A single special-purpose screw used to secure appliance components where a standard screw won't fit. Replaces missing or damaged fasteners to restore proper fit and reduce movement or rattling. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets or small assemblies that require a uniquely shaped or sized screw.
• Restores proper alignment and fit when a factory screw is missing or damaged.
• Helps stop rattling, vibration, or loose parts caused by worn or absent fasteners.
• Matches the OEM fastening point to ensure reliable holding strength for the intended location.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Use the correct driver bit to avoid stripping the screw head; do not force or overtighten.
• Handle sharp metal edges and panels carefully; wear gloves if needed.
• Replace all affected screws to maintain secure mounting.

This service wrench is a replacement hand tool used to loosen and tighten appliance fasteners during repairs, making component removal and reassembly easier and more reliable for technicians and DIYers. What it does:

• Provides the correct fit and leverage for specific appliance fasteners to prevent rounding or damage
• Helps remove and install parts that are secured with hard-to-reach or tight fasteners
• Useful when a loose or seized fastener prevents normal appliance operation or maintenance
• Designed for repair tasks where the original tool is lost or worn

• Disconnect power and gas before starting any repair
• Use appropriate personal protective equipment; avoid excessive force to prevent tool or fastener damage
• Follow manufacturer instructions for the specific repair task
• Keep removed fasteners and small parts in a safe container to avoid loss

This rubber grommet seals the suction/water pipe where it passes through the appliance cabinet to reduce leaks and dampen vibration. It restores a tight, durable seal to help prevent water intrusion and rattling. What it does:

• Cushions and seals the suction/water pipe where it passes through sheet metal or plastic.
• Reduces vibration and pipe movement that can cause noise or wear.
• Helps prevent water leaks or moisture entry at the cabinet penetration.
• Maintains a proper fit for tubing routing and component alignment.

• One rubber suction pipe grommet.

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before servicing.
• Remove access panels as needed to reach the pipe penetration; press grommet into opening and route pipe through center.
• Replace any brittle, torn, or deformed grommets; do not force a damaged grommet into place.

This PTC-style start relay mounts on the compressor and briefly powers the start winding so the compressor can start reliably. Replacing a weak or heat-damaged relay can restore cooling performance and stop repeated clicking from the compressor area.

• Supplies momentary power to the compressor's start winding at startup
• Opens automatically as the PTC warms, removing the start winding from the circuit
• Symptoms of a failing relay: compressor won't start, repeated clicking/humming, and rising temperatures
• Visual clues can include discoloration, melting, or a burnt odor on the relay housing

• Disconnect power and remove the rear lower access panel to reach the compressor
• Note wire locations and terminal orientation before removal; transfer wires one-for-one
• Push the new relay fully onto the compressor pins until seated securely
• Inspect the overload protector and wire terminals for heat damage; replace any burnt connectors before restoring power

This compressor overload is the start-protection device that helps the refrigerator compressor run safely and restart after an overcurrent or overload. Replacing a faulty overload restores reliable compressor starting and helps protect the compressor motor. What it does:

• Protects the compressor by interrupting power during an electrical overload or locked-rotor condition
• Works with the start relay to allow the compressor motor to start and run properly
• Common symptom: refrigerator not cooling because compressor won't start
• Other symptom: humming or buzzing from the compressor or intermittent starting

• One compressor overload (start device)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Handle terminals carefully; install on the compressor per OEM orientation and secure connections

A self-tapping screw used to fasten appliance panels and components where a threaded hole is formed as the screw is driven. Provides a secure hold for trim, brackets, and light assemblies during repairs. What it does:

• Cuts its own mating thread in sheet metal or thin plastic to secure panels and brackets
• Helps hold trim, access panels, or internal components in place
• Commonly used where a tapped hole is not present or repair requires a replacement fastener
• Can prevent loose parts and rattles caused by missing or damaged screws

• Unplug the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical or mechanical hazards
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the screw head
• Start the screw straight and apply steady pressure; do not overtighten to avoid cracking plastic or stripping metal
• Replace only with the exact part number to ensure proper fit and function

This folding refrigerator shelf assembly provides a stable, fold-down shelf surface that frees up space for taller items when needed. It replaces a damaged or missing shelf to restore usable storage and flexible organization. What it does:

• Provides a sturdy, flat shelf surface for storing food and containers
• Folds down to create extra vertical clearance for tall items and large containers
• Replaces cracked, chipped, or sagging shelves that no longer support items safely
• Helps restore proper shelf alignment when the original assembly is warped or broken

• Unplug or power off the appliance before starting any repairs
• Handle glass and plastic parts carefully; wear gloves to protect hands from sharp edges
• Remove food and all items from the area before replacing the shelf
• Verify clips/track alignment and secure the shelf fully into its supports before use

This ice chute cap gasket seals the ice chute cap to help keep ice contained and reduce air or moisture intrusion in the dispenser area. It restores a tight, flexible seal for proper ice dispensing and storage. What it does:

• Seals around the ice chute cap to help prevent ice spills and migration
• Limits warm air and moisture from entering the ice compartment
• Helps reduce ice clumping and sticking by maintaining a stable chute seal
• Restores proper fit where a worn or torn gasket allows gaps

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the gasket
• Remove the chute cap carefully, clean mating surfaces, and press new gasket fully into place for an even seal
• Inspect surrounding trim for damage and handle the gasket gently to avoid tears
• If adhesive or fasteners are present on your model, use only OEM-recommended methods

A small metal C-shaped retaining clip that secures shafts, pins or components in place to prevent unwanted movement. Simple, durable hardware that restores proper fit and alignment for the part it secures. What it does:

• Holds shafts, pins or rods in position to prevent axial movement or disengagement
• Restores secure attachment where a worn or missing clip allows parts to shift or fall out
• Used in moving assemblies to maintain alignment and proper function
• Fits in a groove or slot and provides spring tension for a tight hold

• One C-clip (retaining clip)

• Inspect the mating groove/pin for burrs or damage before installing the clip
• Use appropriate snap-ring or pliers to compress/expand the clip as needed; wear eye protection
• Ensure the clip fully seats in its groove and that the retained component moves as intended
