• Transfer any spacers/shims in their original order to maintain alignment
• Tighten fasteners securely and check door swing and seal after installation

This air diverter is a duct component that directs and balances airflow inside the refrigerator. Replacing a cracked or missing diverter helps restore proper cooling performance and reduce frost or condensation around air passages.

• Guides cold air from the evaporator through the intended duct path
• Helps maintain even temperatures between compartments
• Improves airflow seal and direction to reduce warm-air bypass
• Common symptoms: uneven cooling, weak airflow, frost/condensation near ducts, or visible damage to the diverter

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove shelves/drawers and the interior panel to access the diverter per your model's service information
• Note orientation and transfer any reusable screws/clips
• Do not overtighten fasteners into plastic; confirm unobstructed airflow before restoring power

Fresh food side. For the same part in black, purchase WR11X10009.

Freezer side.
