Hss251fmdww Parts

This assembly meters cold air from the freezer into the fresh-food compartment and provides temperature feedback to the controls. Replacing a failing unit restores proper airflow and more stable, even cooling performance.

• Motorized damper door opens and closes to regulate airflow from the freezer; stuck-open can cause freezing near the vent, stuck-closed can leave the fresh-food section warm.
• Integrated thermistor senses compartment temperature and signals the control board; a failed sensor can cause erratic or inconsistent temperatures.
• Helps balance airflow between compartments to maintain set temperatures.
• Common clues include clicking/chattering from the damper area, weak or constant airflow, warm spots, or items freezing on upper shelves.

• Disconnect power before servicing.
• Access the damper through the fresh-food air duct; remove shelves and the duct cover as needed.
• Disconnect the wire harness; route and seat wiring and seals in the same positions during reassembly to prevent air leaks.
• Restore power and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize.

The Overload Ptcr Combo is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is responsible for regulating the electrical current flowing to the compressor. It helps prevent damage to the compressor and extends its lifespan.

A bad overload ptcr combo can be caused by power surges, electrical malfunctions, or normal wear and tear over time.

Symptoms of a bad overload ptcr combo include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly.
• The compressor making unusual noises or not running at all.
• Excessive heat around the compressor area.
• Frequent tripping of the circuit breaker.

Replace your worn-out or damaged overload ptcr combo with this genuine OEM part and ensure the efficient and reliable operation of your refrigerator's compressor. This GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 
 

Size: 8-18 AB TSQ 5/8 SS

This is a grommet and it is intended for use on refrigerators and freezers. This is a genuine replacement part made by General Electric. A new grommet might be needed if the current one is visibly worn out or damaged in any way. If there are noises from vibration coming from the lower back area of the fridge there might be need for a new grommet. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer, and it is sold individually. It is compatible with refrigerators and freezers, or units with a compressor and is made by General Electric.

• Helps reduce vibration noise and loose or misaligned parts
• Maintains proper fit of guards, kickplates, or internal panels

• Disconnect power; turn off water supply if working near water lines
• Match to the original fastener to size and thread
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly, not excessively
• If threading into plastic, avoid overtightening to prevent damage

Front mounting grommet.

This small donut-shaped gasket fits where specified in your refrigerator's parts diagram to create a tight seal between mating components. Replacing a worn gasket helps stop minor leaks and restore a secure fit.

• Forms a tight seal at the designated joint or fitting
• Helps prevent seepage or drips from a compromised connection
• Replaces a brittle, cracked, flattened, or missing original gasket
• Supports proper assembly alignment and a snug fit

• Unplug the refrigerator and, if servicing the water system, shut off the water supply
• Note the gasket's original placement and orientation before removal
• Clean mating surfaces; lightly moisten the new gasket to ease seating
• Reassemble without overtightening; restore power/water and check for leaks

This air inlet cover assembly fits over the duct where cold air enters the fresh food compartment. It shields the opening and guides airflow to help maintain even cooling and reduce cold blasts directly in front of the vent. What it does:

• Covers and protects the air inlet opening between the freezer and fresh food sections
• Helps direct and diffuse cold air entering the refrigerator compartment
• Supports consistent temperatures by promoting proper airflow
• Replace if the cover is cracked, warped, missing, or won't stay secured—issues that can lead to uneven cooling or items freezing near the vent

• One air inlet cover assembly

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove shelves/drawers as needed to access the vent on the fresh food back wall
• Remove mounting screws or release tabs to take off the old cover; transfer any reusable insulation or clips from the original if present
• Seat and secure the new cover; ensure the damper area is unobstructed before restoring power

This freezer shelf module replaces a broken or missing shelf to restore stable, level storage in the freezer. It installs in the factory side supports to help keep frozen foods organized and easy to access. What it does:

• Provides a sturdy, level surface for storing items in the freezer
• Replaces shelves that are cracked, warped, broken, or missing
• Helps prevent items from tipping or falling between levels
• Restores intended spacing and organization inside the freezer

• Disconnect power before starting
• Clear the area; let the cavity warm slightly to reduce plastic brittleness, and wear gloves—handle any glass with care
• Remove the old shelf. Align the new shelf with the side support slots/tabs and seat it fully so it sits level
• Do not force into place; ensure it's fully engaged in the supports

Size: 10-32 GXTT FLP.595 S
