Kenmore Refrigerator 363.68852899 (36368852899, 363 68852899) Parts

This screw secures panels and components on compatible GE appliances to restore proper fit and reduce vibration. Use it to replace a lost or stripped fastener and keep covers and brackets held firmly in place. What it does:

• Fastens access panels, trim pieces, or internal brackets to maintain proper alignment
• Stops rattling or vibration caused by missing or loose screws
• Restores secure mounting after repair or parts replacement
• Works where the appliance requires a short sheet-metal or machine screw for fastening

• Disconnect power to the appliance before removing panels or performing repairs.
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Hand-start the screw to ensure proper threading; tighten until snug but avoid over-torquing.

The R134 Drier is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component plays a critical role in the refrigeration system by removing moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant, ensuring efficient cooling and preventing damage to other parts of the system. It helps maintain the purity and effectiveness of the refrigerant as it cycles through the system.

You should replace the R134 drier if it becomes clogged or damaged. Common causes of a bad drier include wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or contamination from other failing components in the refrigeration system.

Symptoms of a bad R134 drier include:

• Reduced cooling efficiency
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• Unusual noises from the refrigeration system
• Increased energy consumption
• Refrigerator not maintaining the set temperature

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This compressor overload protects the refrigerator's compressor by interrupting power when it overheats or draws excessive current. Replacing a weak or failed overload can stop repeated click/no-start symptoms and help restore normal cooling performance.

• Opens the circuit to protect the compressor during overheat or over-current conditions
• Automatically resets after cooling to prevent sustained damage
• Symptoms include: compressor won't start, rapid clicking from the compressor area, starts then stops, and a warm refrigerator/freezer
• Helps prevent motor and wiring damage caused by repeated overload events

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear appropriate PPE
• Access the rear machine compartment and remove the compressor/start device cover
• Note wire positions; pull the old overload straight off the compressor terminal and push the new one on fully seated; reconnect wiring and covers
• If the overload trips again after replacement, further diagnosis of the start relay, run capacitor, or compressor may be required

Includes 12 washers.

This push-button plug insulates and seals a control panel push-button, helping keep the button stable and protecting the switch from moisture and debris. Fits where a small plastic button bushing or insulator is needed on the control panel. What it does:

• Provides an insulating bushing for a control panel push-button or switch
• Helps hold the button aligned and reduces wobble or uneven operation
• Shields the switch contacts from moisture and dirt that can cause intermittent operation
• Commonly replaced when the button is loose, damaged, cracked, or missing

• Disconnect power to the appliance before removing the control panel or working near electrical components
• Remove the control panel or trim; use appropriate tools to avoid cracking surrounding plastic
• Install the plug gently; do not force or use excessive heat
