This speed clip is a small retainer that slides over a panel edge to provide a captive thread for a screw. Replacing a worn or missing clip restores a tight, rattle-free hold on the attached component. What it does:

• Slides over a panel or bracket to create a captive thread for a mounting screw
• Maintains tension to resist vibration and loosening
• Helps when a screw spins or won't tighten due to a missing retainer
• Addresses loose, rattling, or misaligned panels or trim

• 1 speed clip

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water before servicing
• Note the original clip's location and orientation for correct fit
• Fully seat the clip on the edge; start the screw by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Do not overtighten; ensure the component is secure and noise-free

Fresh food section. Color: clear. Measures about 3 inches in diameter.

This defrost thermostat is the temperature limit switch for the evaporator. It lets the defrost heater run when coils are icy and opens as they warm to end the cycle, helping stop frost buildup and restore steady cooling.

• Monitors evaporator temperature; closed when cold to allow the defrost heater to energize
• Opens as the coil warms to terminate defrost and protect components from overheating
• Failure may cause heavy frost on the back wall/evaporator and weak airflow or a warm refrigerator section
• Can also lead to long run times or cooling that returns only briefly after a manual defrost

• Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power before servicing
• Located behind the freezer's rear panel on the evaporator; remove shelves/ice bin and panel to access
• Reinstall in the same position/clip for firm contact with the coil or tubing
• Make secure, insulated wire connections and route wiring away from sharp edges and moving parts

The defrost timer controls your refrigerator's automatic defrost cycle, periodically pausing cooling to power the defrost heater. Replacing a faulty timer restores proper defrosting to help prevent frost buildup, temperature swings, and excessive run time.

• Advances the system between cooling and defrost at set intervals
• Sends power to the defrost heater, then returns the unit to cooling
• Failure may cause heavy frost on evaporator coils and weak airflow
• Fresh food section may run warm while the freezer ices over
• Unit may run constantly, never defrost, or get stuck in defrost

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Location varies by model; access the timer (often in the control housing or rear compartment), note wire positions, and transfer one at a time
• Mount and secure the timer as originally installed; reuse existing bracket/fasteners
• After reassembly, restore power and verify the unit advances through cooling and defrost

This light socket replaces a worn or heat-damaged lamp holder so your appliance light works reliably again. Its straight-connector design fits applications with in-line wiring, ensuring a secure electrical connection to the interior light bulb.

• Holds the light bulb and supplies power to it
• Restores interior illumination for better visibility
• Straight terminal orientation for housings requiring inline wiring clearance
• Typical signs of failure: light stays off with a good bulb, flickers, or shows heat damage at the socket

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug before servicing; allow the area to cool completely
• Remove any lens/cover; transfer wires one at a time to maintain correct connections
• Secure the socket with existing bracket/fasteners; do not overtighten
• Test light operation before reassembly and confirm the door switch activates the light

This lower hinge pin is the pivot shaft for your refrigerator door. Replacing a worn or bent pin restores smooth movement and proper alignment so the door seals and closes correctly while reducing hinge noise.

• Serves as the pivot point between the door and the lower hinge bracket
• Helps maintain door height and alignment for an even gasket seal
• Wear or damage can cause door sagging, rubbing, squeaking, or inconsistent closing
• Replacing the pin can restore smooth swing and reduce wobble at the hinge

• Disconnect power; remove items from the door. Support the door and remove the upper hinge to lift the door off the lower hinge.
• Replace the lower hinge pin on the hinge/bracket, reusing any model-specific washers or bushings.
• Reinstall, level, and align the door so the gasket seals evenly; verify smooth swing and positive closure.

Ice stripper removes ice cubes from the ice maker mold so the dispenser or storage bin fills properly. Replacing a worn or broken stripper helps the ice maker eject cubes cleanly and reduces ice jams or stuck cubes. What it does:

• Pushes or guides harvested cubes out of the ice mold into the bin during the ice maker's harvest cycle.
• Prevents cubes from sticking in the mold; a damaged stripper can cause incomplete ejection or leftover ice in the mold.
• Works with the ice maker's ejector mechanism to maintain consistent cube release and storage.
• A faulty or broken stripper may lead to noisy operation, partial fills, or visible ice build-up in the mold.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Remove the ice maker or access panel per the manufacturer's instructions to reach the stripper; keep small parts and screws organized.
• Inspect the ice mold and surrounding components for damage or ice build-up; clear ice before installing the new stripper.
• After installation, restore power and run a test harvest cycle to ensure proper cube ejection.

Kit was recently redesigned by manufacturer. Instructions included.

This support mounts in the dispenser area to secure the ice housing assembly. It helps keep the chute and door properly aligned so ice dispenses smoothly and the opening seals as designed.

• Supports and positions the ice housing/chute assembly in the freezer door
• Helps maintain proper alignment and sealing of the ice door/flapper
• Reduces wobble or flex that can affect dispensing performance
• Typical signs it may be needed: loose or misaligned dispenser housing, ice or air leaking at the chute, frost buildup around the dispenser, inconsistent ice dispensing

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the dispenser trim/control to access the housing; handle wiring and tabs carefully
• Remove mounting fasteners, replace the support, and transfer any reusable hardware
• Reassemble, restore power, and test ice dispensing and chute seal

Size: 8 x 1-1/4 inch.

This hinge supports and pivots the washer lid so it opens and closes smoothly. Replacing a worn or broken hinge restores proper alignment and helps the lid close securely without binding or rubbing.

• Provides the pivot point for the lid to open and close
• Keeps the lid aligned with the top panel
• Wear symptoms include wobble or sagging, squeaks, binding, or visible cracks/bending
• Misalignment may prevent the lid switch/latch from engaging properly

• Unplug the washer before servicing; have a helper support the lid
• Remove the mounting screws, noting hinge orientation for reassembly
• Transfer and reuse original screws/trim as applicable; do not overtighten
• Test lid alignment and operation before fully tightening the fasteners
