The Light Bulb (40W) is an OEM component for GE refrigerators. As an essential task lamp, it illuminates the interior of the refrigerator and freezer compartments. 

All light bulbs will eventually burn out with consistent use over many years. Vibration during compressor cycles can also potentially disrupt bulb filaments faster. 

Symptoms of a burnt out refrigerator light bulb include:

• Dim or no light illuminating inside refrigerator shelves  
• Shadows and dark spots making it difficult to find items
• Higher utility costs from leaving the door open to see inside

This bulb is also compatible with refrigerators from brands like Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. 

The Terminal Block Kit is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire stoves. It includes all the necessary terminals needed to ensure connections are securely made in the stove's electrical system. As a distribution point, the terminal block facilitates connections between internal stove components and external power.  

Causes of a faulty terminal block can include worn terminals that no longer grip wires firmly, or compromised insulation that allows shorts over time. Without proper connections, stove functions may be disrupted.

Symptoms of a bad terminal block include:

• Intermittent or complete burner/oven failures  
• Buzzing or humming electrical noises
• Tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses
• Visible damage or corrosion on terminal connections

It is compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore branded models as well.

The Oven Safety Valve is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire gas ranges. This valve controls gas flow to the oven burner.

Causes of a faulty oven safety valve can include wear of sealing surfaces due to prolonged heating and cooling during cooking cycles. Exposure to food or liquid residues over time may also affect valve function.

Symptoms of a bad oven safety valve include:

• The oven not heating up despite the igniter working correctly
• A smell of gas indicates a leak or uncontrolled release
• Inconsistent oven temperatures or heating patterns
• The oven failed to maintain the set temperature

This Frigidaire OEM replacement part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and some Kenmore models.

The Bottom Door Trim is an OEM part for GE ranges. It serves as a finishing touch, providing a seamless transition between the bottom of the oven door and the base or kick plate area.

• Missing sections of trim 
• Loose or misaligned trim 
• Faded or discolored trim material

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

The Infinite Control Switch is an OEM replacement part for GE electric ranges. It controls the heat output of the surface burners.

Causes of a faulty switch can include failures in the circuitry from extended and repetitive use over time. Exposure to liquid splatters or spills can also impact component wiring. 

Symptoms of a bad infinite control switch include:

• Unresponsive or incorrectly functioning control buttons/dials
• Inability to turn on desired cooking elements  
• Erratic temperature regulation and heating performance
• Repeated resetting or power intermittence issues

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

The 6-inch Drip Pan is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges. This drip pan sits beneath the heating element on the stovetop, catching spills, drips, and food debris that occur during cooking.  

Causes of a bad drip pan can include corrosion from prolonged exposure to moisture, heat damage from the heating elements, or physical damage from heavy cookware. 

Symptoms of a bad drip pan include:

• Rust or corrosion on the pan's surface
• Warping or bending of the pan
• Difficulty in cleaning due to burnt-on residue
• Visible holes or damage that allows spills to reach the underlying surface

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The GE spark module kit is an OEM replacement part for GE stoves and ranges. It generates the spark needed to ignite the gas burners. The kit includes the spark module and associated wiring harness. When the burner control knob is turned to the "ignite" position, the spark module receives a signal and activates. It then produces an electrical spark that ignites the gas as it flows from the burner orifice, allowing the burner to light.

Over time, spark modules can fail due to electrical issues, wear and tear from frequent use, or exposure to moisture. A malfunctioning spark module can disrupt the ignition process, making it difficult to light the burners.

Symptoms of a bad spark module include:

• Burners not igniting
• No clicking sound when turning the burner knob
• Intermittent sparking
• Only some burners igniting

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

The Rear Drawer Glide is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges and ovens. This part is mounted on the rear end of the oven drawer, facilitating a smooth glide when the drawer is opened and closed. It ensures the stability and alignment of the drawer, preventing it from tilting or sticking during use.  

Causes of a bad Rear Drawer Glide can include physical wear and tear from regular use, accidental damage, or degradation of the material over time. Regular inspection and maintenance can help identify issues early and extend the life of the glide.

Symptoms of a bad Rear Drawer Glide include:

• The oven drawer sticking or jamming when opened or closed
• The drawer sagging or not closing properly
• Unusual noises coming from the drawer due to misalignment
• Difficulty in smoothly operating the drawer

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Range Overlay is an OEM part compatible with Frigidaire ranges. The overlay covers the control board and labels the button on the board.

Causes of a bad overlay can be normal wear over time with heavy use of the range, exposure to heat and impacts, or warping from temperature fluctuations around the cooking elements.

Symptoms of a faulty overlay include:

• Cracks or breaks appearing in the material
• Loose, sagging, or misaligned fitment on the front of the range
• Gaps that compromise the seal around cooking surfaces
• Discoloration or other appearance issues affecting the look

It is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and some Kenmore range models.

• Frost or ice build-up on the evaporator coils
• Refrigerator or freezer not cooling properly
• Water leakage inside the refrigerator
• Long defrost cycles or constant running of the refrigerator

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Right Door Hinge is an OEM part for GE ovens and allows the oven door opens and closes smoothly and securely. The hinge facilitates easy access to the oven's interior, contributing to a user-friendly cooking experience.

Over time, the right door hinge can wear out or become damaged due to frequent use and the constant stress of holding the door's weight. Causes of a bad hinge include metal fatigue, rust, and physical impact.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Right Door Hinge include:

• The oven door feels loose or wobbly when opened or closed.
• Difficulty in fully closing the oven door, which may affect the oven's ability to maintain temperature.
• A noticeable squeaking or grinding noise during the door's operation.
• Visible wear or damage to the hinge itself.

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

The infinite switch is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool cooktops. Located inside the panel it helps monitor temperature and functions through sensing heating elements and bake cycles. Precise cooking depends on its calibrated feedback.
