This solenoid actuator is the electromechanical device that moves a latch or linkage when energized, restoring the appliance's intended mechanical action. It provides a direct replacement to re-enable reliable actuation. What it does:

• Converts electrical signal into a mechanical push or pull to operate a latch, door, dispenser or linkage
• Commonly used where a timed or motor-driven movement is needed during a cycle
• Symptoms this part can cause: appliance fails to actuate a door, latch, dispenser or similar mechanism when called for
• Replacing a worn or failed actuator restores proper mechanical response to control signals

• One solenoid actuator

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning work to avoid shock or unintended actuation
• Remove any panels or trim as needed to access the actuator; note wire and mounting locations for reassembly
• Reconnect wiring and test the function on a short cycle after installation

This control rod bracket secures the control rod to the appliance, restoring proper linkage and part alignment for reliable operation. Designed to replace a worn or broken mounting bracket and stabilize control movement. What it does:

• Holds the control rod in place so levers and linkages operate smoothly
• Restores proper alignment when the rod is loose, bent, or detached
• Helps eliminate binding or intermittent actuator movement caused by a damaged bracket
• Supports consistent mechanical operation of the connected control components

• One control rod mounting bracket

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Remove any panels or covers as needed to access the bracket; keep fasteners organized for reassembly
• Inspect adjacent linkage and fasteners; replace any damaged clips or screws for a secure fit

This temperature control thermostat regulates refrigerator cooling by cycling the compressor and fans to maintain set temperatures. Replaces a faulty thermostat to restore proper temperature control and more consistent cooling. What it does

• Senses cabinet temperature and closes or opens the electrical circuit to run the compressor and cooling system
• Helps maintain steady temperatures so food stays properly chilled or frozen
• Commonly replaces a thermostat that causes the unit to run constantly, not run at all, or fail to reach set temperatures
• Works with the fridge's control assembly to respond to user temperature adjustments

• One temperature control thermostat

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Locate the thermostat behind the control knob or panel; refer to your model's service manual for exact access
• Handle the capillary tube and sensor bulb carefully to avoid kinks or damage
