Parts for Ge AKW08FAM1: 01 - Room Air Conditioner Parts

This wire harness protector shields appliance wiring from abrasion and heat to help prevent shorts and electrical damage. It replaces a worn or damaged protector to restore routing and basic insulation for the harness. What it does:

• Protects wiring from chafing, rubbing and contact with sharp edges
• Helps reduce risk of short circuits caused by exposed or frayed wires
• Can prevent heat damage where harnesses pass near hot components
• Installed when wiring shows visible wear, burning odor, or intermittent electrical faults

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing wiring
• Inspect adjacent wiring and connectors; replace any damaged wires or terminals
• Slide protector over the harness and position to cover exposed areas; secure with existing clips or wire ties as needed

This display board assembly is the electronic control panel that lights and operates the user interface on compatible GE refrigerators. Replacing a faulty display board restores on-screen status info and control responsiveness for dispenser and temperature settings. What it does:

• Powers and drives the front display and touch/selection controls on the fridge control panel.
• Sends user commands to the main control board so settings (temperature, modes) register and change.
• Common symptom: display is blank, partially lit, flickering, or shows incorrect characters.
• Common symptom: touch buttons or dispenser controls are unresponsive or erratic.
• Works alongside the main control board; it does not replace compressor or sensor functions.

• One display board assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the control panel to avoid shock or board damage.
• Handle the board by its edges and avoid static discharge; use an anti-static wrist strap if available.
• Installation typically requires removing the front control housing and unplugging a wiring harness; retain mounting screws for reassembly.

This main control board assembly replaces the refrigerator's electronic control module to restore and manage user controls and automatic functions. Designed to match the original OEM board for reliable operation and accurate command processing. What it does:

• Controls and coordinates temperature regulation, defrost cycles, and user-interface commands
• Manages compressor, fans, timers, and other automated functions driven by the fridge's control logic
• Resolves symptoms such as unresponsive controls, intermittent cooling, incorrect cycle behavior, or error codes tied to the main control
• Replaces a failed or damaged control board to return the appliance to normal electronic operation

• One main control board assembly

• High-level electrical repair; disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or damage
• Handle board by the edges and avoid static-sensitive contact; use ESD precautions when possible
• Verify connector seating and secure mounting; confirm door switches and sensors are connected correctly before restoring power

This left frame bar is a factory-style cabinet frame support that helps stabilize the appliance door and upper cabinet assembly. It restores correct alignment and solid mounting where the original frame bar is bent, cracked, or missing. What it does:

• Provides structural support for the left side of the appliance cabinet/frame
• Helps maintain proper door alignment and seal by keeping the frame rigid
• Reduces movement or rattling caused by damaged or loose frame components
• Supports attached trim and mounting points used by doors and panels

• Designed to replace the matching left-side frame bar
• Use appropriate hand tools; some panels or trim may need removal to access mounting fasteners
• Disconnect power and empty the appliance before starting any repair
• If mounting holes are stripped or additional damage is present, address those issues before reinstalling this part

This sealing shutter is the replacement shutter assembly that helps maintain a tight seal where installed, reducing drafts and moisture transfer for more consistent appliance performance. Use it to restore proper sealing and reduce temperature fluctuations. What it does:

• Forms a closing seal to block air and moisture at the shutter opening
• Helps prevent warm air infiltration that can cause frost or inefficient cooling
• Reduces odors and humidity transfer between compartments
• Restores proper operation when a cracked, warped or missing shutter allows drafts

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Basic hand tools may be required; handle plastic parts carefully to avoid damage
• Align and seat the shutter per the original mounting points; do not force parts

This installation support is a metal mounting bracket that helps secure and stabilize the appliance during installation for safer, more stable operation. It prevents unwanted movement and keeps the appliance aligned with surrounding cabinetry. What it does:

• Provides a secure attachment point to hold the appliance in place during and after installation
• Reduces shifting or rocking that can occur when using doors, drawers, or controls
• Helps maintain proper appliance alignment and fit against cabinets or countertops
• Can reduce rattling or vibration caused by an unsecured unit

• Disconnect power and follow all safety procedures before starting installation
• Use proper tools and fasteners as specified by the appliance manufacturer
• Install only in the locations and orientation shown in the manufacturer instructions or service manual

This flat washer provides a durable bearing surface for a fastener, helping secure assemblies and reduce wear between parts. It's a simple replacement that restores proper spacing and fastening where the original washer is worn or missing. What it does:

• Provides a stable bearing surface for bolts, screws, or shafts
• Helps maintain correct spacing and alignment of adjacent parts
• Reduces metal-on-metal wear and prevents premature component damage
• Can stop looseness, vibration, or rattling caused by a worn or missing washer

• Disconnect power and shut off water before starting any repair
• Verify orientation and position against the original part before installing
• Use the correct fastener and torque to avoid over-compressing the washer
