This tapping plate secures the mullion/vertical trim on a refrigerator, restoring a solid mount and proper door alignment. It replaces a damaged or missing mounting plate to reduce trim movement and help maintain a tight door seal. What it does:

• Provides a screw-ready mounting surface for the refrigerator mullion/trim
• Helps keep the mullion firmly in place to prevent wobble or rattling
• Restores proper mullion alignment that can affect door fit and sealing
• Addresses symptoms like loose or shifting mullion trim and uneven door gaps

• Disconnect power and empty doors as needed before working on the mullion area
• Align plate with the mullion mounting area and secure with appropriate screws
• Use hand tools and wear gloves to protect hands from sharp edges

This lower hinge pin secures the refrigerator door to the cabinet, allowing the door to pivot smoothly and stay aligned. Replaces a worn or damaged hinge pin to restore proper door movement and closing. What it does:

• Acts as the pivot point for the refrigerator door, supporting door weight and rotation
• Helps keep the door aligned to prevent sagging, sticking, or uneven gaps
• Commonly replaced when the pin is bent, worn, or causing noisy/rough door movement
• Works with the lower hinge assembly to maintain a proper door seal and operation

• Installation requires removing the lower hinge or door; follow your model's service instructions
• Support the door while removing/installing hinge hardware to prevent injury or damage
• Use appropriate hand tools; avoid forcing parts or misaligning the hinge pin
• If any hinge housing or mounting hardware is damaged, replace those parts as well for safe operation

A small replacement push-cap that restores the look and function of a control or panel button. Use this plug button when a worn, torn, or missing cap makes controls hard to press or exposes the switch. What it does

• Covers and protects the underlying switch or actuator from dirt and moisture
• Restores a tactile surface for reliable button presses
• Improves appearance when the original cap is cracked, torn, or missing
• Prevents accidental contact with the switch mechanism

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Remove the control panel or trim per your model's service instructions to access the button area
• Press the plug onto the switch stem until fully seated; do not force or pry with metal tools
• If the switch underneath is damaged, replace the switch assembly rather than relying on the cap alone
