This condenser fan gasket seals the condenser fan housing to the refrigerator cabinet, helping direct airflow and reduce vibration and noise. Replacing a worn gasket restores proper airflow path and helps keep debris and dust away from the fan area. What it does:

• Creates a tight seal between the condenser fan housing and cabinet to maintain correct airflow.
• Reduces fan vibration and associated noise by cushioning the fan housing.
• Helps keep dust, lint, and debris out of the condenser/fan area to support efficient cooling.
• Common symptoms: rattling or rubbing noises near the condenser fan, visible gaps or deterioration of the gasket, or excessive debris buildup around the fan.

• One condenser fan gasket

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting work to avoid shock or injury.
• Remove the access panel or toe kick to reach the condenser fan; some disassembly of the fan housing may be required.
• Handle sharp sheet-metal edges carefully and use proper tools; wear gloves and eye protection.
• Verify correct orientation and seating of the gasket before reassembling panels; replace if torn, flattened, or brittle.

This compressor grommet cushions and isolates the compressor mounting to reduce vibration and noise, helping components sit securely and preventing metal-to-metal contact. Fits the compressor mounting boss as a direct replacement part. What it does:

• Absorbs compressor vibration to help reduce rattling and operational noise
• Keeps the compressor mounted securely to prevent movement during operation
• Provides a buffer between the compressor and chassis to reduce wear on mounting points
• Helps maintain proper alignment of compressor mounting hardware

• One compressor grommet

• Always unplug the appliance and disconnect power before servicing
• Support the compressor before removing mounting hardware to avoid strain or damage
• Replace grommets one at a time with the correct size and orientation for proper fit
• Inspect adjacent mounts and hardware; replace if cracked, worn, or corroded

The R134 Drier is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component plays a critical role in the refrigeration system by removing moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant, ensuring efficient cooling and preventing damage to other parts of the system. It helps maintain the purity and effectiveness of the refrigerant as it cycles through the system.

You should replace the R134 drier if it becomes clogged or damaged. Common causes of a bad drier include wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or contamination from other failing components in the refrigeration system.

Symptoms of a bad R134 drier include:

• Reduced cooling efficiency
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• Unusual noises from the refrigeration system
• Increased energy consumption
• Refrigerator not maintaining the set temperature

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

The Defrost Timer is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This part manages the defrost cycle of the fridge and freezer compartments, ensuring that the evaporator coils do not build up excessive frost. 

This cycling is crucial for maintaining optimal temperatures for food preservation and energy efficiency. Over time, the defrost timer can malfunction due to wear, electrical issues, or a buildup of dust and debris, leading to poor performance or failure.

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Timer include:

• Frost buildup in the freezer compartment
• The refrigerator or freezer is not maintaining the set temperature
• The fridge or freezer sections are too warm
• The defrost cycle does not activate, leading to reduced cooling efficiency

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

This screw tap is a single sheet-metal/self-threading fastener used to secure appliance panels and small components. It provides a reliable hold where a standard nut or pre-tapped hole is not available. What it does:

• Forms or cuts mating threads as it is driven into thin metal or plastic panels
• Secures trim pieces, brackets, and small assemblies to the appliance frame
• Helps stop rattling or loose panels caused by missing or damaged fasteners
• Works in repair situations where replacing a tapped insert isn't practical

• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Drive slowly and straight; stop if resistance changes to avoid cracking plastic
• Do not overtighten — excessive torque can strip formed threads
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures when working near electrical components
