This drip shield deflects and channels condensation and meltwater away from sensitive components to help reduce puddling and ice buildup inside the refrigerator. It's a direct-replacement exterior shield for the evaporator/defrost area. What it does

• Channels defrost meltwater into the drain path to prevent pooling under shelves or crispers.
• Helps reduce ice buildup by directing water away from cold surfaces.
• Protects internal components and wiring from moisture exposure.
• Can resolve symptoms like visible water inside the fresh-food section or intermittent dripping.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Typically installs with a few screws or snap tabs; keep fasteners from the original part for reassembly.
• Handle gently to avoid cracking the plastic; replace if warped or damaged.

The GE access cover is an OEM replacement part responsible for covering the compressor area on a refrigerator. This panel is located on the rear or bottom of the refrigerator and provides easy access to the compressor and condenser coils and prevents dirt and debris from entering the compressor area. When this part becomes damaged, it can lead to issues such as poor cooling performance, excessive noise from the compressor area, or even compressor overheating.

Symptoms of a bad access cover include:

• Visible cracks, breaks, or deformation in the cover
• Difficulty in securing the cover properly in place
• Increased dust or debris buildup inside the refrigerator
• Exposed internal components

Causes of a bad access cover can include accidental impacts, wear and tear from frequent removal and reinstallation, and environmental factors like temperature fluctuations or moisture exposure.

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