This top-closed thimble is a small protective plug that presses into a cabinet opening to cap and finish the hole, helping prevent abrasion and limiting air or moisture leaks for reliable appliance performance.

• Caps and seals an unused hole/opening in the liner or cabinet
• Shields edges to help protect nearby wiring or tubing from chafing
• Helps reduce drafts and moisture migration that can contribute to frost, condensation, or temperature swings
• Replace if cracked, brittle, loose, missing, or if you notice gaps or rubbing noises

• Disconnect power; if applicable, turn off the water supply
• Access the opening, remove the old thimble/plug, and clean the area
• Align and press the new thimble into the hole until fully seated and flush; avoid pinching wires or tubing
• Restore power/water and verify a snug fit

This hinge cover screw fastens the hinge cover in place, helping keep it secure and protecting the hinge components beneath. Replace a missing or stripped screw to stop the cover from loosening or rattling.

• Secures the hinge cover to the door/cabinet hinge
• Helps protect hinge hardware and wiring under the cover
• Replaces stripped, rusted, or missing hardware
• Common symptoms: loose or missing hinge cover, vibration or rattling at the hinge area

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing near the hinge area
• Use the correct screwdriver; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Align the cover properly and tighten snugly—do not overtighten to prevent stripping
• Keep the door closed during work to minimize movement

Rear evaporator fan motor bracket secures the evaporator fan motor to the refrigerator cabinet, maintaining airflow over the coils for efficient cooling. Replaces a bent or broken mounting bracket so the fan runs steadily. What it does:

• Holds the evaporator fan motor in the correct position to maintain steady rotation and consistent airflow across the evaporator coils.
• Prevents the motor from rubbing against the housing or fan blades, reducing noise and vibration.
• Common replacement when bracket is cracked, corroded, or bent — symptoms include noisy fan operation, intermittent fan movement, or reduced cooling performance.
• Restores proper motor alignment to help prevent premature motor wear.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Remove the evaporator cover or access panel to reach the bracket; retain original mounting hardware unless replacements are provided.
• Ensure the fan blades spin freely and the motor is undamaged before reassembly; ensure the bracket seats securely and the fan does not contact the housing.
• If the motor or fan blade shows damage, replace those parts separately rather than relying on the bracket alone.
