• Stops working when motor windings or gears fail, causing no ice to dispense or intermittent dispensing
• Works with the dispenser drive and auger assembly to transfer ice from the bin to the chute

• One boot auger motor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Access typically requires removing the freezer/refrigerator door trim and dispenser housing; follow OEM service instructions
• Inspect related components (auger, coupler, wiring) and replace if damaged

The Icemaker is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to produce ice cubes by automatically filling the ice mold with water, freezing it, and then ejecting the ice into the ice bucket. This part ensures a steady supply of ice for your household needs.

Causes of a bad icemaker can include mechanical wear and tear, electrical failures, or issues with the water supply. Over time, the icemaker’s components can degrade, leading to inconsistent ice production or complete failure.

Symptoms of a bad icemaker include:

• No ice production
• Small, misshapen, or hollow ice cubes
• Ice maker not ejecting ice
• Unusual noises from the ice maker

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

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.

A stamped mounting plate that secures the compressor to the refrigerator cabinet, helping keep the compressor stable and reducing vibration during operation. Fits original-equipment compressor assemblies. What it does:

• Provides a secure mounting surface to fasten the compressor to the cabinet frame
• Dampens and reduces compressor vibration that can cause noise or movement
• Keeps the compressor properly aligned for reliable refrigerant line routing
• Helps prevent stress on compressor mounts and surrounding components

• One compressor mounting plate

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Support the compressor while removing and installing the plate to avoid strain on refrigerant lines
• Use the original mounting hardware when possible; replacement fasteners if needed

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It plays a crucial role in the refrigerator's cooling system by providing the necessary start and run voltage to the compressor. Without a properly functioning run capacitor, your refrigerator may struggle to maintain the desired temperature, leading to spoiled food and inefficient energy use.

Causes of a bad run capacitor include electrical surges, wear and tear over time, or overheating due to a malfunctioning refrigerator compressor or poor ventilation.

Symptoms of a bad Run Capacitor include:

• The refrigerator compressor fails to start.
• Unusual humming noises coming from the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator cycles on and off more frequently than normal.
• A noticeable increase in energy consumption as the refrigerator struggles to maintain the proper temperature.

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It serves as a crucial component in managing the defrost cycle of the refrigerator, ensuring that frost buildup is regularly melted away from the evaporator coils. This timer periodically switches the refrigerator between cooling and defrost mode, helping to maintain efficient operation and prevent overcooling or excessive ice accumulation.

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Timer include:

• Frost building up more than usual in the freezer compartment.
• The refrigerator or freezer sections becoming too warm due to prolonged defrost cycles.
• The refrigerator not transitioning out of defrost mode, leading to spoiled food due to inadequate cooling.

Causes of a bad defrost timer can include mechanical wear from continuous use, electrical failures that impede the timer’s operation, or simply aging components that no longer function reliably.

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

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It regulates the temperature of the defrost cycle by sensing the temperature of the evaporator coils and signaling the defrost heater to turn on or off. This helps prevent ice buildup on the coils, ensuring efficient cooling and proper refrigerator operation.

You should replace this defrost thermostat if it fails to regulate the defrost cycle correctly. Common causes of a bad thermostat include electrical failures, wear and tear from regular use, or damage from temperature fluctuations.

Symptoms of a bad defrost thermostat include:

• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer
• Refrigerator not maintaining the correct temperature
• Defrost cycle not activating
• Water leaking inside the refrigerator

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

The Solenoid Valve Kit is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This kit includes the solenoid valve, which is responsible for regulating the flow of refrigerant in the cooling system.

Causes of a bad solenoid valve kit include electrical malfunctions, physical damage, refrigerant leaks, or general wear and tear over time.

Symptoms of a faulty solenoid valve kit:

• Refrigerator not cooling properly or not maintaining consistent temperatures
• Compressor running constantly or cycling too frequently
• Frost buildup or ice accumulation in the freezer compartment

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