Kenmore Refrigerator 596.79522012 (59679522012, 596 79522012) Parts

Replaces cracked or broken refrigerator light covers. Protects bulb and shields components from moisture. Slides into place with mounting tabs. Verify fit.

Rear roller that helps move your refrigerator smoothly. Replace if broken, cracked, or wobbling to restore easy mobility. Confirm fit by model number.

Right-hand mounting adapter bracket secures end caps, trim, or shelf assemblies to your refrigerator cabinet wall. Replace if cracked, broken, or worn.

The shut-off arm is the lever that tells the ice maker when to stop and start making ice. Replace a bent, missing, or jammed arm to restore proper ice production control and prevent bin overfilling. What it does:

• Lowers to allow ice production; raises to stop cycles when the bin is full (down = on, up = off)
• Helps prevent overfilling, spills, and auger jams
• Common symptoms: ice maker won't stop making ice, no ice when the arm is stuck up, inconsistent ice production from misalignment
• Restores proper ice level sensing when the original lever is damaged or missing

• One shut-off arm

• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing
• Remove the ice bin to access the ice maker
• Seat the arm's pivot ends fully in the ice maker head; avoid bending the lever
• The arm moves freely up/down and clears the bin before restoring power

Cross-support brace that reinforces the crisper cover on 36-inch models. Replace if broken, missing, or cracked to prevent cover sagging and keep bins aligned.

Secures the crisper cover to the refrigerator liner for smooth drawer operation. Replace if cracked or missing to restore level support. Verify fit.

This replacement screw secures specified refrigerator components—such as covers, brackets, and internal panels—so they stay properly mounted. Replace a missing, stripped, or corroded fastener to restore a tight, rattle-free fit and reliable operation.

• Provides the correct fastener for locations identified in your model's parts diagram
• Helps prevent looseness, vibration, and rattling of panels or brackets
• Replace if the head is stripped, threads are worn, or the screw is missing
• Symptoms can include loose parts, gaps, or noises from movement

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off water if working near the ice maker or dispenser
• Match length and type to the original; follow your model's parts diagram for placement
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without over-torquing, especially into plastic
• Keep track of screw positions; do not mix different screw lengths or styles

Seals refrigerator or freezer door to prevent air leaks and maintain temperature. Replace if torn, deformed, or door won't close tightly. Confirm fit.

This replacement shaft is the mechanical link that transmits rotation and keeps aligned parts moving together inside your appliance. Replacing a worn or stripped shaft restores smooth, reliable operation of the connected mechanism. What it does:

• Transfers motor or gear torque to the mated component
• Maintains alignment and support within the assembly
• Helps ensure smooth engagement of gears, levers, or augers
• Common symptoms of a failed shaft: connected part won't turn or slips, intermittent operation, grinding/clicking noises, or visible wobble/play at the interface

• 1 shaft

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water supply if applicable
• Note the original orientation and take photos to aid reassembly
• Inspect mating gears/bushings for wear and replace if needed to prevent rapid re-failure
• Align any flats/splines and seat the shaft without forcing; tighten fasteners to manufacturer guidance

Protective seal grommet for hoses, tubes, or wires passing through refrigerator cabinet. Replaces cracked, worn, or missing grommets to prevent leaks.

Left-hand adapter bracket secures freezer drawer rails in bottom-mount refrigerators. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing to restore proper alignment.

Refrigerator not cooling or freezer icing up? A faulty compressor may be the cause. This part is the heart of your cooling system, requiring expertise.

White door stop that limits how far your refrigerator door swings open. Replace if broken, cracked, or missing to prevent door overextension and damage.

Replacement roller axle support shaft for refrigerators. Installs to support rotating assemblies. Replace when worn, damaged, or causing wobble.

Replacement door hinge assembly that secures and supports your refrigerator door. Restores smooth pivoting when the original is cracked, worn, or broken.

Ice stripper removes ice cubes from the ice maker mold so the dispenser or storage bin fills properly. Replacing a worn or broken stripper helps the ice maker eject cubes cleanly and reduces ice jams or stuck cubes. What it does:

• Pushes or guides harvested cubes out of the ice mold into the bin during the ice maker's harvest cycle.
• Prevents cubes from sticking in the mold; a damaged stripper can cause incomplete ejection or leftover ice in the mold.
• Works with the ice maker's ejector mechanism to maintain consistent cube release and storage.
• A faulty or broken stripper may lead to noisy operation, partial fills, or visible ice build-up in the mold.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Remove the ice maker or access panel per the manufacturer's instructions to reach the stripper; keep small parts and screws organized.
• Inspect the ice mold and surrounding components for damage or ice build-up; clear ice before installing the new stripper.
• After installation, restore power and run a test harvest cycle to ensure proper cube ejection.
