Ct1650233 Parts

This thimble is a small insert used in the freezer compartment. It reinforces a mounting hole, prevents liner wear, and helps keep attached hardware stable and properly aligned for smooth, quiet operation.

• Serves as a protective bushing for a hole in the freezer compartment liner
• Helps stabilize and align the component secured at that location
• Replaces cracked, worn, or missing inserts that can cause loose hardware, wobbling, or rattling
• Restores proper fit while helping prevent further wear to the liner

• Unplug the refrigerator and clear the work area in the freezer before service
• Remove the fastener/component to access the insert, then pull the old thimble straight out
• Press the new thimble fully into the hole; reinstall hardware without overtightening
• Use care—cold plastic and liner edges can be brittle or sharp

Due to manufacturer changes, if D shaft hinge pin is needed use part number WP2325483.

This replacement screw secures panels, brackets, or trim within your appliance. Replacing a worn, stripped, or missing screw restores a tight, rattle-free fit so components stay aligned and operate as intended. What it does:

• Fastens components at the original factory locations specified for this part
• Replaces missing, damaged, or stripped screws to restore holding power
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling from loose parts
• Maintains proper alignment of panels, covers, brackets, and trim

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before servicing
• Match to the original screw and install in the same location and orientation
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Use the correct driver or nut-driver; transfer any washers or spacers from the original hardware if present

This PTC start relay mounts on the compressor and momentarily powers the start winding to get the motor running, then disengages for normal operation. Replacing a weak relay can stop repeated clicking and help restore cooling.

• Provides initial boost to the compressor's start winding for reliable startup
• Automatically drops out after startup so the compressor runs on the run winding
• Helps address symptoms like warm temperatures, compressor clicking or humming without starting, or frequent overload trips
• Failure may show as rattling, burn marks, or a melted relay housing

• Disconnect power and remove the rear access panel to reach the compressor
• Allow components to cool; note wire locations and take a reference photo
• Pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins; align and firmly seat the new relay in the same orientation, then reconnect wires
• If your unit uses a run capacitor and/or separate overload protector, reconnect per the wiring diagram before restoring power

Screw with a 10-32 thread that secures panels and internal components in household appliances, providing a simple replacement to restore proper fit and reduce rattling or loose parts. Use when a missing or damaged screw causes loose trim or vibration. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets and trim to restore secure fit and reduce noise or movement.
• Replaces missing, stripped or damaged screws that cause loose or misaligned parts.
• Matches a 10-32 thread commonly used on appliance assemblies.
• Helps prevent further wear by restoring correct fastening at the original attachment points.

• Disconnect power and water to the appliance before servicing.
• Use the correct driver and engage threads carefully to avoid cross-threading.
• Do not overtighten — tighten just enough for a secure fit to prevent stripping.
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating fastener or insert rather than forcing this screw.

This washer is a small hardware spacer used in appliance assemblies to distribute load and maintain proper spacing under a fastener or rotating component. Replacing a worn or missing washer helps restore alignment, reduce noise, and keep parts secure.

• Distributes fastener load to protect mating surfaces
• Maintains spacing/alignment between components
• Can act as a thrust surface to reduce friction and wear
• Typical symptoms: looseness or wobble, scraping/squeaking noises, or parts that won't stay tight

• Disconnect power; shut off gas and/or water as applicable
• Note the order/orientation of washers, spacers, and clips during disassembly; take a photo for reference
• Inspect related parts (retainers, bushings) and replace if worn
• Tighten fasteners per manufacturer guidance; avoid overtightening and verify smooth operation after reassembly

Color: white. It measures about 1 inch in diameter.

Almond. Size: 13 oz. can. Acrylic appliance paint.

This replacement light bulb restores clear, dependable illumination so you can easily see inside your appliance and check status at a glance. Replacing a burned-out or dim lamp improves visibility, convenience, and day-to-day safety.

• Provides light when the door opens or the light switch is turned on
• Helps you view contents and monitor progress without guesswork
• Addresses no-light, dim, or flickering conditions
• Installs in the designated light socket on compatible models

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Allow the bulb and surrounding area to cool completely
• Handle glass with a clean cloth or gloves; skin oils can shorten bulb life
• Install gently without overtightening; use only the type/rating specified for your model

Size: 8-18 x 1/2 inch.

This overload protector is a thermal motor protector that cuts power if the dryer motor overheats, helping prevent motor damage and unsafe operation. Replace a failed unit to restore the motor's built-in overheating protection. What it does:

• Senses excessive motor temperature and interrupts motor power to prevent damage.
• Common symptom: dryer may not start or the motor hums but won't turn when the overload has failed.
• Helps stop repeated motor overheating and can prevent associated electrical faults.
• Works as the motor's thermal safety device; must be replaced if open or damaged.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Transfer wiring and mounting exactly as removed; do not bypass the protector.
• Inspect motor and blower for obstructions or causes of overheating before reassembly.

Size: 8 x 1-1/4 inch.

Color: Almond

This bottom hinge shim installs at the refrigerator's lower door hinge to fine-tune door height and alignment. Replacing a worn or missing shim can help restore smooth closing and an even, reliable gasket seal.

• Spaces the door at the lower hinge to set proper height and alignment
• Helps reduce door sagging or rubbing against the cabinet or other door
• Can help the door gasket seal evenly to minimize warm-air leaks

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off the water supply
• Remove items from the door and support the door to prevent strain
• Loosen/remove lower hinge hardware and place the shim in the original location/orientation
• Reassemble, check alignment, and verify even gasket contact around the door

Color: White. Size: 2 oz. can. Porcelain touch-up paint.

This replacement screw secures panels, brackets, and other components in your appliance so they stay tight and properly aligned. Use it to replace missing, stripped, or rusted hardware and eliminate looseness, rattles, or gaps.

• Fastens parts to the cabinet/frame to maintain structural integrity
• Helps keep panels and assemblies aligned to reduce vibration and noise
• Replaces missing, damaged, or corroded screws during service
• Common fix for loose panels or components that no longer hold securely

• Disconnect power and shut off water or gas before servicing
• Match length and thread to the original screw for proper fit
• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading; tighten only until snug—do not overtighten
• Tighten them evenly to ensure proper alignment
