Parts for Ge AZ65H12DABW7: Sealed System Parts

This foam insulator fits on the coil side to cushion, seal and protect the evaporator area—helping reduce vibration, prevent rubbing, and maintain proper airflow around the coil for more consistent cooling performance. What it does

• Cushions the evaporator coil to prevent vibration and rattling noises
• Seals gaps around the coil to help direct airflow where needed
• Protects coil edges from abrasion against adjacent components
• Helps reduce moisture migration that can cause ice buildup in the coil area

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Access may require removing the evaporator cover or interior panels
• Fit the foam to the coil edge and adjacent frame; replace if torn or compressed

A rubber compressor grommet that cushions the compressor and helps reduce vibration and noise for more stable, quieter operation. Fits over compressor mount studs to isolate the compressor from the cabinet frame. What it does:

• Absorbs and isolates compressor vibration to reduce rattling and noise
• Prevents metal-to-metal contact between compressor and mounting plate
• Helps protect mounting hardware and compressor casing from wear
• Commonly used when noise, vibration, or movement is noticed around the compressor area

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock hazard
• Access the compressor from the rear panel; support the compressor when removing mounts
• Replace any additional worn grommets or mounting hardware for best results

This compressor overload is a thermal protector that safeguards the sealed-system compressor by cutting power when overheating or excessive current is detected. Replacing a failed overload can stop repeated clicking and help the compressor start reliably again.

• Opens the compressor circuit under high temperature or overcurrent to prevent motor damage
• Common symptoms: compressor won't start, rapid clicking from the compressor area, unit warm/not cooling, short run then shutoff
• Helps prevent repeated short-cycling so the compressor can cool before restarting
• Often inspected alongside the start relay and run capacitor when diagnosing start issues

• Disconnect power and allow the compressor area to cool before servicing
• Access the compressor compartment and remove the start device/terminal cover
• Note wire positions; pull the old overload straight off the compressor terminal and seat the new one firmly—do not bend terminals or pry on refrigerant lines
• Inspect the start relay, capacitor, and wiring for heat damage before reassembly

Thermistor monitors internal appliance temperature and sends readings to the control board so the system can maintain proper cooling and cycle behavior reliably. What it does:

• Detects temperature and reports it to the control board so cooling, fans and cycles respond correctly.
• Helps the appliance maintain consistent temperatures and prevents overcooling or excessive runtime.
• A faulty thermistor can cause temperature fluctuations, an appliance that runs constantly or not long enough, or uneven cooling.
• Works as the temperature-sensing component used by the control system to regulate performance.

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Note connector orientation and wire routing before removal; handle the sensor leads gently to avoid damage.
• Seat the connector fully and secure any clips or mounting points so the sensor sits in the correct location.

This thermistor holder secures the refrigerator temperature sensor in the correct position so the control board reads accurate air/evaporator temperatures for consistent cooling performance. What it does:

• Holds the temperature sensor/thermistor in place near the evaporator or air duct so the control can monitor temperature.
• Helps ensure accurate temperature readings to prevent overcooling or insufficient cooling.
• Stabilizes sensor location to reduce intermittent or false temperature signals.
• Commonly associated with symptoms like erratic temperature display, long run cycles, or uneven cooling when the sensor is loose or damaged.

• One thermistor holder/mounting bracket.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock.
• Handle the thermistor/sensor carefully; do not pull on wires or bend the sensing element.
• Ensure the sensor is fully seated in the holder and that the holder is secured in its mounting location.

This screw secures a solenoid or solenoid-mounted component to its valve or mounting bracket, restoring proper fit and preventing movement. A simple replacement for a stripped, missing or loose mounting fastener. What it does

• Fastens solenoid assemblies or related brackets to their valve/body
• Helps stop solenoid movement, rattling or misalignment caused by a loose or missing screw
• Used when replacing a corroded, damaged or missing solenoid mounting screw
• Small replacement part that ensures the solenoid stays properly seated during operation

• Unplug the appliance or shut off power before servicing.
• Use the correct screwdriver and avoid overtightening to prevent stripping threads.
• Keep small parts away from children and pets; retain any washers or clips that may be reused.
• If other mounting hardware appears damaged or corroded, inspect the assembly and replace additional parts as needed.
