- Helps maintain a secure fit and reduce rattles or buzzing
- Restores alignment when an original fastener is missing or damaged
- Common signs include loose or vibrating panels, a stripped screw head, or a screw that won't tighten

- Unplug the refrigerator and shut off water supply if working near ice/water components
