it does

• Provides the initial start current path to the compressor during startup.
• Allows the compressor to reach running speed, then drops out once the motor is running.
• Common symptoms a bad relay may cause: compressor clicking, humming without starting, intermittent cooling or frequent cycling.
• Installed as the electrical component used only on compatible compressor assemblies.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
• Access the relay at the compressor; remove and replace the relay only after confirming diagnostics.
• Dispose of the old electrical part per local regulations.

White porcelain touch-up paint for repairing chipped, scratched, or worn surfaces on ranges, ovens, and refrigerators. Restores appearance on exterior panels and trim. 2 oz. can.

Authentic freezer basket bumper that attaches to baskets to prevent sliding inside the freezer. Replace if broken, cracked, or missing to keep baskets stable.

Restores the finished edge on your refrigerator cabinet and hides gaps. Replaces cracked, broken, or missing corner trim for a cleaner appearance.

Refrigerator not cooling or running too warm? A failed compressor stops refrigerant circulation. This is an advanced repair requiring special tools.

This mounting cup installs in the freezer liner to create a secure attachment point for the ice maker or its bracket. It helps keep the assembly stable and properly aligned so the ice maker mounts firmly and operates reliably. What it does:

• Provides the receiving anchor for the ice maker/bracket mounting screw
• Helps hold the ice maker level and reduces movement or vibration
• A worn, stripped, or missing cup can prevent the screw from tightening
• Common signs include a loose or sagging ice maker, rattling, or difficulty keeping the ice maker aligned

• 1 mounting cup

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice maker to access the cup location
• Seat the cup fully into the liner opening, then reinstall the bracket/ice maker and mounting screw
• Do not overtighten; verify the ice maker sits level and clears the fill tube

Interior light not working? This light socket provides the electrical connection for your freezer bulb. Simple DIY fix restores compartment lighting.

13 oz. enamel spray paint in biscuit color for appliances. Restores scratched, chipped, or discolored surfaces on refrigerators, dishwashers, and more.

This micro switch detects door or lid position and tells the appliance when the door is closed so cycles can start or safety interlocks stay engaged. It restores reliable door sensing and helps prevent operation with the door open. What it does:

• Acts as a position sensor that completes or breaks the control circuit when the door/lid is closed or opened
• Keeps the appliance from starting or continuing a cycle if the door is open (safety interlock)
• Common symptom fix: appliance won't start, stops mid-cycle, or shows door-related error codes
• Small electrical switch designed to mount at the door latch or frame and connect to the appliance wiring harness

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before attempting service
• Access may require removing panels, trim, or the door latch assembly; keep track of screws and fasteners
• Observe wiring orientation and connector positions; replace exactly as removed or tag wires

This defrost heater melts frost and ice buildup on the evaporator so your freezer can run efficiently and maintain proper cooling. It's a direct replacement heater element used in frost control during automatic defrost cycles. What it does

• Heats the evaporator coil during the defrost cycle to remove frost and ice buildup.
• Helps restore normal airflow and cooling when frost is blocking the evaporator.
• Common symptom: visible ice buildup on evaporator or frost accumulation inside the freezer.
• Common symptom: reduced cooling performance or long run times due to iced coils.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Access the evaporator by removing the back panel inside the freezer; follow the OEM repair diagram.
• Handle the heating element carefully to avoid bending or damaging the coil; ensure proper routing and clip placement.
• After installation, restore power and test continuity of the heater with a multimeter if needed.

Freezer running constantly or not cooling properly? The condenser coil dissipates heat from the refrigerant system. Moderately difficult repair.

Threaded insert nut creates secure anchor point in thin metal or plastic panels. Replace worn, stripped, or missing insert nuts to properly mount covers.

Refrigerator not cooling or compressor won't start? This compressor kit with electrical components restores cooling. Requires HVAC certification.
