Guardette (right) is a replacement right-side protective guard used on select GE refrigerators. It restores the interior guard/trim that protects components and helps keep the cabinet interior aligned for smooth door and shelf operation. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, broken or missing right-side guard to restore proper coverage and protection
• Shields interior wiring and components from contact and everyday wear
• Helps prevent items from catching on damaged trim and reduces rattles or misalignment
• Matches OEM fit and mounting points for a straightforward replacement on compatible units

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repairs
• Removal may require gently prying or unsnapping the old guard; use a trim tool to avoid damage
• Align mounting tabs and press firmly until the replacement snaps into place
• If fasteners are present, tighten by hand to avoid cracking plastic

A replacement door switch that senses when the appliance door is closed and allows the unit to operate. Restores normal safety interlock function so the appliance only runs with the door properly shut. What it does

• Detects door closure and completes the circuit to allow the appliance to start or run.
• Prevents operation when the door is open, helping keep users safe.
• Commonly linked to symptoms such as the appliance not starting, stopping mid-cycle, or controls not responding when the door is shut.
• Works as a direct electrical interface for the door latch or catch assembly.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit breaker) before accessing the switch.
• Remove required access panels or the door inner panel; handle sharp edges and glass with care.
• Confirm wiring and connector orientation match the replacement; secure all fasteners and reassemble panels fully.
