Kenmore Refrigerator 795.78544803 (79578544803, 795 78544803) Parts

This joint assembly is the connector that joins two refrigerator water tubes to form a tight, leak-resistant seal. Replace it to stop leaks at a line coupling and restore reliable dispenser and icemaker water flow.

• Connects two plastic water lines within the refrigerator's water system
• Maintains a watertight seal to prevent drips and air intrusion
• Common fix for leaks at a coupling or tubing that won't stay seated
• Symptoms include slow/sputtering dispenser, small/no ice production, or visible seepage at the connector

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Dispense water to relieve line pressure
• Depress the connector collar to release the tubing; cut damaged tube ends square and fully insert tubing until it bottoms out
• Restore water and power, then check all connections for leaks

This capacitor stores and releases electrical energy to support the appliance's circuit during startup and operation. Replacing a weakened capacitor can restore reliable performance and reduce humming, hard starting, or stalling in the affected component.

• Provides a power boost at startup and helps stabilize voltage during operation
• Helps the connected component start promptly and operate smoothly under load
• Common failure signs include humming, slow or no start, or intermittent operation
• Contribute to overheating or a tripped breaker/fuse when the component tries to start

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance. Before handling, safely discharge the old capacitor using a proper resistor-rated tool.
• Photograph or note wire positions; move each lead to the same-labeled terminal on the new capacitor and ensure snug connections.
• Mount the capacitor securely in its bracket; keep terminals covered and clear of metal surfaces.

This holder is a small mounting bracket that secures a mating component in place inside the appliance. Replacing a cracked or missing holder restores a firm, rattle-free fit and proper alignment.

• Provides a stable mount for the designated part
• Prevents shifting and vibration that can cause noise or premature wear
• Common signs of failure: broken tabs, stress cracks, or the attached part sagging or falling out
• When damaged, the connected component may be loose, noisy, or misaligned

• Disconnect power; if working near water tubing, also shut off the water supply
• Note the original orientation and mounting points; take a photo before removal
• Reuse existing fasteners and avoid overtightening to prevent cracking the plastic
• Ensure the attached component is secure and clears any moving parts before restoring power
