Gfe28jelfds Parts

The LED and Cover Assembly is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component illuminates the interior compartments and includes light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with a protective transparent cover. It provides enhanced visibility of stored items through energy-efficient white lighting.

Causes of failure can be related to the electronic operation of the LEDs themselves wearing out over the lifespan of many on/off cycles. The cover plastic may develop cracks or scratches from regular cleaning.  

Symptoms include:

• Dimming or flickering lights that no longer shine brightly
• Discoloration of the cover material obstructing light transmission
• Loose or detached cover that won’t stay securely fastened 

This GE OEM replacement restores clear illumination for stored items. With long-lasting LED technology behind a shatter-resistant shield, it ensures dependable visibility during nighttime fridge access. Compatible with later produced Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore refrigeration models as well.

This clutch spring restores proper tension in the dispenser drive so the auger can engage and disengage as designed. Replacing a fatigued or broken spring helps bring back smooth, reliable ice dispensing performance. What it does:

• Maintains the correct preload on the dispenser clutch for positive auger engagement
• Allows controlled slip to protect the auger motor during jams
• Can address loud clicking/grinding from the ice dispenser when activated

• 1 clutch spring

• Disconnect power before servicing; remove the ice bin to access the auger/clutch area
• Note the spring's orientation during disassembly for correct reinstallation
• Control small retainers/clips that may be released when removing the clutch components
• After installation, rotate the auger by hand to ensure smooth clutch action before restoring power

This duct door assembly is the refrigerator's air damper door. It opens and closes to control cold-air flow from the freezer into the fresh-food compartment, helping maintain stable temperatures and reduce warm spots or localized frosting.

• Regulates airflow between freezer and refrigerator compartments
• Helps the unit reach and maintain set temperatures
• Seals the duct when closed to limit moisture and frost migration
• Also called an air diffuser/damper door; failure may show as poor airflow, fridge too warm, items freezing near the vent, or clicking from the damper area

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the air duct/diffuser in the fresh-food section and remove its cover as needed
• Note the door's orientation; transfer any reusable seals or clips from the original if applicable
• After installation, the door moves freely and the vent path is unobstructed

This Mullion Spring Sleeve is the small bushing that fits over the door mullion (center flipper) spring. It guides the pivot and reduces wear so the flap folds smoothly and helps maintain a tight seal between refrigerator doors.

• Helps the mullion fold out on opening and spring back to close the center gap
• Wear or loss may present as a loose or binding flipper, clicking/grinding, or a gap that prevents a full seal
• Replacing the sleeve can help restore proper flipper action without replacing the entire mullion assembly

• Disconnect power and clear items from the door; remove the mullion from its top and bottom pivots, noting the spring orientation
• Slide off the worn sleeve from the spring/pin and install the new sleeve in the same position
• Reinstall the spring and mullion; verify the flipper opens/closes freely and the center seal makes full contact
• Wear cut-resistant gloves; edges around the door and hinge can be sharp

The Coiled Cold Water Tank is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This part is responsible for storing and cooling the water that is dispensed through the refrigerator's water dispenser. It ensures that you have access to refreshing cold water whenever you need it. The coiled design allows for efficient cooling and helps maintain the desired temperature of the water.

A bad coiled cold water tank can occur due to wear and tear, leaks, or other factors. If you notice symptoms such as water not being dispensed properly, frozen water, or leaks around the tank, it may be time to replace it with a new one.

Symptoms of a bad coiled cold water tank include:

• Improper water dispensing
• Frozen water tank
• Leaks around the tank

Ensure the availability of dispensed cold water by replacing the faulty coiled cold water tank with this genuine OEM part.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
