This cable clamp secures refrigerator wiring to the cabinet, keeping harnesses organized and protected. Replacing a missing or damaged clamp helps prevent chafing and vibration noise while maintaining proper clearance from fans and other moving components.

• Anchors wire harnesses in their designed routing
• Helps prevent insulation wear from rubbing or vibration
• Keeps wires clear of sharp edges and moving parts
• Common signs it's needed: missing/broken clamp, loose or dangling wires, or new rattling/buzzing noises

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the clamp location and note original wire routing
• Position the clamp and secure with the existing fastener; do not overtighten
• Ensure wires aren't pinched and have clearance from the fan/compressor before restoring power

This solenoid saddle is a small mounting bracket that secures a refrigerator solenoid in the correct position. By preventing movement and misalignment, it helps the linked mechanism engage smoothly and consistently.

• Secures the solenoid to its housing or frame to prevent shifting
• Maintains proper alignment for reliable actuation
• A worn or broken saddle can cause buzzing/chattering and intermittent operation
• Restores stable mounting to help the connected mechanism work correctly

• Disconnect power; shut off water supply if working near water lines
• Access the solenoid assembly and note the original saddle's orientation
• Transfer the solenoid into the new saddle and reuse existing fasteners/clips
• Smooth operation before reassembling panels

This encoder board assembly interprets user input from the range/oven control console and sends the correct signals to the appliance control system, restoring reliable button/knob response and control selection behavior. What it does:

• Converts knob/button movements into electronic signals the main control can read
• Helps ensure accurate selection of temperature, modes and timers
• Common symptom: controls are unresponsive or selections don't register
• Common symptom: erratic or intermittent control behavior when using the console

• Disconnect power at the breaker before starting any work
• Handle the board carefully and avoid static discharge; ground yourself or use an anti-static strap
• Keep track of screws and mounting hardware; label harnesses or take photos before disconnecting
• Reconnect harnesses fully and test function before reassembling the console

Specs: 8-18 AB IHW 5/8 S

This capacitor sleeve kit insulates and protects the refrigerator's capacitor. Replacing a cracked or missing sleeve helps prevent chafing or contact with metal surfaces and wiring, supporting safe, reliable operation of the capacitor and nearby components.

• Provides electrical insulation to help prevent shorts if the capacitor contacts metal surfaces
• Adds abrasion protection and cushions the capacitor against vibration
• Restores proper fit/routing when the original sleeve is brittle, melted, or missing
• Common indications include exposed capacitor body or leads and visible rubbing marks on the old sleeve

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear gloves and eye protection
• Discharge the capacitor per service procedures before handling
• Note factory orientation/routing; slide the sleeve over the capacitor and position to clear sharp edges
• Re-secure the capacitor in its bracket/harness and verify clearance before restoring power

This 10-18 Hi/Lo hex-washer screw is a direct-use replacement fastener for appliance panels, brackets and components. It restores secure mounting and helps stop loose trim, rattling or parts that shift during use. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim pieces, mounting brackets and similar components that use a 10-18 thread with a hex-washer head
• Restores proper fit where screws are missing, stripped, or corroded
• Helps eliminate rattling, vibration noise, and misaligned parts caused by loose fasteners
• Matches OEM head and thread style for a correct mechanical fit in specified locations

• Turn power or gas to the appliance off before working on electrical or gas-equipped units; unplug when applicable
• Use the correct sized hex driver or socket to avoid rounding the head
• Tighten until snug—do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads or damaging thin sheet metal
• If replacing multiple fasteners in a load-bearing area, replace all to ensure even fit and alignment

This condenser fan mounting bracket secures the condenser fan motor and blade in the correct position to move air across the coils. Replacing a cracked or bent bracket restores stable mounting, reduces vibration, and helps maintain proper condenser airflow.

• Holds the condenser fan motor/blade assembly in alignment for proper airflow through the condenser
• Maintains clearance to prevent the fan blade from rubbing or contacting nearby components
• Helps reduce rattling, vibration, or scraping noises from the rear of the refrigerator
• Damage or misalignment can contribute to restricted condenser airflow and warmer temperatures

• Disconnect power and pull the refrigerator away from the wall to access the rear service area
• Remove the rear lower access panel; note wiring and hardware locations
• Support the fan motor/blade while removing the old bracket; transfer motor, blade, grommets, and screws to the new bracket
• The fan spins freely with proper clearance and correct airflow direction before reassembly

Color: White

This light shield protects and directs the interior lamp in the refrigerator fresh-food compartment, keeping the bulb covered and preventing direct contact while improving light distribution for easier viewing. What it does:

• Covers the interior lamp to prevent bare-bulb contact and protect food from accidental breakage
• Helps diffuse and direct light for more even illumination inside the fresh-food compartment
• Replaces cracked, yellowed, or missing shields that cause glare or reduced light output
• Fits behind the fresh-food compartment light assembly to maintain proper lamp placement

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Remove the existing shield carefully; avoid forcing plastic clips to prevent breakage
• Align tabs/clips and snap the replacement shield into place until fully seated

Size: 10-16 ab.

This SCR is a solid-state switching module that controls on/off power flow in select appliance circuits. Replacing a failed SCR helps stop intermittent operation and restores reliable switching for affected motors or heating elements. What it does:

• Regulates electrical switching in the control circuit to turn motors or heaters on and off.
• Used where a solid-state switch is required for smooth, repeatable control.
• Symptoms of a failing SCR: appliance won't start, runs intermittently, hums without operating, or a controlled circuit does not respond.
• Restores proper switching when the original SCR is shorted, open, or erratic.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning service; follow lockout/tagout procedures.
• Handle as an electronic component—avoid static discharge and protect the spade terminals from bending or contamination.
• Ensure correct orientation and secure mounting; reconnect wiring exactly as shown on the appliance wiring diagram.

Fresh food side. Color: white. For the same part in black, purchase WR02X10779.

Includes 12 screws. Size: 8-18 ab.
