This flat metal washer provides a durable spacer and load-distributing surface for a matching fastener, helping secure assemblies and reduce wear. It's a small but essential hardware piece for routine repairs and reassembly. What it does:

• Distributes fastening load to protect softer materials and prevent pull-through
• Creates a smooth bearing surface for nuts and bolts to seat evenly
• Helps reduce vibration and loosening in moving assemblies
• Commonly used on panels, brackets, and mounting hardware where a flush fit is needed

• One flat metal washer as shown

• Disconnect power and water (if applicable) and access the assembly before replacing hardware
• Use the matching bolt/nut size and washer ID/OD for correct fit; do not force oversized fasteners
• Hand-start fasteners to avoid cross-threading, then tighten to the equipment manufacturer's spec
• Keep small parts secure during disassembly to avoid loss or damage

Left side.

A replacement hanger basket that supports items inside the appliance so clothes or components stay organized and secure. Restores proper basket support and helps prevent sagging or shifting during operation. What it does:

• Holds and supports garments or items in the appliance basket area
• Helps maintain even load distribution to reduce rubbing or snagging
• Can resolve symptoms like a loose, tilted, or missing basket support
• Replaces worn or damaged hanger/basket hardware

• One hanger basket

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing parts
• Remove surrounding panels or components as needed for access
• Use basic hand tools; handle sharp edges carefully

This micro switch detects door or lid position and tells the appliance when the door is closed so cycles can start or safety interlocks stay engaged. It restores reliable door sensing and helps prevent operation with the door open. What it does:

• Acts as a position sensor that completes or breaks the control circuit when the door/lid is closed or opened
• Keeps the appliance from starting or continuing a cycle if the door is open (safety interlock)
• Common symptom fix: appliance won't start, stops mid-cycle, or shows door-related error codes
• Small electrical switch designed to mount at the door latch or frame and connect to the appliance wiring harness

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before attempting service
• Access may require removing panels, trim, or the door latch assembly; keep track of screws and fasteners
• Observe wiring orientation and connector positions; replace exactly as removed or tag wires

This condenser coil assembly removes heat from the refrigerant so your refrigerator can maintain proper cooling. Replacing a damaged or clogged condenser restores heat rejection and helps the compressor run more efficiently. What it does

• Transfers heat from the refrigerant to the surrounding air so the system can cool interior compartments
• Helps prevent the compressor from running continuously by allowing proper heat dissipation
• Commonly fails when fins are bent, clogged with debris, or corroded, causing reduced cooling performance
• Can cause the refrigerator to run hot, overheat at the rear, or cycle abnormally when compromised

• One condenser coil assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Replacement typically requires removal of lower rear access panels and panel fasteners; keep hardware for reinstallation
• Handle the coil carefully to avoid bending fins or damaging tubing

This water tank assembly with coiled tubing stores and channels refrigerator water for the dispenser/ice system, keeping water routed and ready for use. Replaces a damaged or leaking reservoir to restore proper water flow. What it does

• Holds and directs water from the supply line into the dispenser/ice system via integrated coiled tubing.
• Helps maintain correct water flow and routing inside the refrigerator.
• Commonly used when the tank leaks, cracks, or causes reduced/irregular water dispense.
• Designed to work with the fridge's internal water plumbing and fittings.

• Turn off power to the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before starting.
• Drain remaining water from lines to reduce spills; have towels handy.
• Inspect and reuse or replace associated seals and fittings as needed for a watertight connection.

This control box houses the refrigerator's electronic control components, protecting circuitry and connectors for reliable operation. Replacing a damaged control box restores a secure mounting point and proper enclosure for the control board. What it does:

• Restores secure electrical connections if the original housing is cracked or broken
• Can eliminate intermittent electrical contact or loose-fit symptoms related to a damaged enclosure

• One control box (electronic control housing)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Use care when removing panels to access the control area; keep screws and fasteners organized
• Handle the control board and connectors by the edges; avoid contact with circuitry and static-sensitive components

This replacement rear compressor base roller supports the refrigerator compressor on the cabinet rear base, helping keep the compressor properly seated and reducing wear from vibration and movement. What it does
