Kenmore Refrigerator 596.72013011 (59672013011, 596 72013011) Parts

This O-ring seal provides a watertight seal for the appliance's water path, helping prevent leaks and maintain proper operation. Use this exact replacement when the original ring is cracked, flattened, or worn. What it does:

• Creates a pressure-tight seal at a water connection to stop drips and leaks
• Keeps water contained inside hoses, valves or pump fittings
• Restores proper sealing when the original O-ring becomes brittle or deformed
• Helps prevent water damage to cabinetry and flooring from appliance leaks

• One O-ring seal

• Turn off power and water supply before beginning any repair
• Remove the old O-ring and clean mating surfaces of debris and buildup
• Inspect the groove or fitting for damage; replace the part if the mating surface is scored
• If needed, use a small amount of manufacturer-recommended lubricant to ease installation and protect the O-ring

This wire harness connects the freezer/fresh-food control assembly to the refrigerator's wiring, restoring proper signal and power routing so controls and sensors communicate reliably. Designed to replace a damaged or worn control harness. What it does:

• Routes power and signal between the freezer/fresh-food control board and connected components
• Restores communication to sensors, switches, and control circuits
• Common symptom: control errors, intermittent cooling, or non-responsive controls when harness is damaged
• Prevents intermittent connections caused by frayed wires, broken terminals, or loose plugs

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any repair
• Handle connectors and terminals carefully to avoid bending pins or causing additional damage
• Route harness along original wire paths and secure with existing clips or ties; avoid sharp edges and heat sources

A flat replacement shim that fills small gaps and realigns appliance components to restore proper fit and reduce vibration. Use it where a thin, precise spacer is needed for better part alignment and quieter operation. What it does:

• Provides a thin, stable spacer to correct minor misalignment between metal parts
• Helps reduce vibration or rubbing caused by uneven panels or mounts
• Restores correct clearance for seals, bearings, or mounting surfaces
• Useful when a worn or missing shim allows parts to sit unevenly

• Disconnect power before servicing; follow your appliance's service manual for disassembly
• Handle edges carefully — shims can be sharp
• Replace any additional shims or related fasteners shown in the model's parts diagram for best results

This OEM grease is a purpose-made appliance lubricant that reduces friction and protects moving parts for smoother operation and longer component life. Use where specified by the manufacturer for bearings, slides, or motor shafts. What it does:

• Lubricates gears, bearings, rollers and shafts to reduce wear and noise
• Helps prevent binding, seizing, and grinding on moving components
• Protects metal parts from corrosion where grease is specified
• Keeps parts moving smoothly under normal operating temperatures

• Disconnect power before servicing any appliance; follow manufacturer service instructions
• Apply sparingly to clean, dry surfaces; avoid over-greasing which can attract debris
• Wear gloves and wipe excess grease from surrounding areas to prevent staining

This small metal mounting clip secures the thermal fuse in place to maintain proper thermal contact and stable wiring. It helps keep the fuse positioned so the appliance can monitor temperature reliably and operate safely. What it does:

• Secures the thermal fuse to the appliance housing or duct to prevent movement
• Keeps the fuse in correct contact with temperature-sensing surfaces
• Helps prevent intermittent heating or thermal-sensor misreads caused by a loose fuse
• Useful when replacing a damaged or missing fuse retainer during fuse service

• One thermal fuse mounting clip

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Remove access panels per your model's service instructions to reach the fuse location
• Install clip in the same orientation as the original; use pliers if needed to seat it firmly
• Inspect the thermal fuse and wiring while installing; replace any damaged components per OEM guidance

This freezer light module housing secures and positions the freezer lamp assembly so the interior light stays protected and correctly aimed. It replaces a worn, cracked, or broken housing to restore proper lighting and fit. What it does:

• Holds the freezer light bulb and socket in place so the lamp illuminates the compartment
• Protects the lamp from moisture and physical damage
• Helps maintain correct light orientation for even interior lighting
• Commonly replaced when the housing cracks, breaks, or no longer secures the bulb

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before servicing the appliance.
• Handle the lamp/socket carefully; avoid forcing clips or tabs during removal and installation.
• If replacing the bulb or socket, verify correct bulb type separately—this listing is for the housing only.

This replacement shim is a thin positioning spacer used to align or level internal components for correct fit and operation. It helps restore proper clearances and reduce rubbing, noise, or misalignment-related issues. What it does:

• Provides precise spacing between parts to ensure correct alignment
• Helps eliminate rubbing or contact that can cause noise or wear
• Restores proper component clearance after service or reassembly
• Used when a missing, worn, or incorrect spacer leads to misalignment symptoms

• One replacement shim

• Inspect mating surfaces and clean debris before installing the shim
• Verify correct placement and orientation against the original shim or diagram
• Tighten fasteners to the manufacturer's specifications; do not overtighten
• Disconnect power and follow all safety precautions before servicing

Sealer for refrigerant line insulation.

This front pan is the exterior cabinet panel that forms the appliance's front surface, restoring appearance and protecting internal components from dust and debris. It provides a stable mounting surface for the door and control openings. What it does

• Replaces a dented, cracked or rusted front panel to restore the appliance's exterior and fit.
• Protects internal parts from dust, lint and moisture that can enter through a damaged front.
• Helps maintain proper door alignment and sealing when the original front is warped or bent.
• Restores mounting points used for the door, trim and control openings.

• One front pan

• Disconnect power (and water supply if applicable) before starting work.
• Basic hand tools required; installation typically involves removing the door, trim and associated fasteners.
• Keep original screws and brackets if they are undamaged; replace any stripped hardware.

This self-drilling screw secures appliance panels and components where a fastener must cut its own pilot hole. It provides a quick, reliable hold for repair or reassembly of trim, brackets, and internal fixtures. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, and small components without pre-drilling
• Helps stop loose or rattling trim and parts caused by missing or worn screws
• Restores proper alignment and secure mounting after repairs
• Works where sheet metal or thin substrates require self-tapping engagement

• One self-drilling screw

• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before starting repairs
• Use the correct size driver and steady pressure to avoid stripping the head
• Start straight and apply firm, even torque; avoid overtightening which can damage mounting surfaces
• Wear eye protection and handle small fasteners carefully to avoid loss or ingestion hazards
