Parts for Frigidaire LRA157MT111: 03 - Recommended Spare Parts

This replacement air filter screens airborne particles before they enter the appliance. Installing a clean, intact filter helps maintain proper airflow and protect internal components so the unit can operate as designed. What it does:

• Traps dust and lint before they reach the fan and internal parts
• Helps maintain smooth, unobstructed airflow
• A clogged or torn filter can cause weak airflow or unusual noise
• Replace when the filter is missing, damaged, or will not stay seated

• 1 air filter

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Open the filter access or grille and remove the old filter
• Insert the new filter in the same orientation; ensure tabs/slots fully engage
• Do not operate the appliance without a filter installed

Color: gray. Measures about 2 inches wide by 3-1/2 inches deep.

This replacement power cord restores AC power to compatible refrigerators by replacing a damaged or worn supply lead. It provides a direct, safe power connection so the appliance can run reliably. What it does:

• Replaces a frayed, cut, or otherwise damaged power supply cord
• Restores consistent power when the appliance will not turn on or has intermittent power
• Maintains the appliance's grounding connection for safe operation
• Prevents electrical arcing from exposed wiring or compromised insulation

• One replacement power cord

• Disconnect the appliance from the power source before inspecting or replacing the cord
• Install with the proper strain relief and secure fasteners to prevent pinching or pull-out

This oven temperature sensor detects the internal temperature and sends readings to the range control so the oven can maintain accurate cooking temperatures. Replaces a failed or intermittent sensor to restore reliable temperature control. What it does:

• Senses oven cavity temperature and provides temperature data to the control board
• Helps the control maintain set bake/roast temperatures
• Common symptom: oven temperature is incorrect or fluctuates during cooking
• Common symptom: cook cycles take too long or oven does not reach set temperature
• Common symptom: oven displays a temperature sensor or sensor fault code

• One oven temperature sensor (1 each)

• Disconnect electrical power to the appliance before removing or installing the sensor
• Handle the sensor carefully to avoid damaging the probe or wiring and ensure proper connector seating
• Inspect wiring and connector for damage; replace if frayed or corroded

This electronic control board is the appliance's main PCB that manages functions and the user interface. Replacing a failed board can restore normal operation when the unit is unresponsive, erratic, or displaying control-related errors.

• Directs operation of key components based on user settings and sensor feedback
• Powers and communicates with the display/interface and control pads
• Coordinates timing through relays and interfaces with safety/protection circuits
• Common symptoms: no response to buttons, dead/blank display, unexpected cycling or beeping, control error codes, or visible damage on the old board

• Disconnect power before servicing and verify no voltage is present
• Use ESD precautions; handle the PCB by the edges and avoid flexing it
• Photograph/label connectors; transfer each to the same location on the new board, matching any jumpers or DIP-switch settings if present
• After installation, restore power and run the model's test/diagnostic or a cycle to confirm proper operation

A replacement motor start/run capacitor that helps the refrigerator's compressor and fan motors start and run more reliably. Restores proper motor operation when the original capacitor has failed or weakened. What it does:

• Provides the boost of electrical charge motors need to start and maintain proper running speed
• Commonly linked to symptoms such as a humming compressor, motors that won't start, or intermittent cooling
• Helps stabilize motor performance and reduce hard-starting that can strain components
• Used in refrigeration motor circuits that require a start/run capacitor

• One motor start/run capacitor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any service
• Capacitors can hold a charge—discharge safely
• Inspect mounting and wiring; replace using the same terminal connections and secure mounting

This evaporator coil circulates refrigerant inside the freezer compartment to absorb heat and enable cooling. Replacing a damaged or corroded evaporator restores proper cold-air production and helps the refrigerator maintain set temperatures. What it does

• Absorbs heat from the freezer compartment so the refrigeration system can remove it
• Allows refrigerant to evaporate and continue the cooling cycle
• Common symptom: freezer or refrigerator not reaching cold temperatures
• Common symptom: excessive frost or ice buildup on the evaporator area
• Common symptom: compressor runs continuously or cooling is uneven

• One evaporator coil

• Requires basic appliance servicing skills; sealed-system work may be required
• Disconnect power and empty the appliance before beginning any repair
• Handle the coil carefully to avoid bending fins or damaging tubing
• Verify system vacuum and leak-free operation after any sealed-system repair

This blower wheel is the rotating fan component that moves air through the appliance to maintain proper airflow and temperature control. Replacing a worn or damaged wheel restores efficient air movement for normal operation. What it does:

• Spins with the blower motor to circulate air across the evaporator or heat exchanger
• Restores proper airflow when the original wheel is cracked, broken, or missing fins
• Helps reduce unusual noise caused by a warped or imbalanced wheel
• Can improve cooling/heating performance tied to insufficient airflow

• One blower wheel

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove access panels carefully; watch for sharp edges
• Inspect the blower motor shaft and set screw/retaining clip; replace any worn fasteners
• Ensure the wheel is correctly seated and secured to avoid imbalance and noise

This replacement blade fan moves cold air across the evaporator to help maintain even temperatures inside the compartment. It restores proper airflow for more consistent cooling and helps reduce frost buildup when working with a good motor. What it does:

• Circulates air across the evaporator to distribute cold air through the compartment
• Restores airflow when a cracked, warped, or missing blade reduces cooling efficiency
• Helps reduce uneven temperatures and localized warm spots caused by poor airflow
• Can reduce abnormal noises caused by damaged or unbalanced blades

• One replacement blade fan

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the evaporator cover/panel to access the fan assembly per your model's service instructions
• Handle the replacement blade carefully to avoid bending the blades or contaminating the evaporator
• If the fan motor or mounting hardware is damaged, replace those parts as well for reliable operation

This screw kit is a replacement hardware pack used to restore secure fastening of appliance panels and components. It provides the standard mounting screws needed when original fasteners are missing, damaged, or worn. What it does:

• Replaces missing or stripped screws that hold panels, trim, or small assemblies in place
• Restores secure fit to reduce rattling, vibration, or loose parts
• Helps correct minor alignment issues caused by lost fasteners
• Useful when preparing for panel removal/reinstallation during service

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping screw heads.
• Tighten screws until snug; avoid overtightening to prevent damage.
• Follow OEM service instructions.
