This drain tube routes defrost and condensation water from the freezer compartment to the drain pan so moisture drains away cleanly and prevents pooling. Replaces a cracked, clogged or disconnected drain line. What it does:

• Channels defrost and condensation water out of the freezer to the drain system
• 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

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
• Match the screw to the original location and thread engagement; start by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Use the correct driver or socket for the hex head and tighten until snug—do not overtighten
• If the original hole or threads are damaged, repair or replace the mating hardware before installing the screw

This small mounting clip secures interior or cabinet components to keep panels and trim stable, helping reduce noise and maintain proper alignment. It's a simple replacement that restores a snug fit where the original clip has broken or worn. What it does:

• Holds panels, trim, or small components in place to prevent gaps or rattling
• Restores proper alignment of clipped parts after damage or wear
• Maintains a secure attachment point for adjacent parts during normal use
• Helps prevent moisture or debris from entering behind secured panels

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before accessing internal components
• Handle the clip and surrounding trim carefully to avoid cracking adjacent plastic
• Use basic hand tools as needed; do not force clips into place—align before snapping
• Replace any damaged mounting features for a secure fit

This evaporator fan cover protects and directs airflow around the evaporator fan to help maintain proper cooling and reduce fan noise. Replacing a damaged cover restores airflow and helps prevent fan interference from ice or debris. What it does:

• Channels cold air from the evaporator across the compartments for more even cooling.
• Shields the evaporator fan from ice buildup, frost, and loose insulation that can block airflow.
• Prevents fan blade contact with debris or wiring that can cause scraping, rattling, or excessive noise.
• Common symptoms: poor or uneven cooling, loud/scraping fan noise, visible cracks or broken mounts on the cover.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Remove the freezer/refrigerator access panel and any shelves; handle sharp sheet metal carefully.
• Inspect the fan blade and motor while the cover is off; clear any ice or debris and ensure the fan turns freely before reassembly.
• Ensure the replacement cover seats securely and any mounting tabs align to restore proper airflow direction.

Color: Black

This temperature control knob replaces a worn or broken fridge temperature dial so you can set the refrigerator temperature accurately. It restores a solid grip and clear pointer for reliable, easy adjustments. What it does:

• Fits onto the temperature control shaft to select colder or warmer settings
• Provides a clear pointer for precise temperature selection
• Replaces cracked, stripped, or missing knobs that make adjustments difficult
• Helps eliminate loose or slipping knob operation

• One temperature control knob

• Push-fit installation onto the control shaft; no special tools typically required
• Ensure power is off and remove food before working in the appliance for safety
• Inspect the control shaft for damage; replace the control if the shaft is stripped
