Kenmore Refrigerator 106.50252000 (10650252000, 106 50252000) Parts

This genuine OEM return spring restores proper return/tension for the appliance component it connects to, helping controls, latches or hinges snap back into place. Replacing a worn spring can stop sticking, sagging or failed return action. What it does:

• Provides tension to return a lever, latch or door component to its resting position
• Restores crisp return action when a control or hinge feels loose or fails to snap back
• Helps reduce rattling or intermittent contact caused by a weak or broken spring
• Functions quietly once replaced, improving normal operation of the affected mechanism

• Disconnect power and gas before servicing; follow appliance-specific safety instructions
• Springs can be under tension — use proper tools and caution to avoid injury or part damage
• Compare the old spring to the new one for correct length and end type before installation

Used to prevent over ice production in the ice dispensing bucket.

Rod retainer clip secures a support rod or shaft to keep moving parts aligned and stable during operation. Replacing a worn or broken clip prevents rattling, binding, or components falling out and helps restore proper mechanical function. What it does:

• Holds a support rod or shaft in place to maintain alignment of moving components.
• Prevents rods from sliding out or shifting, which can cause rattling, binding, or misalignment.
• Replace if the clip is bent, cracked, corroded, or no longer grips the rod securely.
• Common symptom: loose or misaligned parts, unusual noises, or components that detach during use.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing the appliance.
• Access may require removing panels, covers, or nearby components—follow the OEM service manual.
• Remove the old clip and carefully press or snap the replacement into place; avoid over-bending the clip.

This replacement screw secures panels, trim pieces and small assemblies so covers and components stay aligned and rattle-free. It's a simple, direct fastening part used when an original screw is missing or damaged. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, control housings and other small components to the appliance chassis
• Replaces missing, worn or stripped screws that cause loose panels or rattling noises
• Restores correct alignment of covers and trims after service or disassembly
• Provides a direct, hardware-level repair instead of temporary fixes

• Disconnect power (and gas, where applicable) and ensure the appliance is cool before starting.
• Use the correct screwdriver bit and turn until snug; do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads or damaging parts.
• Keep removed hardware for reference; replace like-for-like if threads or inserts are damaged.
• Wear eye protection and gloves when working on appliances.

This shelf stud secures refrigerator shelves or glass shelves to the side liner, restoring proper support and alignment for safe storage. Replace a broken or missing stud to stop shelves from tilting or slipping. What it does:

• Supports and anchors refrigerator shelves to the cabinet liner
• Keeps glass or wire shelves level and prevents sagging
• Replaces damaged, cracked, or missing shelf studs that allow shelves to tilt
• Helps restore secure shelf placement after impact or wear

• One shelf stud

• Designed for straightforward replacement; remove the shelf before installing
• Align stud with the shelf bracket or notch and press or snap into place as the model requires
• Use care to avoid cracking adjacent trim; do not force excessive pressure
• Disconnect power only if accessing electrical components—this part replacement typically does not require it

A retainer ring that secures components in place to prevent axial movement and maintain proper alignment. Replacing a worn or damaged ring helps stop rattling and shifting, restoring quieter, more reliable operation. What it does:

• Holds shafts, bearings or seals in position to prevent side-to-side movement
• Keeps mating parts aligned so assemblies run smoothly
• Common symptom of failure: rattling, grinding, wobbling or loosened parts
• Small, inexpensive part that prevents larger component misalignment or wear

• Disconnect power and water before servicing the appliance
• Access the affected assembly by removing the appropriate panel(s)
• Installation may require snap-ring/retaining-ring pliers or small hand tools

This is a flat plain washer used to distribute load and space hardware on appliance assemblies. It helps keep bolts and screws seated and reduces wear on mating surfaces for more secure fastener connections. What it does:

• Provides a flat bearing surface to spread clamp load and protect parts from fastener damage
• Maintains proper spacing and alignment for mounted components
• Helps prevent fastener loosening from vibration when used with the correct bolt or screw
• Commonly used on chassis, suspension, and bracket connections

• One plain flat washer

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing the appliance
• Replace only with the same washer size and thickness as the original for proper fit
• Tighten fasteners to secure but avoid over-torquing which can deform the washer

This molded air deflector directs cold freezer airflow around the icemaker assembly to help maintain consistent ice production and reduce partial fills. It's a simple replacement that restores proper air routing inside the freezer compartment. What it does:

• Guides cold air to and around the icemaker so the unit can cool evenly
• Helps prevent warm-air pockets that can cause small or misshapen ice
• Restores intended airflow after a cracked or missing deflector
• Passive part with no electrical components or adjustments

• One icemaker air deflector

• Basic snap- or screw-in replacement; inspect mounting tabs for damage before installing
• Turn off power to the refrigerator before accessing the icemaker area
• Handle plastic parts carefully to avoid cracking mounting clips

This is a replacement wire harness that restores electrical connections between components so your appliance powers and controls operate correctly. It provides the factory-style wiring needed for reliable signal and power routing. What it does

• Carries power and control signals between major components so circuits can operate as intended
• Commonly used when damaged, melted, cut, or corroded wires cause intermittent operation or loss of function
• Can resolve symptoms such as components not receiving power, control buttons or lights not responding, or erratic behavior due to open/shorted wiring
• Matches OEM routing and connector ends to maintain original fit and connections

• One complete wire harness assembly as shown

• Disconnect all power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting any repair
• Note wire routing and connector locations or take photos before removal to ensure correct reassembly
• Inspect connectors and mounting clips; replace any broken retainers to prevent chafing or strain
