This plenum is the OEM-style airflow duct that channels heated air through the appliance, restoring proper airflow and helping the unit vent efficiently. It replaces a cracked or damaged plenum to reduce leaks and airflow loss. What it does

• Directs and channels heated air between the blower and the exhaust or heating cavity
• Restores proper airflow to help maintain expected heating and venting performance
• Helps stop air leaks that can cause longer cycle times or reduced drying/baking efficiency
• Replaces visibly cracked, warped, or damaged plenums that can cause unusual noises or odors

• One plenum

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before attempting service
• Inspect and replace any worn gaskets or seals to ensure an airtight connection

This damper is the refrigerator air inlet that controls airflow between compartments to help maintain even temperatures. Replaces a worn or stuck damper to restore proper cold-air distribution and reduce temperature imbalance. What it does:

• Regulates airflow from the freezer to the fresh-food compartment to help stabilize interior temperatures.
• Helps correct symptoms like uneven cooling, warm spots in the fridge, or overly cold freezer-to-fridge balance.
• Prevents over-working of the compressor by allowing proper air circulation when functioning.
• Can become stuck or fail to open/close, producing reduced airflow or unusual noises.

• One damper assembly.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing interior liners or control housing—handle panels and clips gently to avoid damage.
• Compare the new part to the removed component to fit before reinstalling panels.
