This refrigerator deflector is a molded guide that mounts inside the unit to direct internal airflow where it's needed. Replacing a cracked, warped, or missing deflector helps restore proper circulation for more consistent temperatures and performance.

• Channels airflow within the freezer/dispenser path to maintain even cooling
• Helps reduce frost or ice buildup caused by misdirected air
• Can address symptoms like warm spots, frost around vents, or rattling from loose parts
• Replace if broken, deformed, or missing

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove shelves/panels as needed to access the mounting location; keep track of screws/clips
• Install the new deflector in the same orientation; reuse existing hardware
• Reassemble and verify that vents/air passages are unobstructed

This seal kit replaces worn sealing material in your appliance to restore a tight, reliable barrier. A fresh seal helps stop leaks and drafts, reduces noise, and supports proper temperature and moisture control.

• Creates a secure seal between mating surfaces or components
• Helps prevent air or water leaks around the sealed area
• Can reduce vibration noise from gaps or loose fits
• Supports stable temperatures and overall efficiency
• Common signs include visible gaps, cracking, flattening, or persistent leakage

• Disconnect power (and water or gas, if applicable) before servicing
• Remove the old seal and thoroughly clean mating surfaces of residue
• Test-fit for length/orientation; trim only if instructed by the manufacturer
• Press into place evenly; if adhesive-backed or cement is used, allow proper set time before use and check for leaks

This drain trough directs defrost water from the evaporator to the refrigerator drain, helping prevent pooling, leaks and ice build-up in the fresh-food compartment. A correct trough keeps defrost water flowing and reduces odors or floor damage. What it does:

• Channels defrost/condensate water from the evaporator to the drain system
• Prevents water pooling under shelves or in the crisper area
• Reduces ice buildup and attendant leaks when the drain path is clear
• Replace if cracked, warped, or if water is collecting where it shouldn't

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Remove interior shelves/drawers as needed to access the trough
• Clean the drain channel and clear any debris before installing the new trough
• Make sure the trough is fully seated and aligned so water drains properly; follow OEM fastener/placement points

This factory fastener secures appliance panels and components. Replace a missing, stripped, or corroded screw to restore a tight, rattle-free fit and keep brackets and covers properly aligned.

• Fastens panels, brackets, and internal parts as specified by the manufacturer
• Helps maintain alignment and reduces vibration/rattling
• Replace if the head is stripped, threads are damaged, or corrosion is present
• Symptoms include loose/missing hardware, gaps, or rattling during operation

• Disconnect power; shut off gas/water if applicable before servicing
• Use the correct driver/bit size to avoid stripping the head
• Start threads by hand to prevent cross-threading; do not overtighten
• Match screw length/thread to the location; replace in sets when required

Thermal mastic is a heat-conductive compound that improves thermal contact between temperature sensors/thermostats and appliance surfaces, helping sensors read more accurately for more consistent cooling and defrost performance. What it does:

• Creates a thermal bridge between sensors or thermostats and the surface they monitor to improve temperature sensing accuracy.
• Helps reduce symptoms caused by poor sensor contact, such as inaccurate temperature readings, intermittent cooling, or erratic defrost cycles.
• Applies as a thin, conforming layer to fill gaps and improve heat transfer without changing sensor placement.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before service.
• Clean and dry mating surfaces before applying a thin, even layer of mastic.
• Press the sensor or thermostat into the mastic so it contacts the surface; wipe away any excess.
• Avoid contact with eyes/skin, keep away from food-contact surfaces, and follow all OEM safety instructions.

Here is a replacement shelf support grommet that is used in freezers and refrigerators. The grommets are used to provide stability for the shelves in the refrigerator. If they are broken or missing, the shelves will not sit correctly, and owners won't be able to put anything onto the shelves. A replacement grommet should slide into place, but may need to be gently tapped to ensure a proper seal is made.The shelf support grommet is for use with certain refrigerator models from Frigidaire, Kenmore, Gibson, and Crosley. This is a genuine OEM replacement part that was sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is important to note that the grommets are sold individually. If more than one is needed, owners will need to order multiple.

Color: White. Used for the upper hinge holes.

This interior refrigerator light socket holds the cabinet lamp and connects it to the appliance wiring, restoring a secure bulb connection for reliable interior illumination. Ideal when the socket is cracked, loose, or no longer makes contact. What it does:

• Secures and connects the refrigerator interior bulb to the cabinet wiring so the light turns on when the door is opened.
• Replaces cracked, melted, corroded, or loose sockets that cause flickering, intermittent light, or loss of illumination.
• Provides a stable threaded or bayonet-style receptacle (matching the original) so bulbs seat properly and stay in place.
• Helps eliminate poor electrical contact that can cause intermittent operation or shorted lamp circuits.

• Always disconnect power to the refrigerator (unplug or switch off circuit) before inspecting or replacing the socket.
• Remove the bulb before replacing the socket; handle bulbs with care to avoid breakage.
• Match the socket orientation and terminal connections to the original; preserve wire routing and secure all connectors.

This rivet is a metal fastener used to permanently secure panels, brackets, or internal components in your appliance. Replacing a damaged or missing rivet restores a tight fit and helps prevent vibration, rattles, and looseness.

This micro switch detects door or lid position and tells the appliance when the door is closed so cycles can start or safety interlocks stay engaged. It restores reliable door sensing and helps prevent operation with the door open. What it does:

• Acts as a position sensor that completes or breaks the control circuit when the door/lid is closed or opened
• Keeps the appliance from starting or continuing a cycle if the door is open (safety interlock)
• Common symptom fix: appliance won't start, stops mid-cycle, or shows door-related error codes
• Small electrical switch designed to mount at the door latch or frame and connect to the appliance wiring harness

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before attempting service
• Access may require removing panels, trim, or the door latch assembly; keep track of screws and fasteners
• Observe wiring orientation and connector positions; replace exactly as removed or tag wires

Color: White

This cabinet corner trim is a direct-replacement trim piece that restores a finished edge and protects the appliance cabinet corner from chips, dings, and moisture. It improves appearance and keeps the cabinet edge sealed. What it does:

• Covers and protects the exposed cabinet corner to prevent further chipping or damage
