Parts for Ge PSB42YSNBSS: Quick Chill Parts

This quick chill pan assembly circulates cold air across the refrigerator compartment to speed cooling of fresh food. It replaces a damaged or leaking pan to restore proper airflow and help maintain even temperatures. What it does:

• Collects and channels condensate while supporting the quick-chill airflow path
• Restores proper cold-air distribution when the original pan is cracked, warped, or blocked
• Can reduce frost or pooling symptoms caused by a damaged pan or misdirected drain flow
• Works with the refrigerator's evaporator/airflow system to help maintain consistent cooling

• Disconnect power before servicing; follow lockout/tagout procedures
• Installation may require removing interior panels, shelves, and trim for access
• Inspect adjoining seals, drain troughs, and clips; replace any damaged fasteners to ensure proper fit

The Damper Assembly is an OEM component specifically designed for GE refrigerators. This assembly is located within the fresh food compartment and functions to control airflow and temperature regulation. 

The damper works with the evaporator fan to carefully moderate circulating air, preventing cold spots and optimizing equal cooling. Consistent temperatures extend the shelf life of perishable goods. 

Causes of a faulty damper assembly can include failure of the plastic gears or axle that coordinate its movements over time. Improper air circulation disrupts the refrigerator's performance.

Symptoms include: 

• Formation of frost or ice buildup in problem areas  
• Inconsistent shelf temperatures from top to bottom
• Foods spoiling more quickly 

This replacement assembly from GE restores dependable temperature control. Upgrade today for continued fresh food preservation abilities matching OEM standards. It is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
 

This thaw heater is the evaporator defrost heating element that melts frost during the refrigerator's defrost cycle. Replacing a failed heater helps restore normal defrosting and reduce frost buildup that can restrict cooling. What it does:

• Heats the evaporator coil during the defrost cycle to melt accumulated ice
• Prevents excessive frost buildup that can block airflow and reduce cooling efficiency
• Common symptoms of a failing heater: heavy frost or ice on the evaporator/back wall, reduced cooling, or long compressor run times
• Works as part of the appliance's defrost system alongside the defrost thermostat and control

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Access typically requires removing interior panels and the evaporator cover; handle the evaporator and wiring carefully
• Inspect associated defrost components (thermostat, timer/control) if problems persist; replace only parts confirmed faulty

This cover protects and tidies the refrigerator water line area, keeping hoses routed and partially shielded for a cleaner look and reduced snag risk. It's a simple trim piece used where water lines exit or run along the cabinet. What it does

• Conceals and organizes exposed refrigerator water lines for a neater appearance
• Helps prevent hoses from catching or rubbing against other components
• Restores missing or damaged trim that leaves water lines exposed
• Works with factory routing to maintain intended hose positioning

• One water line cover/trim piece

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting work
• Access may require moving the refrigerator away from the wall or removing a rear/top trim panel
• Typically secures with clips or screws—retain hardware from the original part if possible

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This part monitors the temperature of the evaporator coil to ensure it remains within optimal operating limits. When the temperature gets too high, the defrost thermostat signals the defrost heater to activate, preventing ice buildup on the coils.

Common causes of failure include electrical malfunctions, wear and tear over time, or physical damage to the thermostat or its wiring.

Symptoms of a bad defrost thermostat include:

• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer
• The refrigerator running constantly or not maintaining the correct temperature
• Water leaks inside the refrigerator due to ice melting and refreezing

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