This bushing protects the appliance service cord where it passes through the cabinet, reducing wear and preventing chafing that can expose wiring. It's a simple replacement that restores a safe cord entry point. What it does:

• Cushions and centers the service cord at the cabinet opening to prevent abrasion
• Helps keep the cord from rubbing on sharp metal edges that can cause insulation damage
• Reduces risk of shorting, sparking, or intermittent power caused by a worn cord
• Commonly replaced when the existing bushing is cracked, missing, or deformed

• One service cord bushing

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before servicing
• Inspect the cord and surrounding insulation; replace the cord if damage is found
• Push the bushing into the cabinet opening, then route the cord through the bushing until seated
• Reuse only if undamaged; do not force a damaged bushing into place

This cabinet shell is the outer housing that supports and protects the major components of the appliance, restoring structure and appearance. Replacing a damaged or dented shell helps ensure parts align correctly and prevents further wear. What it does

• Forms the main outer housing that holds internal components in place.
• Protects internal parts from physical damage and debris.
• Restores proper fit and alignment of doors, panels, and controls when the original shell is bent or cracked.
• Helps maintain the appliance's appearance by replacing dented or corroded outer surface.

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, gas or water supply before beginning work.
• Take care with sharp sheet-metal edges; wear gloves and eye protection.
• Fasteners, clips, or trim shown elsewhere on the product page may be required.

This cap is a small protective cover designed to fit over electrical terminals and exposed fittings to help keep dirt, moisture, and accidental contact away from sensitive components. It restores a finished appearance and basic protection. What it does:

• Covers and insulates exposed electrical terminals or connector ends to reduce short risk from accidental contact
• Helps keep moisture, dust, and debris off connections that can cause corrosion over time
• Maintains a secure fit over the terminal to prevent snagging or loose wiring
• Useful when replacing a damaged or missing terminal cover to restore proper protection

• Disconnect power to the appliance before working on electrical components
• Push the cap fully over the terminal until it seats; do not force or modify the part
• If wiring or terminals are corroded or damaged, replace or repair the wiring before installing the cap

This pressure hose and adapter assembly routes water under pressure to the appliance's dispenser/icemaker, restoring proper water flow for ice and dispense functions. It's a direct-fit replacement that reconnects the water line safely. What it does:

• Carries water from the supply valve to the icemaker or dispenser
• Restores proper water flow when original hose is cracked, split, or leaking
• Helps stop visible leaks and pressure loss in the supply line
• Matches OEM routing and connection points for a secure fit

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before beginning work
• Inspect fittings and seals; replace if damaged or corroded to prevent leaks
• Use appropriate wrenches; avoid overtightening plastic fittings

This rubber grommet cushions and protects components by isolating vibration and preventing wear where parts pass through openings. It restores proper fit and reduces noise or rubbing caused by a worn or missing grommet. What it does:

• Cushions panels, housings, or shafts to reduce vibration and noise
• Protects wiring, hoses, or metal edges from abrasion where they pass through openings
• Keeps assemblies aligned by filling mounting gaps and securing components
• Common symptom: increased rattling, vibration, or chafing around the affected area

• One rubber grommet

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Remove panels or components as needed to access the grommet; hand tools may be sufficient
• Inspect surrounding parts and replace any damaged items
• Use the OEM-style grommet to ensure proper fit and function

This damper is the refrigerator air-control flap that regulates airflow between compartments to help maintain consistent temperatures and proper cooling. It replaces a worn or stuck damper to restore normal airflow and temperature balance. What it does:

• Opens and closes to direct cold air where needed between freezer and fresh-food sections
• Helps maintain even temperatures and prevents one compartment from getting too warm
• Common symptom: uneven cooling or warm fresh-food section despite running compressor
• Common symptom: damper stuck or not moving, causing poor temperature control

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove interior panels to access the damper; use basic hand tools
• Handle the damper and any wiring harness carefully to avoid damage
• After installation, verify damper operation and allow time for temperatures to stabilize

This spring assembly restores proper tension to the mechanism it attaches to, helping the component open, close, or return smoothly and reliably. It replaces a worn or broken spring to eliminate binding, sagging, or uneven movement. What it does:

• Provides restoring tension for the linked mechanism so moving parts return to the correct position
• Replaces broken, stretched, or corroded springs that cause sagging, sticking, or uneven operation
• Helps restore smooth opening, closing, or return action and reduces noise from loose components
• Prevents further wear on connected parts by keeping the mechanism correctly tensioned

• Disconnect power (or unplug appliance) before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Springs are under tension; use appropriate tools and caution to avoid slipping or sudden release
• Follow OEM instructions or service manual for proper routing and secure attachment points

This inlet hose connects the household water supply to the refrigerator's water system so ice makers and dispensers receive a steady water feed. Durable, flexible tubing replaces worn or leaking supply lines to restore proper water flow. What it does:

• Channels incoming water from the home supply to the refrigerator's water valve and ice maker
• Replaces cracked, split, or leaking supply tubing that can cause reduced water flow or puddling
• Helps prevent leaks that can lead to water damage when original tubing fails
• Works with the fridge's internal water system to support ice and dispenser functions

• One inlet hose (single water supply line)

• Turn off the home water supply and unplug the appliance before servicing
• Inspect fittings for signs of corrosion; use the proper connector tools to avoid damage
• Tighten connections to a leak-free fit but avoid over-tightening plastic fittings
