This part is a genuine OEM replacement evaporator intended for use with refrigerators. The evaporator works as a heat exchanger, which allows the refrigerator to be kept cool. This is an essential component of the appliance and should be immediately replaced if faulty.This part has been made by Whirlpool and has been sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is made out of high-quality, durable, non-corrosive materials to ensure the best possible durability. This evaporator is sold individually. It is intended for use with refrigerant models manufactured by Whirlpool, Maytag, Kitchenaid, Amana, Admiral, Magic Chef, and other brands.

This heater clamp secures a heating element in the correct position within the appliance. Proper support keeps the element stable so it operates quietly and melts frost as designed for consistent, reliable performance.

• Holds the heater firmly in place to maintain correct alignment
• Reduces movement and vibration that can cause noise or wear
• Helps promote even frost melt during defrost for steady cooling
• Symptoms of a damaged or missing clamp can include recurring frost/ice buildup, a heater out of position, or rattling from the freezer area

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the heater/evaporator by removing the freezer panel as applicable
• Note the original clamp orientation and routing before removal
• Use needle-nose pliers to install; avoid damaging evaporator fins and do not deform the heater—position it exactly as originally placed

A replacement drain pan that captures defrost and condensation water to keep it contained and away from the cabinet and floor. Restores the appliance's normal water-collection path and helps reduce leaks. What it does:

• Collects melting ice and condensation from the evaporator to prevent water from pooling under the appliance.
• Channels collected water toward the drain system so it evaporates or exits as designed.
• Stops common symptoms like puddles or moisture under the unit and musty odors caused by standing water.
• Fits under the evaporator/coil area to restore proper water management.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before service to avoid electrical hazards.
• Remove the required access panels or move the appliance per the manufacturer's guidance to reach the pan.
• Lift out the old pan carefully—it may contain standing water—and position the replacement so the drain outlet and routing match the OEM layout.
• After installation, restore power and check for proper water flow during a defrost cycle; inspect surrounding seals and tubing for proper seating.

This dampener cushions and stabilizes the washer tub during spin cycles to reduce vibration and noise for smoother operation. It replaces worn or damaged suspension dampeners to help restore proper tub balance and quieter performance. What it does:

• Absorbs and dampens tub movement during agitation and spin to reduce vibration and noise.
• Helps maintain proper tub alignment for more even spinning and less wobble.
• Commonly replaced when the washer rocks, thumps, or makes excessive noise during spin.
• Works with the washer's suspension system to protect other components from shock and wear.

• 1 dampener

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the washer cabinet or front panel; follow OEM service instructions.
• Inspect mounting studs and clips for wear; replace as needed to ensure a secure fit.

This damper heater is the heater element used with the refrigerator air-damper assembly to help prevent frost and condensation buildup around the damper. Replaces a failed heater to restore proper damper operation and airflow. What it does:

• Warms the damper area to reduce ice and condensation that can block the damper
• Helps ensure the fresh-food and freezer compartments share airflow as intended
• Commonly replaced when frost or ice accumulates near the damper or when the damper fails to open/close smoothly
• Works as part of the damper/air control system; does not include the full damper housing or actuators unless specified

• Disconnect power to the appliance before replacing this part to avoid shock or injury
• Access may require removing interior panels or the damper housing; follow OEM instructions for your model
• Inspect the damper housing and actuator for damage or ice buildup when replacing the heater
