This rivet assembly is a direct-replacement fastening piece used to secure appliance panels and components, restoring a stable, rattle-free fit and preventing movement caused by worn or broken rivets. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, or component mounts to restore proper alignment and support
• Stops rattling, vibration, or loose hardware caused by damaged or missing rivets
• Provides a durable mechanical fastener where original rivets have sheared or loosened
• Helps maintain safe operation by keeping parts properly retained

• Disconnect power (and gas/water if applicable) before attempting any repairs
• Removal may require drilling out the old rivet; installation typically needs a rivet gun or equivalent tool
• Keep hardware orientation the same as the original; replace any damaged surrounding parts

This replacement rack holder supports the removable wire rack inside your microwave, keeping it steady and level. Replace a cracked or missing holder to restore stable, reliable two-level cooking performance. What it does:

• Holds the interior wire rack securely against the cavity wall
• Maintains correct rack height and alignment for stable support
• Helps prevent rack wobbling, slipping, or rattling during use
• Common signs of failure: cracked/heat-damaged holder, rack tilts or falls, scorch/arcing marks near the support

• 1 rack holder

• Disconnect power by unplugging the microwave or switching off the circuit breaker
• Remove the wire rack and note the holder's orientation and location
• Remove the existing holder (release clip or remove screw) and transfer any original mounting hardware if needed
• Seat the new holder fully, reinstall the rack level, and test with a microwave-safe cup of water

This replacement plate restores the original support and fit for the appliance component it secures, helping stop rattles and misalignment. Use this OEM-design plate when the original is bent, cracked, or missing. What it does:

• Provides a stable mounting surface to secure adjacent parts and assemblies
• Prevents movement that can cause noise, misalignment, or uneven operation
• Restores correct spacing and alignment for panels or elements
• Helps maintain safe, consistent appliance performance when damaged

• One plate

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting any repair
• Handle edges carefully; replacement metal parts can have sharp edges
• Verify orientation and alignment before tightening fasteners; use only the hardware specified by the manufacturer

This thermostat with bracket replaces the temperature control switch that senses and helps regulate appliance temperature, restoring proper cycling and temperature response. It provides a direct-fit mounting bracket for secure installation. What it does:

• Senses internal temperature and signals the control system to start or stop cooling/heating
• Helps maintain consistent temperature by cycling compressor or heating elements
• Common symptoms this can address: unit not cooling consistently, runs constantly, or compressor cycles on and off quickly
• Works as the mechanical/electrical interface between the appliance and its temperature control circuitry

• One thermostat and one mounting bracket

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Handle terminals and wiring carefully; note wire locations or take a photo before disconnecting
• Mount the bracket securely and verify the thermostat is positioned to sense temperature as OEM directed
• Test the thermostat for continuity with a multimeter

This run capacitor helps the appliance motor start and run smoothly by storing and releasing electrical energy. Replacing a worn capacitor can restore reliable motor operation and reduce abnormal motor noise or cycling. What it does:

• Provides the brief power boost motors need to start and maintain RPM
• Helps stabilize motor voltage and improve run efficiency under load
• Commonly linked to symptoms such as motors that hum but won't start, slow or intermittent motor operation, or unusual motor noise
• Reduces stress on motor windings that can lead to premature failure when functioning properly

• One motor capacitor

• Always disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Capacitors can hold a charge; discharge safely
• Observe proper polarity and mounting location during installation; secure wiring and connectors

This noise filter assembly reduces electrical interference on the appliance's power line to help prevent control malfunctions and limit radio/TV interference. It replaces a damaged or noisy filter to restore proper, quieter operation. What it does:

• Filters EMI/RFI on the incoming power line to reduce electrical noise
• Helps prevent interference-related control/display glitches and resets
• Can stop buzzing or intermittent electrical noise caused by a failing filter
• Protects downstream control boards and sensitive electronics from transient noise

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing.
• Observe original wiring orientation and secure all connectors; replace only with identical part.
• Use basic hand tools; avoid shorting terminals or touching energized circuits.

This wire rack assembly provides a sturdy, removable shelf for your oven, giving stable support for cookware and bakeware and restoring proper shelf placement and clearance. What it does

• Replaces a bent, damaged, or missing oven shelf so pots and pans sit level during baking and roasting
• Restores smooth sliding and correct clearance for consistent cooking results
• Helps prevent cookware from tipping or shifting on weakened racks
• Fits into existing rack supports or side rails for secure positioning

• Remove power to the appliance and allow it to cool completely before installing
• Slide the rack into the oven rails or supports until fully seated; it rests level
• Wear gloves to avoid pinches or sharp edges while handling the rack
• No special tools usually required; refer to your owner's manual for model-specific guidance

This blade fan is the rotating plastic fan blade that moves cold air across the evaporator and through the fresh-food compartment to help maintain even refrigerator temperatures. It replaces a worn or damaged blade to restore airflow and cooling performance. What it does:

• Spins on the evaporator/evaporator motor shaft to circulate cold air through the freezer and refrigerator sections
• Helps reduce warm spots and slow cooling caused by a cracked, chipped or missing blade
• Commonly replaced when fan noise increases, the fan wobbles, or airflow is reduced
• Works with the existing evaporator fan motor and mounting hardware to re-establish proper circulation

• One blade fan

• Unplug the appliance and/or shut off power at the breaker before servicing
• Remove interior panels and ice/water components as needed to access the evaporator fan area
• Handle the plastic blades carefully to avoid cracking; ensure the blade is fully seated on the motor shaft
