This air damper actuator is the motorized control that opens and closes the refrigerator air damper to regulate airflow between compartments, helping maintain even temperatures and proper cooling performance. What it does:

• Rotates the damper door to direct cold air into the refrigerator or freezer compartments
• Helps balance compartment temperatures for food safety and efficiency
• Can prevent overcooling or warming when functioning correctly
• Failure symptoms may include uneven temperatures, reduced cooling, or a damper that won't open/close

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Typically mounts to the damper housing with screws and connects to a wiring harness; verify harness alignment before reconnecting
• Handle the actuator and damper door gently to avoid damage to the gear teeth
