Parts for Hot Point CTF18CMD: Other Parts

The Evaporator Fan Blade is an OEM component for GE freezers and bottom-mount refrigerator designs. Located inside the freezer compartment, this fan blade spins to circulate cold air evenly throughout the storage space.

Causes of a faulty evaporator fan blade include natural fatigue from running year-round. Freezers exposed to humid environments may experience faster corrosion.

Symptoms include: 

• Abnormal sounds like knocking or clunking from inside the walls  
• cold spots developing in certain freezer areas
• Higher power bills from inefficient temperature regulation
• Frost or ice patches forming on evaporator coils

This part is also compatible with some brands like Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore.

CW, 2w, 2 1/4" spade terminals

This ice maker seal kit replaces worn or damaged gaskets that help seal and stabilize the ice maker assembly for reliable operation and to reduce leaks. Use it to restore a tight ice-maker-to-freezer fit. What it does:

• Replaces seals/gaskets that prevent water leaks around the ice maker
• Helps maintain proper ice maker alignment and operation
• Supports consistent ice production by ensuring proper water flow control

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice maker assembly to access and replace seals as needed
• Use common hand tools; avoid over-tightening fasteners that can deform seals
• Inspect surrounding mounting surfaces for damage, clean before installing new seals

This defrost timer control kit cycles the refrigerator's defrost mode to prevent excessive frost build-up and help maintain proper cooling. Replaces a worn or failed defrost timer to restore normal defrost sequencing. What it does:

• Advances the appliance between cooling and defrost cycles to clear evaporator frost
• Helps prevent heavy ice buildup that can reduce cooling efficiency
• Can stop repetitive compressor cycling caused by a stuck defrost timer
• Commonly used when the freezer is frosting over or temperatures are inconsistent

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning work to avoid shock
• Handle electrical connectors carefully; match and secure wiring exactly as removed
• Basic hand tools required; refer to the appliance service manual for model-specific guidance
