• Restores proper alignment so the grille sits flush with surrounding trim
• Works as a direct replacement for a worn, cracked or missing grille retainer

• One grille clip (single plastic retainer)

• Unplug the appliance or shut off power before accessing the grille area
• Remove the grille or access panel per the appliance manual to reach clip locations
• Press the new clip into the slot until it snaps; replace panel and confirm secure fit
• If other clips are damaged, replace all affected retainers for a uniform, secure fit

This hinge cover replaces the plastic trim that snaps over the refrigerator door hinge to restore appearance and protect the hinge area from dust and dings. Fits the bisque/color-matched hinge opening for a clean finish. What it does:

• Covers and protects the door hinge housing from dirt, moisture, and everyday wear
• Restores cosmetic appearance where a chipped or missing cover exposes the hinge
• Helps prevent accidental contact with hinge hardware for safer daily use
• Matches bisque-colored trim so the door looks factory-original

• One hinge cover (bisque) as shown

• Unplug the appliance or turn off power at the breaker before servicing if work near electrical components is required
• Support or stabilize the door before removing hinge trim to avoid door movement
• Typically snaps into place or secures with the original fasteners; keep existing screws/clips and reuse if present

This cover fits over the refrigerator auger motor to protect internal components and help guide ice through the dispenser. It keeps the motor area enclosed to reduce debris intrusion and supports smooth auger movement. What it does

• Protects the auger motor and gearbox from ice, frost, and debris
• Helps guide ice from the bin into the auger for consistent dispensing
• Common symptom: reduced or intermittent ice dispensing, unusual noises from the dispenser area

• One cover

• High-level replacement — remove power to the refrigerator before starting
• Handle components gently to avoid damaging the auger or wiring
• If the auger still doesn't turn after replacement, check the motor, wiring, and control components

A replacement gasket that seals the freezer air duct to maintain proper airflow and temperature control inside the freezer compartment. Helps reduce frost buildup and keeps cold air flowing where the appliance needs it. What it does:

• Seals the freezer duct opening to prevent cold-air leaks and minimize frost accumulation
• Restores correct airflow between freezer compartments for more consistent temperatures
• Commonly replaced when you see frost/ice buildup around the duct or poor cooling in the freezer
• Helps improve efficiency by keeping cold air inside the freezer cavity

• One freezer duct gasket

• Designed to fit into a duct opening; inspect mounting area and clean before installing the new gasket
• Use gloves to protect hands from sharp sheet metal and avoid damaging the new gasket during installation

A rubber tubing grommet that fits a factory hole to protect and cushion refrigerant/water tubing and help prevent chafing or leaks. Simple, durable replacement that restores a sealed pass-through for tubing. What it does:

• Cushions and protects tubing where it passes through sheet metal or plastic openings
• Helps prevent chafing, rubbing and premature tubing wear
• Provides a cleaner, more secure tubing pass-through to reduce leak risk
• Commonly used on water lines, refrigerant lines or small-diameter tubing in appliances

• One tubing grommet

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing the appliance
• Remove access panels as needed to reach the tubing hole; press-fit the grommet into the opening and route tubing through the slit
• Replace grommet if cracked, torn or excessively worn; ensure tubing is properly seated in the grommet
• Do not use sharp tools that could damage the grommet or tubing during installation

This is a replacement screw used to secure appliance components and panels so parts stay properly attached for safe operation. It's a direct-fit fastener matching OEM form and function. What it does

• Secures panels, trim, or internal components to prevent rattling or gaps
• Restores factory attachment where a screw is missing or stripped
• Helps maintain proper alignment of housing and service access
• Suitable when repair requires original-fit fasteners

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before servicing to avoid shock
• Use the matching screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Thread carefully and avoid overtightening to prevent damage to threads or plastic parts
• Keep removed screws organized; replace only the screws that match the original locations

This water tube fastener secures the refrigerator's water tube/line to the cabinet or chassis, keeping the tubing routed and stable to prevent kinks and inconsistent water flow. Simple replacement helps restore proper line routing and reduces vibration noise. What it does:

• Holds the water inlet/dispenser tube in place to prevent movement and rubbing
• Keeps tubing routed away from sharp edges and hot components
• Helps prevent kinks that can restrict water flow to the dispenser/ice maker
• Reduces vibration-related noise from loose tubing

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before replacing any water-line hardware.
• Remove any access panels needed to reach the existing clip; use hand tools to unclip or remove fastener.
