Kenmore Refrigerator 106.8650583 (1068650583, 106 8650583) Parts

Size: 1/4 inch.

Size: 8-32 x 1/2 inch.

This is a 8-15 x 2.00 in. hex washer head, self-locking screw used to secure appliance panels and components. It provides a durable, vibration-resistant fastener that helps keep parts aligned and stable. What it does:

• Fastens and secures panels, brackets, or assemblies to the appliance frame
• Self-locking design helps resist loosening from vibration or thermal cycling
• Hex washer head gives a larger bearing surface to prevent pull-through on thin materials
• Commonly replaced when screws are missing, stripped, or causing loose/rattling parts

• Use the correct driver/socket to avoid rounding the hex head
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-torquing which can strip threads or damage components
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before working inside the unit
• Replace any stripped or damaged mating hardware for secure fastening

This freezer door gasket seals the door to the cabinet to keep cold air in and humid air out. Replacing a worn gasket restores a proper seal, helping maintain temperature and reducing frost and condensation around the door.

• Creates a continuous perimeter seal between the freezer door and cabinet
• Helps stabilize freezer temperatures and limits warm-air leaks that can lead to frost/ice buildup
• Common failure signs: torn or hardened gasket, visible gaps, moisture or ice near the door
• Almond color to match compatible units

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Warm the new gasket in hot water or with low heat to relax folds, then start at the corners and work evenly around the door
• On screw-retained styles, loosen perimeter screws and tuck the gasket lip under the retainer; tighten evenly
• After installation, check seal with a dollar-bill test and allow up to 24 hours for the gasket to fully conform

This evaporator fan blade mounts on the freezer's fan motor and circulates cold air through the cabinet. Replacing a cracked, loose, or warped blade restores proper airflow for even cooling and reliable refrigerator performance.

• Circulates air across the evaporator coils to push chilled air throughout the compartments
• Helps maintain consistent temperatures and overall cooling efficiency
• Supports frost control by keeping air moving over the coils
• Typical failure signs: rattling/scraping noises, weak airflow, uneven cooling, or frost buildup

• Unplug the appliance before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the evaporator fan (commonly behind the rear freezer panel)
• Pull the old blade straight off the motor shaft; align and press the new blade on, matching the original orientation/position
• Hand-spin to confirm clearance; reassemble and restore power to test airflow

Color: white. Measures about 30 inches wide by 20 inches deep.

This wire assembly connects the capacitor to the appliance's motor or control, restoring a secure electrical path for reliable start/run operation. Replaces a damaged or worn harness to help resolve starting and intermittent power issues. What it does:

• Provides insulated wiring and terminals to link the capacitor to the motor or control
• Ensures a secure electrical connection for proper start/run signaling
• Can resolve symptoms such as failure to start, humming or intermittent motor starting
• Prevents shorts or arcing from frayed or damaged wiring when functioning correctly

• Always disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Capacitors can hold a dangerous charge — have the capacitor safely discharged before disconnecting wires
• Match connectors and routing to the original harness; secure wires away from moving parts and heat sources

This hole cover seals an access/opening in the refrigerator evaporator housing to help maintain proper airflow and prevent moisture or frost from entering the cabinet. A simple replacement that restores the evaporator enclosure's intended seal. What it does:

• Seals an opening in the evaporator housing to reduce air leaks and unwanted moisture entry
• Helps prevent excessive frost or ice buildup near the evaporator area
• Supports consistent cooling by keeping the evaporator cover intact
• Can stop interior water or debris from entering the evaporator cavity

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the evaporator cover or access panel as required to reach the opening
• Press or snap the cover into place until it seats securely; no special tools typically required
• If the cover is brittle or damaged, inspect surrounding mounting surfaces and replace as needed

This machine screw secures appliance panels and components for reliable operation and alignment. A simple replacement that restores proper fit and prevents rattles or loose parts. What it does

• Fastens panels, brackets, or components to restore secure attachment
• Stops squeaks, rattles, or vibration caused by loose fasteners
• Replaces worn, stripped, or missing screws to maintain safety and function
• Matches OEM threading and head style for correct fit when specified

• One machine screw

• Use the correct driver size to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; stop when snug to prevent damage to threads or parts
• Disconnect power and move the appliance to a safe, stable position before working near electrical components
• Ensure proper torque and consider thread engagement length

This screw anchor is a small plastic fastener that secures panels and trim on appliances, preventing screws from stripping or pulling out. It provides a reliable anchor point for screws where threaded material is thin or absent. What it does:

• Creates a secure mounting point for screws in sheet metal, plastic or thin panels
• Helps prevent screw looseness, stripping, and parts that shift or rattle
• Commonly used to hold trim, panels, or interior components in place
• Works with compatible screws to distribute load and stabilize attachments

• Use the correct screw size and length; anchors are made for specific screw diameters—do not force oversize screws
• Align anchor in the prepared hole before driving the screw to avoid cracking the anchor or surrounding material
• Hand-start screws until seated, then tighten gradually—do not overtighten to prevent stripping or damage
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before accessing internal panels
