This rivet is a metal fastener used to permanently secure panels, brackets, or internal components in your appliance. Replacing a damaged or missing rivet restores a tight fit and helps prevent vibration, rattles, and looseness.

• Permanently joins thin metal parts where screws or nuts aren't used
• Maintains alignment and structural integrity of housings and frames
• Helpful when panels or components are loose, rattling, or won't stay secured
• Direct replacement for a worn, broken, corroded, or drilled-out factory rivet

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water (as applicable) before servicing
• Support the part being fastened; drill out the old rivet head if needed
• A hand riveter/rivet tool may be required to set the new rivet
• Wear eye and hand protection during drilling/riveting

This #8-32 x 3/8 screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and assemblies. Replace a missing or stripped fastener to keep parts tight and aligned, reduce vibration, and restore proper fit in compatible refrigerators and freezers.

• Machine-thread fastener sized #8-32, 3/8-inch length
• Secures control housings, trims, covers, and support brackets per model design
• Replaces missing, worn, or corroded screws that cause loose or rattling parts
• Helps maintain alignment and stability after service

• Unplug the appliance; shut off water if applicable
• Match thread size to the original and start by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Use the correct driver; do not overtighten, especially into plastic
• Verify component alignment and operation after fastening

• Thread size: #8-32
• Length: 3/8 inch

This control box wiring harness routes power and signals between the appliance control board and other components to restore reliable control operation and electrical connectivity. It helps resolve intermittent controls and lost function caused by damaged wiring. What it does:

• Connects the control board to switches, sensors and motors to enable normal control functions.
• Replaces damaged or frayed wiring that can cause intermittent operation or unresponsive controls.
• Addresses symptoms such as control panel not responding, random shutdowns, or error codes tied to wiring faults.
• Restores proper signal and power routing when connector damage or wire breaks interrupt circuits.

• Disconnect all power to the appliance before beginning any service.
• Compare the new harness to the original and follow factory connector positions and routing to avoid pin miswiring or chafing.
• Handle connectors gently and ensure all terminals fully seat; inspect mating connectors for damage before reconnecting.

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

• Provides a rolling support under the compressor to keep it aligned and off the cabinet floor
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling that can occur from a loose or worn compressor mount
• Prevents compressor body from dragging or scraping the cabinet base
• Commonly replaced when the roller is cracked, worn flat, missing, or causing noise

• Support or secure the compressor and cabinet before removing the old roller to avoid sudden movement
• Basic hand tools usually required; inspect mounting hardware and replace any damaged fasteners
• Do not attempt sealed-system repairs.

This rubber compressor mounting grommet cushions and isolates the compressor to reduce vibration and noise that can transfer to the cabinet. It helps maintain stable compressor positioning for quieter, smoother operation. What it does:

• Absorbs compressor vibration to lower noise and rattling
• Dampens movement that can cause abrasion or wear on mounting hardware
• Helps maintain proper alignment of the compressor assembly
• Common symptom: excessive buzzing, vibration, or rattling from the back of the appliance

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Support the compressor before removing mounts to prevent shifting or damage.
• Inspect surrounding mounts and hardware; replace any worn or damaged pieces.

A molded gasket that seals the evaporator coil cover to reduce air bypass and help direct cold air over the coils for more consistent cooling. Replaces a worn or damaged seal to help restore proper airflow and reduce frost buildup. What it does:

• Seals the evaporator coil cover to prevent warm air from bypassing the coil
• Helps maintain proper airflow for consistent cooling performance
• Reduces frost or ice buildup caused by air leaks around the coil cover
• Prevents condensation and dripping by keeping air where it belongs

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Thaw any frost/ice accumulation and remove the evaporator access cover per manufacturer instructions
• Clean mating surfaces, then press the seal into place ensuring a full, even fit around the cover

This plug seals an unused hole in an appliance cabinet or inner liner to help block drafts, pests and moisture. It restores a clean, finished appearance and prevents accidental debris entry where a fitting or fastener is not used. What it does:

• Seals unused openings in the appliance cabinet or liner to keep out dust, moisture and pests
• Helps prevent air leaks that can affect temperature stability in refrigerators and freezers
• Covers exposed holes left after removing or relocating components or fasteners
• Restores a finished look to access areas and reduces risk of small-item ingress

• One cabinet sealing plug

• Push the plug into the hole until fully seated; no special tools usually required
• Turn off and unplug the appliance before reaching into compartments or behind panels
• Inspect the hole and plug for correct fit; replace if cracked or deformed

• Prevents water pooling inside the freezer or refrigerator compartment
• Helps avoid leaks onto the floor when the original tube is cracked, pinched or disconnected
• Works with the appliance's drain trough and drain pan to maintain normal defrost drainage

• One drain tube

• Disconnect power before servicing and work with a cooled appliance to avoid burns
• Access may require removing interior panels or kickplate; handle panels and clips carefully
• Inspect and clear any debris or ice from the drain trough before installing the new tube
• Ensure the tube is routed without sharp bends or kinks and is securely seated at both ends
