• Ensure the tube is routed without sharp bends or kinks and is securely seated at both ends

This heat exchanger suction line kit replaces a damaged or corroded suction line assembly to restore proper refrigerant flow and heat transfer in the cooling system. It helps maintain consistent compartment temperatures and system efficiency. What it does:

• Transfers heat from the refrigerant suction line so the compressor and evaporator operate correctly
• Replaces cracked, kinked, or corroded tubing that can cause refrigerant loss or reduced cooling
• Helps address symptoms such as warm or inconsistent temperatures, visible oil or residue at fittings, or abnormal frost/ice patterns
• Restores a sealed refrigerant path after tubing damage or when corrosion has compromised the line

• Intended for qualified service technicians only; system access requires certified refrigerant handling
• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing and follow all safety precautions
• Installation may require brazing, flare fittings, or specialty tools; verify leak-tight connections and pressure-test per OEM procedures
• Evacuate and recharge the refrigerant system to OEM specifications after installation

This hex head screw secures panels, brackets, and small components on appliances, restoring proper fit and stability. It's a direct replacement fastener when an original mounting screw is missing, loose, or damaged. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, trim, and internal components to prevent rattling or movement
• Replaces stripped, missing, or damaged mounting screws that cause loose parts or misalignment
• Restores reliable mechanical fastening so doors and panels sit flush and operate correctly
• Works as a general-purpose appliance mounting screw when original fasteners are worn

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair

This full refrigerator door replaces a damaged or worn outer door to restore the appliance's appearance and proper access to the fresh-food compartment. It provides a solid closure surface and helps maintain normal cooling performance when properly installed. What it does:

• Replaces a dented, cracked, or cosmetically damaged outer refrigerator door
• Restores proper sealing and alignment when used with an intact gasket and hinge hardware
• Provides the mounting surface for handles, trim, and door-mounted storage
• Helps prevent cold air loss from the fresh-food compartment when installed correctly

• Disconnect power and empty the door of food and removable bins before beginning
• Many doors require two people to safely lift and align during installation
• Retain and reuse original hinges, pins, and hardware unless the replacement explicitly includes them

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure the defrost timer assembly to the refrigerator control housing, restoring proper fastening and preventing the timer from shifting or vibrating during operation. What it does:

• Secures the defrost timer to the control housing so the timer stays in position.
• Prevents vibration or movement that can cause intermittent contact or noisy operation.
• Helps maintain reliable defrost cycle timing by keeping the timer properly aligned.
• Addresses symptoms such as a loose or missing fastener, rattling behind the control panel, or a timer that shifts when the door is opened.

• Unplug the appliance before starting work to prevent electrical shock.
• Access the control housing or timer bracket per your model's service instructions.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit; do not overtighten—stop when snug to avoid stripping.
• Retain removed hardware for reference and compare screw length/threads before installing.
