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 is a factory-style replacement screw used to secure appliance components. It restores proper fastening where the original screw is missing, stripped, or damaged so panels and assemblies stay firmly attached. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, or components to the appliance frame or assemblies
• Replaces missing or damaged mounting hardware that can cause rattles or loose parts
• Provides the correct fit and thread engagement for a secure connection
• Helps maintain appliance alignment and safe operation

• Use the matching screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten until snug; do not over-torque to prevent thread or part damage
• Turn off power and remove any access panels before working on electrical components

Foam seal tape creates airtight barriers around refrigerator components. Replace when worn, compressed, or damaged to restore proper sealing and efficiency.

Secures tubes and wiring in your refrigerator. Replace if clips are broken or connections are loose. Confirm fit with your model number.

Sliding basket for refrigerator storage compartments. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing. Installs in freezer or fresh food section.

Water valve cap for side-by-side refrigerators. Covers and protects the water inlet valve connection. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing.

Mounting bracket that secures the control rod to your refrigerator. Replace if the original bracket is cracked, broken, or missing to restore linkage.

Bearing plate for refrigerators. Provides structural support for rotating components. Replace if cracked, warped, or damaged to restore stability.

Bearing plate for side-by-side refrigerators. Mounts and supports rotating components. Replace if cracked, worn, or broken to restore stability.

Replacement mounting screw for refrigerators and ice makers. Secures internal components and panels. Order a new screw if original is stripped or missing.

Refrigerator not cooling or running too warm? A faulty thermostat prevents proper temperature regulation. This control cycles the compressor to maintain set temps.

Refrigerator not cooling properly? This heat exchanger kit improves cooling efficiency in the sealed system. Moderate difficulty repair for side-by-side models.

Ice maker not shutting off or making too much ice? A worn lever arm prevents proper shutoff. Simple replacement takes under an hour to restore function.
