This center hinge spacer sits on the refrigerator's center hinge pin to keep the door properly spaced and pivoting smoothly. Replacing a worn spacer helps restore even door alignment and a reliable gasket seal for easier opening and closing. What it does

• Maintains the correct gap between the door and center hinge to prevent metal-to-metal wear
• Supports smooth, quiet door movement on the hinge pin
• Helps keep the door level so the gasket seals evenly
• Worn or missing spacers can lead to door sagging, rubbing/squeaking, or doors that don't close cleanly

• One center hinge spacer

• Disconnect power and remove items from the door; support the door before loosening hinge hardware
• Lift the door off the center hinge pin and remove the old spacer
• Place the new spacer on the hinge pin, reinstall the door, and check alignment and seal

This refrigerator bracket and bushing assembly secures a moving component and provides a stable wear/pivot surface for smooth operation. Replace it when the original parts are worn or broken and causing looseness, scraping noises, or poor alignment.

• Provides a mounting point and bearing surface for rotational or sliding movement
• Helps maintain alignment and smooth, quiet operation
• Can help address wobble, scraping/binding, or a component that sags or sits out of position
• Replace if the bracket is bent/cracked or the bushing is worn/missing

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water supply if working near dispenser lines
• Support the attached component while removing fasteners; note the original orientation
• Transfer any spacers/clips from the old parts if present and tighten fasteners evenly
• After installation, verify smooth movement and proper alignment

The product featured is a Frigidaire refrigerator compressor. The compressor is a vital component for the cooling and freezing process of a refrigerator. A compressor works together with the evaporator in providing the cold air needed to keep everything at the desired temperature. When a compressor fails, this could have an effect that calls for an emergency repair. Losing the compressor function means the refrigerator stops getting cold in both compartments. Prolonging the repair could mean the loss of all the food items stored inside. A faulty compressor may become very loud when it operates. Users may hear a slight clicking sound on a compressor that's entirely out of commission. This is the relay clicking in an attempt to power the compressor. If a compressor does go out, keep the doors of the freezer and refrigerator shut. There's a chance the food can be salvaged if repairs take place fast enough. This compressor is a genuine OEM product and is sourced directly from the manufacturer and is only available as an individual component. Frigidaire, Kenmore, and Maytag refrigerators can be repaired with this component.

Bottom air diffuser directs cold air into the refrigerator's lower cabinet to help maintain even temperatures and reduce warm spots. Replacing a damaged diffuser restores proper airflow and helps the fresh-food section cool more consistently. What it does:

• Redirects cold air from the cooling channel into the refrigerator's lower cabinet for balanced cooling.
• Helps reduce warm spots and uneven temperatures in the fresh-food area.
• A cracked, broken, or missing diffuser can lead to restricted airflow and inconsistent cabinet temperatures.
• Seats into the lower air channel and secures with factory tabs or fasteners; inspect mounting tabs for damage.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before performing any service.
• Remove shelves and drawers as needed for access; work carefully around evaporator/air channels.
• Gently release and re-seat plastic tabs or remove fasteners; avoid forcing parts to prevent breakage.
• If tabs are damaged, replace them or consider replacing adjacent vent components to ensure a secure fit.

This replacement water tube routes water within the refrigerator's internal water system. Installing a fresh, intact tube helps stop leaks and restores reliable water flow to the dispenser and ice maker. What it does:

• Carries water between components such as the inlet valve, reservoir, dispenser, and ice maker
• Maintains a sealed, kink-free path for proper flow and pressure
• Common signs of failure: leaks or puddling, weak or no dispenser flow, ice maker not filling, brittle or discolored tubing

• One tube

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Note the original routing; take photos to match length and path
• If trimming, cut ends square and fully seat into the existing push-to-connect or compression fittings
• Restore water and check all connections for leaks before powering the unit back on

This aluminum strap secures the defrost heater firmly against the evaporator coil to maintain proper contact during defrost. Correct contact improves heat transfer so frost melts evenly and helps prevent recurring ice buildup on the evaporator.

• Secures the defrost heater to the evaporator for proper contact and heat transfer
• Promotes complete, even defrosting across the evaporator coil
• Helps reduce repeat frost/ice accumulation caused by a shifted or loose heater
• Typical clues include a loose heater, uneven frost pattern, or rattling near the evaporator

• Disconnect power and allow ice to melt before accessing the evaporator
• Use care around sharp fins and fragile refrigerant tubing; do not puncture or deform the coil
• Position the heater per your model's parts diagram and tighten the strap for firm, even contact
• Verify wiring is routed clear of the fan and moving parts before reassembly

This plug covers the small factory test opening on an appliance cabinet or liner. Replacing a missing or damaged plug helps close the opening to maintain a better seal and restore a clean, finished appearance.

• Seals the factory test opening in the cabinet/panel
• Helps limit air and moisture infiltration through the hole
• Reduces condensation or frost forming around the opening
• Restores a finished look when the original cap is missing or damaged

• Disconnect power before servicing the appliance
• Clean and dry the opening area for proper fit
• Align and press the plug in by hand until it sits flush—do not force or enlarge the hole
• Avoid sharp tools or sealants that could damage the liner or insulation

This defrost heater mounts at the evaporator and melts frost during the automatic defrost cycle to keep airflow clear and temperatures steady. Replace it if ice builds up on the freezer wall or the refrigerator section warms.

• Heats the evaporator during defrost to clear frost and ice
• Restores normal airflow between freezer and fresh food compartments
• Common symptoms: frost/ice on back freezer panel, warm refrigerator section, longer run times
• Can prevent fan noise or blockage caused by ice around the evaporator

• Disconnect power and remove the freezer rear panel to access the evaporator
• Handle the heater carefully and avoid damaging the evaporator fins
• Route wires and secure the heater exactly like the original, reusing any clips/brackets
• Restore power and verify defrost operation; if frost returns, check the defrost thermostat and control

This PTC compressor start relay briefly powers the compressor's start winding to get the motor turning, then drops out as it warms. Replacing a weak relay can restore consistent compressor starts and stabilize refrigerator and freezer temperatures.

• Momentarily energizes the compressor's start winding; disengages automatically as the PTC element heats
• Helps protect the compressor by removing the start winding after startup
• Symptoms of failure can include compressor clicking but not running
• Intermittent cooling or warming temperatures between cycles
• Heat discoloration or a burnt odor around the start device

• Disconnect power and remove the rear lower access panel
• Note wire locations; remove the start device cover/retainer and pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins
• Inspect compressor pins; firmly seat the new relay and reconnect wiring
• Reinstall covers/panels, restore power, and verify normal compressor start
