Replacement slide restores smooth, reliable movement for a single appliance drawer or shelf. Replacing a worn or damaged slide can stop sticking, sagging, or misaligned travel and restore proper alignment. What it does:

• Guides and supports the drawer or shelf along its track for smooth opening and closing; symptoms: sticking, binding, or incomplete travel.
• Keeps the drawer aligned and prevents sagging or tilting; symptoms: drawer sits uneven or rubs against the cabinet.
• Replaces worn, cracked or broken slide hardware to reduce noise and catch/drag during use; symptoms: grinding, rattling, or sudden drops.
• Enables consistent load support and smoother operation after wear or accidental damage.

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance if work requires removing panels near electrical components; follow appliance safety guidance.
• Remove drawer or shelf and inspect mating rails and fasteners; replace damaged screws or clips before installing the slide.
• Use appropriate hand tools and avoid forcing parts; align slide evenly and test full travel before returning the drawer to service.

This replacement screw secures appliance components so brackets, shelves, trim, or panels stay firmly in place. Install a new screw when the original is missing, stripped, or corroded to restore a tight, rattle-free fit.

• Fastens brackets, panels, trim, or covers to the cabinet or liner
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce vibration and noise
• Direct replacement for a missing, rusted, or stripped fastener
• Use wherever your model's parts diagram specifies this screw

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water if working near water lines
• Match thread and length to the original location as shown in your model's parts diagram
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening (especially into plastic)
• Retain and transfer any original spacers or clips used with this fastener

Quantity of 1 clip.

This aluminum strap secures the defrost heater firmly against the evaporator coil to maintain proper contact during defrost. Correct contact improves heat transfer so frost melts evenly and helps prevent recurring ice buildup on the evaporator.

• Secures the defrost heater to the evaporator for proper contact and heat transfer
• Promotes complete, even defrosting across the evaporator coil
• Helps reduce repeat frost/ice accumulation caused by a shifted or loose heater
• Typical clues include a loose heater, uneven frost pattern, or rattling near the evaporator

• Disconnect power and allow ice to melt before accessing the evaporator
• Use care around sharp fins and fragile refrigerant tubing; do not puncture or deform the coil
• Position the heater per your model's parts diagram and tighten the strap for firm, even contact
• Verify wiring is routed clear of the fan and moving parts before reassembly

This refrigerator seal restores a tight barrier between internal components. Replacing a worn or damaged seal helps prevent air leaks and moisture intrusion, supporting proper airflow, stable temperatures, and reduced frost or condensation around the joint.

• Creates an air-tight barrier between mating surfaces
• Helps maintain correct airflow and temperature balance between compartments
• Reduces frost, condensation, and warm/cold spots near the sealed area
• Common signs of failure: visible gaps, loose/crumbled seal, rattling panel, moisture or frost at the joint

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove the related cover or housing to access the old seal
• Clean contact surfaces; install the new seal in the same orientation without stretching or pinching
• Reassemble and verify an even seal and normal airflow before returning to service

This bracket is the factory support used to mount a component securely inside your appliance. Replacing a damaged bracket restores proper alignment and reduces vibration, keeping the part stable so it operates as designed. What it does:

• Provides a rigid mounting point for the designated component
• Maintains correct alignment to help prevent rubbing, rattling, or noise
• Replaces a cracked, bent, or missing bracket to restore secure fit
• Typical signs include vibration, a loose or misaligned part, or visible damage

• 1 bracket

• Disconnect power before servicing

• Reuse original screws/fasteners and any spacers or grommets from the old bracket
• Mount in the original position and tighten fasteners evenly without overtightening

This electronic control board manages core cooling functions in your appliance, including compressor/fan operation and the automatic defrost cycle. Replacing a failing board can restore stable temperatures and more reliable, frost-free performance.

• Regulates compressor and evaporator fan operation to maintain the set temperature
• Controls and times the automatic defrost cycle to reduce frost buildup
• Interprets inputs from sensors and user controls to coordinate system responses
• Common symptoms of a failed board: inconsistent temperatures, continuous running or short cycling, heavy frost/ice on coils, or unresponsive/intermittent controls

• Disconnect power before servicing; handle the board with ESD precautions
• Note connector locations; transfer any mounting brackets or covers from the original as needed
• Seat all connectors fully and secure the board before restoring power
• After installation, monitor temperature and defrost operation

This mounting bracket secures internal components or panels to restore proper alignment and reduce vibration. A simple, direct replacement that helps stop rattling, sagging or loose panels caused by a cracked or bent bracket. What it does:

• Holds and supports a component or panel to the appliance cabinet, maintaining proper fit and alignment.
• Prevents movement and vibration that can cause noise or wear.
• Replaces cracked, bent or broken brackets that cause loose panels, misalignment or rattling.
• Restores secure attachment points so doors, drawers or control housings sit correctly.

• One mounting bracket

• Disconnect power before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury.
• Basic hand tools (screwdriver, nut driver) are typically required; retain original fasteners unless replacements are provided.
• Inspect surrounding parts and mounting holes for damage; replace any worn screws or clips.

This support is a small mounting bracket used inside the appliance to hold an interior component, such as a shelf or basket. Replacing a cracked or missing support restores a secure, level fit and helps prevent wobbling or dropping.

• Provides a stable mounting point for a shelf, basket, rail, or panel
• Keeps interior components aligned and level
• Common symptoms: shelf/basket tilts, won't seat, or falls; visible cracks or missing support
• Replace if broken, deformed, or worn to restore proper fit

• Disconnect power and clear the work area before starting
• Remove the affected shelf/basket/panel to access the mounting point
• Release the damaged support (snap tabs or remove screw), align, and install the new support
• Reinstall the component and verify it sits level and secure

This replacement tube restores a secure, leak-resistant fluid path in your refrigerator/freezer. Replacing a damaged or brittle tube helps prevent water where it shouldn't be and keeps the system flowing as designed.

• Provides a dedicated pathway for fluid movement within the appliance
• Helps prevent leaks caused by cracks, splits, or loose connections
• Replaces kinked or clogged tubing that can restrict flow
• Common symptoms include water leaking inside or under the unit and visible damage to the existing tube

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off the water supply before servicing
• Note the original routing and connection points to ensure proper reinstallation
• Transfer and reuse any original clamps, grommets, or fittings if not supplied with the part
