Gc3shexn502 Parts

A replacement sleeve coupling that helps connect components in the drive assembly so the appliance transfers rotational force smoothly. Use this part to restore proper tumble/spin and reduce noise or slipping from a worn sleeve. What it does

• Couples two drive components to transmit motor rotation to the drum/transmission.
• Replaces worn or scored sleeves that can cause slipping, rough rotation, or reduced spin/tumble.
• Can help reduce noise and vibration caused by excess play or metal-on-metal contact.
• Restores proper alignment between mating shafts when the original sleeve is damaged.

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before starting any repair.
• Basic disassembly of the cabinet, access panels, or drum may be required.
• Inspect mating shafts, bearings, and seals for wear; replace any damaged components to prevent repeat failure.

This fan scroll is the plastic housing that surrounds the evaporator fan in the freezer section. It directs air across the evaporator coils and into the ducts, helping your refrigerator move cold air evenly and maintain stable temperatures.

• Channels airflow from the evaporator fan through the coils and into the air ducts
• Helps balance cooling between freezer and fresh food compartments
• Positions the fan motor and blade for proper clearance and reduced vibration
• If cracked, warped, or missing, you may notice weak airflow, temperature swings, rattling noises, or frost buildup on the evaporator cover

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove freezer shelves/bins and the rear panel to access the fan area
• Transfer the existing fan motor, blade, and hardware to the new scroll
• The fan spins freely and wiring is clear before reassembly and restoring power

This support mounts in the dispenser area to secure the ice housing assembly. It helps keep the chute and door properly aligned so ice dispenses smoothly and the opening seals as designed.

• Supports and positions the ice housing/chute assembly in the freezer door
• Helps maintain proper alignment and sealing of the ice door/flapper
• Reduces wobble or flex that can affect dispensing performance
• Typical signs it may be needed: loose or misaligned dispenser housing, ice or air leaking at the chute, frost buildup around the dispenser, inconsistent ice dispensing

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the dispenser trim/control to access the housing; handle wiring and tabs carefully
• Remove mounting fasteners, replace the support, and transfer any reusable hardware
• Reassemble, restore power, and test ice dispensing and chute seal

This is the meat pan cover assembly used above the deli/meat drawer. It provides a stable shelf surface and supports the drawer below, helping organize items and contain spills to keep the fresh food section cleaner.

• Supports the deli/meat drawer and serves as the shelf surface above it
• Helps contain minor spills and prevents drips to lower compartments
• Common signs it may need replacement: cracked or sagging cover, broken supports, or the deli drawer not sliding/aligning properly

• Unplug the refrigerator before starting
• Remove the deli/meat drawer and any items resting on the cover
• Lift out the damaged cover assembly and set the new assembly in place
• Ensure the cover is fully seated on its supports, then reinstall the drawer

This replacement washer is a small hardware spacer used in appliance assemblies. It provides a smooth bearing surface under a bolt or nut to distribute load and maintain proper spacing so components stay secure, aligned, and quiet.

• Distributes clamp load to protect mating parts and prevent loosening
• Maintains proper spacing/clearance for correct alignment
• Helps reduce wobble, scraping, or vibration when the original washer is worn or missing
• Visual signs include distortion, cracks, corrosion, or a fastener that no longer tightens securely

• Disconnect power before servicing; for laundry or dishwashing products, also shut off the water supply
• Note the original hardware stack-up and orientation; install the new washer in the same position
• Inspect the bolt/nut and mating surfaces; replace any damaged hardware and tighten per manufacturer guidance
• After reassembly, run a brief test and check for unusual noise or movement

Color: White. Size: 2 oz. can. Porcelain touch-up paint.

This replacement screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and components. Using the correct size restores a snug fit to reduce vibration, prevent loosening, and keep assemblies properly aligned during operation. What it does:

• Fastens sheet metal and component brackets in designated locations
• Replaces missing, stripped, or corroded hardware
• Helps eliminate rattling and vibration from loose panels
• Maintains proper alignment of covers and assemblies

• 1 screw

• Disconnect electrical power; shut off water or gas supplies if applicable
• Match length/thread to the original; replace one fastener at a time to preserve alignment
• Start by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the correct driver size
• Snug firmly but do not overtighten to prevent stripping

This replacement wiper is the OEM-style rubber blade that clears residue from a sealing surface to help restore proper closure and reduce moisture buildup. Install to replace torn, cracked, or worn wiper material for better sealing performance. What it does:

• Wipes water and debris from the seal or track to help maintain a tight closure.
• Reduces leaks, moisture accumulation, and related odors or frost build-up.
• Stops rubbing or improper closing caused by a damaged or missing wiper.
• Restores the intended contact between the seal and mating surface for reliable performance.

• Disconnect power and follow the appliance manufacturer's safety instructions before servicing.
• Typically installs by sliding or snapping into the wiper channel; use care to avoid stretching or tearing the rubber.
• Clean the mating surface and inspect the retainer or track for damage before installing; replace any damaged retainers per OEM instructions.

Color: Black. Size: 12 oz. Acrylic appliance aerosol can spray paint.

This replacement blade is the rotating element used within the appliance assembly to deliver the intended action. Installing a new blade restores smooth, efficient operation when the original is cracked, bent, worn, or missing.

• Provides the mechanical action required by the assembly (rotation/agitation)
• Helps maintain consistent performance and smooth operation
• Common failure signs: rattling or scraping noises, vibration/wobble
• Other symptoms: reduced performance in that section of the appliance, visible chips, cracks, or deformation

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water supply if applicable
• Wear cut-resistant gloves; edges may be sharp
• Note the original blade's orientation and spacing before removal; install the new blade the same way
• Hand-rotate after installation to ensure free movement and clearance before restoring power

This flipper spring returns the refrigerator's ice dispenser door (chute flapper) to the closed position after dispensing. It helps keep warm air and moisture out to minimize frost at the chute and reduce ice clumping in the bin.

• Provides the closing tension for the ice chute door/flapper
• Helps maintain a proper seal at the dispenser opening
• If worn or broken, you may notice the flapper not closing fully
• Frost/condensation around the chute or ice clumping in the bucket may occur

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove dispenser trim/control to access the ice chute door assembly; note spring orientation and anchor points
• Install the new spring in the same orientation; the flapper moves freely and closes under spring tension
• Wear gloves and use caution—metal edges in the dispenser area can be sharp

This thermostat retainer clip secures the defrost thermostat to the evaporator tubing in your refrigerator or freezer, maintaining firm contact for accurate temperature sensing and dependable defrost operation.

• Holds the thermostat firmly against the evaporator line for proper temperature feedback
• Helps prevent a loose or dangling thermostat that contribute to frost buildup and poor defrost performance
• Restores correct mounting when the original clip is cracked, bent, or missing
• Common signs include a broken clip or a thermostat not attached to the coil

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the evaporator compartment; remove accumulated frost/ice as needed without prying on coil fins
• Position the thermostat body flat against the tubing and snap the retainer over it, avoiding pinched wires or damaged fins
