Kenmore Refrigerator 795.71062010 (79571062010, 795 71062010) Parts

This damper assembly controls airflow between compartments to help maintain consistent refrigerator temperatures and restore proper air distribution. It replaces a damaged or stuck damper that interferes with cooling balance. What it does:

• Regulates fresh food/freezer airflow by opening and closing the inlet
• Helps correct uneven temperatures or reduced cooling caused by a stuck or broken damper
• Stops unwanted drafts when the damper is closed
• Operates with the fridge's control system to respond to temperature changes

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Access typically requires removing interior panels or shelving to reach the damper housing
• Handle plastic parts and wiring gently; avoid forcing connectors

This evaporator assembly circulates refrigerant and absorbs heat inside the freezer compartment to keep the refrigerator cool. Replacing a faulty evaporator restores proper cooling and helps prevent frost buildup and temperature issues. What it does:

• Contains the evaporator coil and housing that remove heat from the freezer air
• Enables the refrigeration cycle so the appliance reaches and holds set temperatures
• Affects frost control—worn or damaged units can lead to excessive ice buildup
• Commonly linked to symptoms like poor cooling, freezer frost, or frequent compressor runtime

• One evaporator assembly (coil and housing)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any service
• Remove interior panels and shelves to access the evaporator compartment
• Handle the assembly carefully; avoid bending fins or damaging connections

A small protective cap that covers and protects a component connection or opening from dirt and moisture, helping maintain proper function and prolong component life. Simple replacement when the original cap is cracked, missing, or worn. What it does:

• Covers exposed fittings, terminals, or openings to keep out debris and moisture
• Helps prevent leaks or contamination at the sealed connection
• Restores a secure fit when the original cap is cracked, split, or degraded
• Commonly used where a small, removable protective seal is required

• Inspect mating surface and surrounding gasket/seal before installing; replace other damaged parts as needed
• Press the cap firmly into place until fully seated; no special tools usually required
• Wear gloves and disconnect power or water supply if working near energized or pressurized components

This is a replacement mounting bolt used to secure appliance components and assemblies, restoring proper fit and reducing movement that can cause noise or misalignment. Use when a factory fastener is missing or damaged. What it does

• Fastens panels or internal components to maintain correct alignment and structural integrity.
• Prevents vibration-related noise and rubbing by holding parts securely in place.
• Restores secure connections after disassembly for service or repair.
• Helps eliminate intermittent movement that can lead to wear or leaks when a fastener is compromised.

• Use the correct bolt length and thread engagement for the application; do not force a mismatched fastener.
• Tighten to snug, manufacturer-specified torque when available; avoid overtightening to prevent stripping.
• Inspect surrounding parts (washers, nuts, threaded holes) and replace if worn or damaged.
• Disconnect power and follow all safety precautions before servicing the appliance.

The Water Valve Assembly is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It is essential for controlling the flow of water to the ice maker and the water dispenser. This solenoid-operated valve responds to signals from the refrigerator’s electronic control system to accurately manage the release of water, ensuring efficient operation and reliability.

Symptoms of a bad Water Valve Assembly include:

• The ice maker not producing ice or producing very small cubes
• The water dispenser not functioning or dispensing a trickle instead of a steady flow
• Water leaking from the refrigerator

Causes of a bad water valve assembly can stem from mineral deposits that clog the valve, electrical failures that impair the valve’s operation, or wear and tear from normal usage leading to leaks or malfunctions.

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

Note: Flow meter is not needed on all models, remove if necessary. Redesigned single valve replaces older dual solenoid valves. Wiring harness is included. Located behind the refrigerator.

The Water Filter Bypass is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It is used when you choose not to use a water filter in your refrigerator. This bypass plug allows water to flow directly to the dispenser and ice maker without being filtered, ensuring continuous operation even when a filter is not installed.

Causes of a bad water filter bypass can include damage to the bypass plug, clogging from debris, or wear and tear over time. If the bypass plug is not functioning properly, it can disrupt the water flow and lead to issues with the ice maker and water dispenser.

Symptoms of a bad water filter bypass include:

• Reduced water flow or no water flow to the dispenser
• Ice maker not producing ice
• Water leaks around the bypass plug area

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

The Door Gasket Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG refrigerators. As a sealing system, it surrounds the door perimeter maintaining a thermal barrier. Proper alignment and fit preserves energy efficiency.

Causes of malfunction involve deterioration of adhesive over extended compression/decompression cycles. Mineral deposits may also harden material compromising flexibility.

Symptoms of a faulty gasket assembly include:

• Cool air detectable leaking around door edges
• Condensation visible accumulating on seal
• Louder than normal seals sounds when closing door

This is an LG OEM part that is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

Note: 90 degree elbow coupler (Fits 1/4" diameter tubing on each end) For 5/16" elbow connector, order part# 4932JA3009B.

The Water Line Union is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. This component connects sections of the water line, ensuring a secure and leak-free passage of water to the refrigerator's icemaker and water dispenser. It is an elbow tube union connector, which connects two tubes at a 90-degree angle.

Causes of a bad water line union can include wear and tear from frequent use, damage from high water pressure, or deterioration due to mineral buildup and age. A compromised union can lead to water leaks and disruption in the water supply.

Symptoms of a bad Water Line Union include:

• Water leaks around the connection points
• Reduced water flow to the icemaker or water dispenser
• Puddles or moisture near the refrigerator
• Unusual noises from the water line

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

The Door Gasket Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG refrigerators. As a vital component of the refrigerator door, the gasket assembly helps to create an air-tight seal around the door opening. This prevents warm air from entering the interior compartment, maintaining consistent temperatures and preserving food freshness. 

The causes of a bad gasket assembly can include wear and tear over time, damage due to overtightening of the door, or compression of the gasket material from repeated opening and closing of the door. 

Symptoms of a bad gasket assembly include:

• Difficulty closing or improper alignment of the door 
• Warm air leaking into the interior refrigerator sections
• Higher energy costs from the compressor working overtime
• Loss of the "cooler" temperature feel and decreased freshness of foods stored inside

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore refrigerators.

This sub PCB assembly is an electronic control board used in select LG appliances. It manages signals and low-voltage power for a specific feature or module, helping restore normal operation when the original board becomes unresponsive or fails.

• Provides low-voltage control for the designated function or user interface
• Communicates with the main control to execute settings and cycles
• Helps resolve symptoms such as unresponsive controls, blank/flickering display, intermittent operation, or related error codes
• Supports reliable operation of the affected subsystem after replacement

• Disconnect power at the breaker; shut off gas/water if applicable
• Use ESD protection and handle the board by the edges
• Photograph wire locations; transfer connectors one at a time to avoid miswiring
• Follow the service sheet for any required option-code entry, reset, or diagnostic check after installation
