The Compressor Controller is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. Located on the compressor housing, this start device functions to gradually apply power to the compressor's start winding during power-up or a defrost cycle. This helps reduce energy usage and lessens the initial workload and strain on the compressor.

Causes can be failure over time from heat and electrical stress, or water damage. 

Symptoms of a bad compressor start device include:

• The compressor failing to start or engage for cooling cycles
• Audible humming noises but no cooling air being produced
• Higher electric bills from inefficient restarting of the compressor

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The Harness Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire freezers. It is a bundle of color-coded wires that connect electronic and mechanical components inside the freezer, allowing them to communicate and function as intended. The harness assembly reliably transmits signals from the control board to things like fans, temperature sensors, and door alarms.  

Symptoms of a bad harness assembly include:  

• Components not receiving power or control signals
• Intermittent operation of internal lights or fans  
• Temperature control or cooling issues
• Buzzing or humming noises from loose wires
• Error codes related to communicating with modules

Causes of a bad dispenser can include damage over time from repeated bending and flexing of wires, rodent chewing, or corroded connections.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

This center hinge spacer sits on the refrigerator's center hinge pin to keep the door properly spaced and pivoting smoothly. Replacing a worn spacer helps restore even door alignment and a reliable gasket seal for easier opening and closing. What it does

• Maintains the correct gap between the door and center hinge to prevent metal-to-metal wear
• Supports smooth, quiet door movement on the hinge pin
• Helps keep the door level so the gasket seals evenly
• Worn or missing spacers can lead to door sagging, rubbing/squeaking, or doors that don't close cleanly

• One center hinge spacer

• Disconnect power and remove items from the door; support the door before loosening hinge hardware
• Lift the door off the center hinge pin and remove the old spacer
• Place the new spacer on the hinge pin, reinstall the door, and check alignment and seal
• Re-tighten hinge fasteners and verify the door opens/closes smoothly

This refrigerator grommet is a small sealing/cushioning insert used where a tube, wire, or component passes through the cabinet or mounts to a panel. It helps keep the opening sealed and protected for reliable operation.

• Seals and cushions an opening or mounting point in the refrigerator cabinet
• Helps prevent water leaks and warm-air infiltration that can lead to frost or moisture
• Reduces chafing, vibration, and wear on tubing or wiring
• Replace if the grommet is cracked, hardened, misshapen, or missing

• Unplug the refrigerator and, if applicable, shut off the water supply
• Access the grommet location by removing any cover or panel as needed
• Remove the old grommet, clean the opening, and press the new grommet fully into place; route the line/wire without kinks
• Restore power (and water, if used) and check for proper sealing and operation

This freezer temperature control assembly regulates cooling by monitoring cabinet temperature and switching the cooling system on and off to match your setting. Replace it if temperatures drift, the unit short-cycles or runs constantly, or the control stops responding. What it does:

• Senses freezer temperature and commands the cooling system to maintain your selected set point
• Provides user adjustment of freezer temperature via the control mechanism
• Helps restore consistent, reliable freezing performance
• Common failure symptoms include too warm or too cold temperatures, continuous running or no run, and an unresponsive temperature dial

• 1 freezer temperature control assembly

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the control housing; note wire/harness positions and component orientation for reassembly
• Transfer any reusable mounting parts from the original control as needed; secure wiring away from moving parts
• Set the control to a mid-range setting and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize after replacement

Bottom air diffuser directs cold air into the refrigerator's lower cabinet to help maintain even temperatures and reduce warm spots. Replacing a damaged diffuser restores proper airflow and helps the fresh-food section cool more consistently. What it does:

• Redirects cold air from the cooling channel into the refrigerator's lower cabinet for balanced cooling.
• Helps reduce warm spots and uneven temperatures in the fresh-food area.
• A cracked, broken, or missing diffuser can lead to restricted airflow and inconsistent cabinet temperatures.
• Seats into the lower air channel and secures with factory tabs or fasteners; inspect mounting tabs for damage.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before performing any service.
• Remove shelves and drawers as needed for access; work carefully around evaporator/air channels.
• Gently release and re-seat plastic tabs or remove fasteners; avoid forcing parts to prevent breakage.
• If tabs are damaged, replace them or consider replacing adjacent vent components to ensure a secure fit.

This replacement water tube routes water within the refrigerator's internal water system. Installing a fresh, intact tube helps stop leaks and restores reliable water flow to the dispenser and ice maker. What it does:

• Carries water between components such as the inlet valve, reservoir, dispenser, and ice maker
• Maintains a sealed, kink-free path for proper flow and pressure
• Common signs of failure: leaks or puddling, weak or no dispenser flow, ice maker not filling, brittle or discolored tubing

• One tube

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Note the original routing; take photos to match length and path
• If trimming, cut ends square and fully seat into the existing push-to-connect or compression fittings
• Restore water and check all connections for leaks before powering the unit back on

This defrost pan collects water from the refrigerator's automatic defrost cycle and sits over warm components so it can evaporate safely. Replace a cracked or deformed pan to help prevent floor puddles and musty odors. What it does:

• Collects defrost condensate and allows it to evaporate in the machine compartment
• Helps keep floors dry by managing defrost water
• Replace if the pan is cracked, warped, leaking, or missing
• Common symptoms include water under the refrigerator, recurring puddles, or musty odors

• 1 defrost drain pan

• Disconnect power and pull the refrigerator away from the wall before servicing
• Remove the rear access panel to reach the drain pan
• Slide out the old pan carefully and empty any water; reuse any original supports/brackets if present
• Set the new pan on its supports, ensure the drain outlet/tube drips into the pan, reinstall the panel, restore power, and check for leaks
