This thimble is a small insert used in the freezer compartment. It reinforces a mounting hole, prevents liner wear, and helps keep attached hardware stable and properly aligned for smooth, quiet operation.

• Serves as a protective bushing for a hole in the freezer compartment liner
• Helps stabilize and align the component secured at that location
• Replaces cracked, worn, or missing inserts that can cause loose hardware, wobbling, or rattling
• Restores proper fit while helping prevent further wear to the liner

• Unplug the refrigerator and clear the work area in the freezer before service
• Remove the fastener/component to access the insert, then pull the old thimble straight out
• Press the new thimble fully into the hole; reinstall hardware without overtightening
• Use care—cold plastic and liner edges can be brittle or sharp

This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.

Bottle with brush. Color: Biscuit paint. It's point-six fluid ounces.

This evaporator fan motor circulates cold air across the evaporator coil and throughout the compartments. Replacing a weak or seized motor restores proper airflow, helping maintain even temperatures and consistent cooling performance.

• Spins the evaporator fan blade to move air across the coils and into the cabinet
• Helps balance temperatures between sections for uniform cooling
• Supports proper frost management by promoting airflow across the evaporator
• Common symptoms include no airflow, warm refrigerator section, intermittent cooling, or loud humming/whirring from the fan area

• Disconnect power before servicing and wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove shelves/bins and the interior panel to access the evaporator area
• Unplug the connector, unmount the motor, and install the replacement; transfer the original fan blade and mounting pieces if required
• Ensure the fan spins freely and wiring is clear of the blade before reassembly and testing

This evaporator tray collects defrost/condensate water and holds it where warm air can evaporate it, helping prevent leaks and odors. Replace a cracked or warped tray to restore proper drainage and protect surrounding floors and cabinetry.

• Collects water from the evaporator/defrost system and contains it safely
• Promotes evaporation using airflow and heat near the condenser area
• Helps prevent puddles beneath the appliance and mildew odors
• Common signs of failure: water on the floor, recurring leaks after defrost, visible cracks/warping, or standing water in the pan

• Disconnect power and allow components to cool before servicing
• Access the tray from the base or rear (panel removal varies by model)
• Transfer any brackets, clips, or grommets from the old tray as needed
• Ensure the drain tube seats fully into the tray and that the tray is level; restore power and check for leaks

Color: white. It measures about 1 inch in diameter.

This is a factory mechanical thermostat used in Whirlpool-built refrigeration systems. It senses temperature and opens/closes its contacts to maintain the set point, restoring reliable cycling and consistent, predictable cooling performance. What it does:

• Monitors temperature and switches an electrical circuit on or off at specific thresholds
• Helps maintain target temperature and proper system cycling
• Failure can cause erratic temperatures, poor cooling, continuous running, or failure to cycle
• Can lead to intermittent operation or clicking/chattering at the control

• 1 mechanical thermostat

• Disconnect power before servicing; verify the circuit is de-energized
• Note wire positions and terminal orientation; transfer any brackets or insulating sleeves from the original part
• Route and secure any sensing element or leads exactly as the original; avoid pinching, kinking, or contact with moving parts
• After replacement, set the control and allow the appliance to stabilize before making final adjustments

This is overload only. For overload and relay order WP4387835.

This washer tub mounting bolt secures the tub assembly to its support points. Replacing worn or missing hardware helps keep the tub aligned and stable through wash and spin, reducing vibration and noise. What it does:

• Anchors the tub assembly to its mounting bracket or frame
• Helps maintain alignment under load and during high-speed spin
• Replace if the bolt is stripped, rounded, rusted, or missing
• Symptoms can include excessive vibration/banging, tub shifting or scraping, and rattling hardware

• 1 mounting bolt

• Disconnect power and water before servicing; wear appropriate PPE
• Support the tub to relieve stress on the mounting points before removal
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten bolts evenly across all mount points
• Do not overtighten; follow for torque guidance

Restore clear visibility inside your appliance with this replacement light bulb. Replace a burned-out or flickering lamp so you can easily see contents and monitor operation when the door or light switch is activated. What it does:

• Provides illumination inside the appliance or work area
• Activates with the door switch or control panel/light switch
• Typical failure signs: no light, intermittent flicker, dim/blackened bulb, broken filament
• Helps with loading, unloading, and checking food or cycle status

• 1 replacement light bulb

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off circuit breaker) before servicing
• Allow the bulb and surrounding area to cool completely

Hinge center shim (spacer) that restores proper hinge spacing and helps keep appliance doors aligned. Use when a worn or missing center spacer causes door rubbing, misalignment, or uneven gaps. What it does:

• Maintains correct hinge spacing to keep the door aligned and gaps even.
• Replaces a worn or missing center spacer that can cause door rubbing or sagging.
• Supports smooth hinge movement so the door opens and closes consistently.
• Low-profile spacer—refer to the appliance diagram for exact placement.

• Disconnect power to the appliance and follow all safety precautions before beginning work.
• Remove the door per the manufacturer's instructions and note hinge orientation and any existing shims.
• Install the shim in the center hinge position, verify alignment, and test the door operation.

This mounting cup installs in the freezer liner to create a secure attachment point for the ice maker or its bracket. It helps keep the assembly stable and properly aligned so the ice maker mounts firmly and operates reliably. What it does:

• Provides the receiving anchor for the ice maker/bracket mounting screw
• Helps hold the ice maker level and reduces movement or vibration
• A worn, stripped, or missing cup can prevent the screw from tightening
• Common signs include a loose or sagging ice maker, rattling, or difficulty keeping the ice maker aligned

• 1 mounting cup

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
