This washer is a small hardware spacer used in appliance assemblies to distribute load and maintain proper spacing under a fastener or rotating component. Replacing a worn or missing washer helps restore alignment, reduce noise, and keep parts secure.

• Distributes fastener load to protect mating surfaces
• Maintains spacing/alignment between components
• Can act as a thrust surface to reduce friction and wear
• Typical symptoms: looseness or wobble, scraping/squeaking noises, or parts that won't stay tight

• Disconnect power; shut off gas and/or water as applicable
• Note the order/orientation of washers, spacers, and clips during disassembly; take a photo for reference
• Inspect related parts (retainers, bushings) and replace if worn
• Tighten fasteners per manufacturer guidance; avoid overtightening and verify smooth operation after reassembly

This freezer door gasket creates a tight seal around the door to keep cold air in and humid air out. Replacing a worn gasket restores proper temperature control, reduces frost, and helps the door close and seal correctly.

• Seals the gap between the freezer door and cabinet to maintain cold temperatures
• Blocks warm, moist room air that can cause frost and ice buildup
• Helps prevent sweating/condensation around the door perimeter
• Addresses issues from torn, shrunken, brittle, or deformed gaskets that won't seal

• Disconnect power before servicing; clear items from the door
• Lay gasket flat and warm gently (hot water or low heat) to relax kinks before installation
• Loosen inner-liner screws/retainer, press gasket fully into the channel, then tighten screws evenly
• Perform a dollar-bill test around the perimeter; gently warm stiff areas to smooth and adjust door alignment if needed
