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 ice deflector guides ice cubes from the icemaker into the ice bin to help keep ice delivery consistent and reduce cube jams or spills. It's a simple replacement that restores proper ice routing in compatible refrigerators. What it does:

• Directs ice cubes from the icemaker into the ice bin for orderly dispensing
• Helps prevent ice clumping and blockages that can stop ice flow
• Keeps ice moving away from the icemaker assembly and into the bin
• Restores proper alignment and function after a cracked or missing deflector

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing to avoid electrical or mechanical injury
• Remove the ice bin or access panel per your model's service instructions to reach the deflector
• Part typically snaps or slides into place; reuse existing fasteners unless new hardware is supplied
• After installation, reconnect power and run the icemaker through a cycle; discard any ice made during the repair if contamination is suspected

This trivet shelf is the shelf insert that adds a usable storage level inside the compartment. Replace a missing or damaged shelf to restore organization and keep items off the liner surface for better use of space.

• Provides stable support for food packages and containers
• Rests on existing side supports or brackets inside the compartment
• Replace when the original shelf is missing, bent, broken, or won't sit level
• Restores the intended storage layout and airflow

• Clear the area by removing or shifting nearby items
• Align the shelf with the side supports and seat both sides fully before loading
• Wear gloves and avoid forcing the shelf into place
• Confirm the shelf sits level and is secure before use

This flat spacer installs on the refrigerator or freezer door hinge. It sets the correct clearance and height between the hinge and door so the door swings smoothly and seals properly. Replace worn or missing spacers to restore alignment. What it does:

• Maintains proper spacing between the hinge and door
• Helps keep the door level and aligned for a consistent seal
• Reduces rubbing or binding as the door opens and closes
• Typical symptoms when worn or missing: door sits low/uneven, rubs the cabinet, won't close reliably, or shows gaps/condensation at the gasket

• 1 flat spacer

• Disconnect power and remove items from the door to reduce weight
• Support the door before removing hinge fasteners; lift the door slightly as needed
• Install the new spacer in the same position/order as the original spacers and washers
• Reinstall and tighten the hinge; readjust if necessary

This emitter cover is the molded housing that shields and positions the infrared emitter for the refrigerator's ice level optics. Replacing a cracked or missing cover helps protect the board and keep the beam path clear for reliable ice making. What it does:

• Shields the emitter board and lens from moisture, frost, and debris
• Aligns the infrared beam path across the ice bin to the receiver
• Helps secure and position the ice level optics assembly
• Common symptoms: broken/missing cover, intermittent or no ice production due to optics misalignment or obstruction

• 1 emitter cover

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the ice bin to access the optics components
• Release the old cover's retaining tabs or fastener and lift it off; avoid touching board components
• Position and secure the new cover, then restore power and test ice maker operation

This small, spring-action push latch mounts in trim or liner to secure a flip-down compartment door or cover. Replacing a worn latch restores a positive close and smooth push-to-open operation to the affected door or panel.

• Provides the push-to-latch/push-to-release catch for a small door or cover
• Helps prevent nuisance pop-opens and rattling
• Common symptoms: door/cover won't stay shut, latch feels loose, cracked or missing latch
• Restores proper engagement and closing feel

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting
• Open the compartment; depress retaining tabs or gently pry the old latch straight out
• Match orientation and snap the new latch fully into the opening
• Test operation: close to latch, press to release

This coupling is the small connector that links a drive motor to its mating component, transferring rotation so the appliance operates smoothly. Replacing a cracked or stripped coupling restores reliable drive and helps prevent further wear.

• Connects the motor shaft to the driven part to transmit torque
• Maintains alignment to reduce wobble and slippage
• Failure signs can include no movement, intermittent operation, clicking/grinding, or visible cracks/rounding
• Restores consistent motion of the connected part once replaced

• Disconnect power (and shut off water/gas if applicable) before servicing
• Access the drive area and remove any covers/tray/drive components as needed
• Pull the old coupling straight off the keyed or D-shaped shaft; clean and inspect the shaft
• Align and press the new coupling fully onto the shaft, reassemble, and test

Ice stripper removes ice cubes from the ice maker mold so the dispenser or storage bin fills properly. Replacing a worn or broken stripper helps the ice maker eject cubes cleanly and reduces ice jams or stuck cubes. What it does:

• Pushes or guides harvested cubes out of the ice mold into the bin during the ice maker's harvest cycle.
• Prevents cubes from sticking in the mold; a damaged stripper can cause incomplete ejection or leftover ice in the mold.
• Works with the ice maker's ejector mechanism to maintain consistent cube release and storage.
• A faulty or broken stripper may lead to noisy operation, partial fills, or visible ice build-up in the mold.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Remove the ice maker or access panel per the manufacturer's instructions to reach the stripper; keep small parts and screws organized.
• Inspect the ice mold and surrounding components for damage or ice build-up; clear ice before installing the new stripper.
• After installation, restore power and run a test harvest cycle to ensure proper cube ejection.
