Parts for Lg 51099: Machine Compartment Parts

Replace your refrigerator's rear handle if it's cracked, broken, or missing. This structural support handle mounts to the back panel of your unit.

Protective cover for the PTC relay in your side-by-side refrigerator. Replace this cap if it's cracked, broken, or missing to protect the relay component.

Wire connector for refrigerator electrical systems. Replaces cracked, broken, or corroded connectors that cause loose wire connections. Secure fit.

Fix a refrigerator that won't cool, has display errors, or stops running with this main control board. Moderate difficulty repair that restores full function.

Power cord that connects your refrigerator to the wall outlet. Replace if cord is frayed, damaged, or has exposed wiring for safe electrical connection.

This noise damper reduces vibration and rattling sounds from refrigerant lines in your refrigerator. It cushions the copper tubing against the cabinet to prevent metal-on-metal contact that creates annoying noises. Install this damper if your refrigerator makes clicking, rattling, or vibrating sounds, especially when the compressor cycles on and off.

Refrigerator not cooling or making unusual noises? This compressor pipe joint connects sealed system components. Professional installation recommended.

Uneven cooling or warm spots in your refrigerator? This evaporator fan air guide restores proper airflow for consistent temperatures throughout compartments.

This drip tray is the replacement pan that collects defrost and condensate water beneath the refrigerator, helping keep floor and cabinet areas dry. It restores the appliance's normal water drainage path. What it does:

• Catches defrost and condensate water from the freezer/refrigerator evaporator
• Directs collected water to the evaporator/heat source or drain area to allow evaporation
• Helps stop water pooling under or around the appliance that can cause floor damage
• Fits into the cabinet under the unit and works with existing drain and mounting features

• One drip tray

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any service
• Pull the appliance away from the wall and remove the kick plate or front access panel as needed to access the tray
• Replace the tray in the cabinet, ensuring it seats and aligns with existing clips, slots, or drain tube
• If you see additional damage (cracked supports, clogged drain tube), inspect and replace those parts separately

This motor start/run capacitor helps the appliance motor or compressor start and run more reliably, restoring proper motor performance and reducing symptoms caused by a weak or failed capacitor. What it does:

• Provides the momentary electrical boost motors or compressors need to start
• Helps maintain stable motor operation during run cycles
• Resolves symptoms like motors that hum but won't start, intermittent starting issues, or cycling problems
• Replaces a worn or failed capacitor to restore consistent performance

• One replacement capacitor as shown

• Disconnect power before servicing and verify the appliance is de-energized
• Capacitors can hold charge — discharge safely before touching terminals
• Match terminal type and mounting location to the original part; do not force connections

This replacement fan assembly restores airflow in your appliance's cooling system to help maintain proper temperature and circulation. It's a direct-fit replacement designed to stop airflow-related issues and reduce noise from a failing fan. What it does:

• Circulates air across evaporator/condenser coils to support proper cooling and defrost cycles
• Replaces a worn or failed fan that can cause warm compartments or poor cooling
• Helps eliminate unusual humming, grinding, or rattling caused by a damaged fan blade or motor
• Supports even temperature distribution and can reduce frost buildup when fan operation is restored

• Disconnect power before starting; work on powered appliances can cause shock or injury
• Handle the fan blade carefully to avoid bending blades or damaging the motor
• Secure mounting fasteners to prevent vibration

This is a genuine replacement screw used to secure appliance panels and components. It restores proper fastening so panels and assemblies stay aligned and operate safely. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, and small assemblies to maintain structural integrity
• Replaces missing or stripped screws that cause rattling or loose parts
• Helps stop vibration-related noise when used in its original mounting locations
• Matches the OEM fit to ensure proper alignment and clearance

• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten until snug; do not overtighten to prevent thread or component damage
• Disconnect power to the appliance before working on electrical components
• Replace all matching fasteners for even fit

This is a small retainer clip that secures the compressor in place at the base of the refrigerator. It helps prevent the compressor from shifting or vibrating excessively during operation. Replace this clip if your refrigerator produces unusual rattling or vibrating noises from the back, or if the compressor appears loose or has shifted from its mounting position.

Refrigerator and freezer stopped cooling but lights work? This compressor set assembly restores cooling when the motor fails. Advanced DIY repair.

Replacement screw for securing panels, brackets, and internal components. Restores tight fit and proper alignment when original hardware is stripped or missing.

Vibration-isolating grommet that mounts between the compressor and chassis. Replace if cracked, worn, or missing to restore proper cushioning.

This condenser fan motor assembly is located near the compressor at the bottom or rear of the refrigerator and circulates air over the condenser coils to dissipate heat. It helps the refrigerator maintain proper cooling temperatures efficiently. Replace this motor if the refrigerator is running warm, the compressor is overheating, or you no longer hear the fan running when the compressor is on.

Drier assembly for refrigerators. Installs in the sealed refrigerant system to remove moisture and contaminants. Replace if damaged or worn during repair.

The Rear Evaporator Motor Grommet is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It's designed to secure and cushion the evaporator motor, ensuring it remains in place and operates quietly. This grommet plays a crucial role in minimizing vibrations and noise from the motor, which can otherwise lead to a disruptive refrigerator operation.

Causes of a bad Rear Evaporator Motor Grommet can result from deterioration due to cooling and thawing cycles in the refrigerator. Physical damage during cleaning or servicing may cause a loose motor fit.  

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Rear Evaporator Motor Grommet include:

• Unusual noises or vibrations from the back of the refrigerator.
• The evaporator motor shifting out of place, which can affect cooling efficiency.
• Increased wear on the evaporator motor due to lack of proper cushioning and support.

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.
