This evaporator cover gasket seals the evaporator cover to help maintain proper airflow and reduce moisture intrusion in the freezer compartment. It restores the evaporator cover seal to help prevent frost buildup and maintain consistent cooling. What it does:

• Seals the evaporator cover to limit air/moisture exchange that can cause frost and ice buildup.
• Helps maintain designed airflow over the evaporator for more consistent temperature control.
• Reduces the chance of excessive frost on evaporator fins and associated freezer performance issues.
• Commonly used when you see frost accumulation, frequent defrosting, or reduced freezer efficiency.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work to avoid electrical shock.
• Allow the evaporator area to fully defrost and dry before installing the new gasket.
• Remove the evaporator cover carefully; take note of fastener locations and any clips for correct reassembly.
• Inspect surrounding components and replace any damaged parts to ensure a proper seal.

This is a replacement 1/4-20 threaded screw used to secure appliance components and panels. It restores proper fastening where a matching screw is missing, loose, or stripped and helps stop rattling or misalignment. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, and assemblies to maintain proper alignment and reduce vibration
• Replaces missing or damaged fasteners that cause loose or rattling parts
• Works wherever a 1/4-20 threaded screw is specified by the manufacturer
• Simple mechanical fastener—no electrical or calibration changes required

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid injury
• Use the matching driver and thread engagement; do not overtighten to prevent stripping
• Verify screw length and head type match the original before installing
• If threads are damaged, repair or replace the mating component rather than forcing the screw

The Compressor is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool refrigerators. Located inside the refrigerator cabinet, the compressor circulates refrigerant throughout the cooling system, regulating temperatures inside food compartments. Its efficient operation is crucial to food freshness and refrigerator function.

Symptoms of a bad compressor include: 

• Elevated interior temperatures unable to be maintained  
• Louder than normal buzzing or humming sounds coming from inside
• Frost or ice building up in areas where it typically would not  
• Refrigerator lights repeatedly cycling on and off

Causes of compressor failure involve normal wear of internal parts over time, loss of refrigerant allowing components to overwork, or disruption in the flow and pressure of circulating coolant. 

This OEM Whirlpool part is compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore refrigerator models.
