Kenmore Refrigerator 106.9638682 (1069638682, 106 9638682) Parts

The center hinge pin is the pivot for the refrigerator door at the middle hinge. Replacing a worn or broken pin restores smooth door swing and proper alignment so the door closes and seals as designed. What it does:

• Acts as the pivot point for the door on the center hinge
• Helps maintain correct door alignment for consistent gasket contact
• Common symptoms: door sags or drags, uneven gaps, popping open, or squeaking/grinding at the hinge

• 1 center hinge pin

• Disconnect power; remove items from the door and support the door before starting
• Remove the center hinge cover and fasteners, then lift the door off the hinge
• Transfer any spacers/washers in their original order and install the new pin on the hinge bracket
• Reinstall and align the door; tighten fasteners and verify gasket seal

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

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 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 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

The Alumilastic Cement is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances, typically used in refrigerators and freezers. It serves as a thermal mastic compound, designed to provide a secure and heat-conductive bond between various components, such as evaporator coils and the interior walls of the appliance. 

Causes of a bad alumilastic cement can include drying out, cracking, or losing its adhesive properties over time. This can occur due to age, exposure to temperature fluctuations, or improper application. When the cement fails, it can lead to poor thermal conductivity and decreased cooling efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad alumilastic cement include:

• Reduced cooling performance
• Unusual noises from the cooling system
• Components becoming loose or detaching
• Increased energy consumption

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Roller Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This assembly includes the rollers that support and allow the refrigerator to be moved easily for cleaning or maintenance. Proper functioning rollers ensure smooth movement and stability of the appliance.

Causes of a bad roller assembly can include wear and tear from regular use, damage from moving the refrigerator improperly, or exposure to moisture leading to rust or corrosion.

Symptoms of a bad roller assembly include:

• Difficulty in moving the refrigerator
• Uneven or unstable placement of the appliance
• Unusual noises when moving the refrigerator

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
