• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Replace one fastener at a time to maintain alignment

This is the drive gear for the ice maker module. It transfers motor power to the ejector/harvest mechanism so cubes release consistently; worn or stripped teeth can cause clicking, stalls, or little to no ice production.

• Transfers motor torque to rotate the ejector and complete the harvest cycle
• Replaces a cracked, stripped, or worn gear that prevents proper ice ejection
• Typical symptoms: no ice production, icemaker stuck mid-cycle, clicking or grinding from the module
• Helps restore reliable ice maker cycling

• Unplug the refrigerator before service; turn off the water supply if moving the icemaker
• Remove the icemaker assembly for access; note the original gear's orientation before removal
• Align the new gear with the shaft; do not force it—inspect mating parts for wear
• After reassembly, verify the ejector turns freely; restore power and run a test cycle

This ice crusher blade (#2) mounts in the freezer's ice bucket assembly. It helps break up cubes for the Crushed Ice setting and can restore smooth dispensing when the original blade becomes bent, dull, or broken.

• Mounts inside the ice bucket crusher to slice/crush cubes when Crushed Ice is selected
• Helps maintain consistent ice flow and size through the dispenser
• Wear or damage may lead to no crushed ice, only whole cubes dispensing, jamming, or grinding noises
• Visible bending, dull edges, or a missing blade are common failure signs

• Disconnect power and remove the ice bin from the freezer
• Disassemble the crusher housing to access the blades; note the order/orientation of blade #1 and blade #2 before removal
• Wear cut-resistant gloves—edges are sharp
• Reassemble in the same order, tighten fasteners, reinstall the bin, and test the dispenser

This clip mounts to the refrigerator liner and secures the crisper cover/slide rail so the drawer stays supported and glides properly. Replace a broken or missing clip to restore alignment and smooth operation of the crisper.

• Holds the crisper cover/slide rail firmly against the cabinet liner
• Supports the crisper drawer to prevent sagging or tilt
• Helps restore smooth opening and closing of the crisper drawer
• Common symptoms of failure: loose rail, drawer off-track, difficulty sliding, or a cracked/missing clip

• Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power before servicing
• Remove the crisper drawer and cover/glass to access the clip
• Release the old clip (snap tabs or screw), align and secure the new clip; reuse the original fastener if your model uses one
• Reinstall the cover and drawer; the drawer slides freely

This ice crusher blade (#3) fits inside the refrigerator's ice bin crusher stack. It helps break cubes into crushed ice when selected, restoring smooth, consistent crushed-ice dispensing if the original blade is bent, dull, or missing. What it does:

• Works within the ice bin's crusher assembly to fracture cubes into crushed ice
• Engages with the auger and spacers as part of the blade stack
• Worn or damaged blades can lead to only cubes dispensing, weak crushing, jams, or scraping noises
• Visible bending, chips, or rust are common signs it needs replacement

• One crusher blade (#3)

• Disconnect power and remove the ice bin before service
• Empty the bin and carefully disassemble the crusher stack; note the exact order and orientation of blades, spacers, and washers
• Wear cut-resistant gloves—blade edges are sharp
• Reassemble in the same sequence and verify the assembly turns freely before reinstalling the bin and restoring power

Replace a failed refrigerator control board to restore dependable operation. This electronic board supplies the logic and switching for the features it manages, helping eliminate intermittent or unresponsive behavior and returning the appliance to consistent, predictable performance.

• Interprets inputs from sensors and switches, then controls connected components through onboard relays
• Coordinates timing and operation of the functions this board manages
• Can correct erratic cycling or unexpected shutdown of controlled functions

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Use ESD protection; handle the board by the edges and avoid touching components
• Access location varies by model; transfer connectors one at a time to the new board and secure in the original mounting
• Restore power and allow the unit time to resume normal operation

This door hinge bearing fits the refrigerator door hinge and provides a smooth, low-friction pivot point. Replacing a worn bearing restores smoother door movement and helps maintain proper alignment and a reliable gasket seal. What it does:

• Provides a low-friction surface between the hinge pin and door

• Replace the bearing in the same orientation; reassemble hardware securely
• Reinstall the door and ensure smooth swing and full gasket contact around the perimeter

This small clip secures the crisper cover's slide so it stays aligned and operates smoothly. Replacing a broken or missing clip restores proper slide action and helps keep your crisper cover assembly functioning as designed.

• Holds the crisper cover slide in place and aligned with its track
• Helps the slide move smoothly without popping off or binding
• Common symptoms: slide is loose or falls out, won't stay in place, cracked/missing clip
• Visual damage or loss can leave the crisper drawer cover slide inoperable

• Disconnect power and remove food items for safe access
• Remove the crisper drawer and lift out the crisper cover assembly
• Release the damaged clip and snap the new clip into the cover/slide as oriented
• Reassemble and verify the slide moves freely end to end

This turntable roller assembly sits under the glass tray to support and guide it as it rotates. Replacing a worn or damaged ring helps restore smooth tray movement for more even heating and dependable microwave performance.

• Supports the glass tray and allows smooth, consistent rotation
• Helps prevent tray wobble, binding, or scraping noises
• Can address issues like the tray not turning or uneven cooking
• Replaces cracked, warped, or missing roller rings
