Jrt173r Parts

Defrost timer that advances the refrigerator's defrost cycle at roughly six-hour intervals to help prevent excessive frost buildup and keep cooling consistent. Replaces a failed timer to restore regular defrost scheduling. What it does:

• Advances the defrost cycle so the heater can melt frost from the evaporator on a timed schedule.
• Helps prevent heavy ice buildup that can reduce airflow and cooling performance.
• Common symptoms of a failing timer: excessive frost or ice accumulation, compressor running constantly, or inconsistent temperatures.
• Works with mechanical defrost systems to alternate between cooling and defrost intervals.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
• Handle connectors and wiring carefully; ensure all terminals are fully seated.
• Mounting hardware and connector types can vary by model—retain original fasteners and note wiring positions before removal.

Radiant Glass (Quartz), Length (Approx) - 17-3/4, 400 watts

A single pop rivet used to secure sheet-metal parts and small brackets on appliances for a permanent, vibration-resistant hold. Replaces missing or damaged rivets to restore proper attachment without welding. What it does:

• Provides a permanent blind-rivet fastening point for panels, brackets and trim.
• Replaces rivets that are sheared, loose or missing and prevents rattling or misalignment.
• Ideal where a solid, tamper-resistant join is required and screws aren't suitable.
• Works with a compatible pop-rivet tool for quick installation.

• Drill out the old rivet carefully; use the proper size hole for the replacement rivet.
• Use a dedicated pop-rivet tool and wear eye protection during installation.

This run capacitor helps the dryer motor run smoothly by providing the motor with steady phase-shifted voltage during operation, improving start reliability and consistent spinning performance. What it does:

• Provides the motor with the necessary run-phase capacitance to maintain steady motor operation
• Can stop symptoms like a motor that hums, runs weakly, or struggles to keep the drum turning
• Helps prevent motor overheating and repeated start attempts caused by a failing capacitor
• Used wherever the motor's run capacitor is required for continuous operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to prevent shock
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals to avoid stored-charge shock
• Replace with the same part number/specifications; ensure terminals are secure and insulated

This bracket grommet cushions a component where it mounts to a bracket in your refrigerator. It isolates metal-to-metal contact to reduce vibration and rattling and helps keep parts aligned for quieter, reliable operation.

• Fits into a mounting bracket to provide a cushioned seat for a component
• Isolates vibration and reduces noise by preventing metal-to-metal contact
• Helps maintain secure mounting and proper alignment
• Common signs of wear: cracking, flattening, missing grommet, increased vibration or rattling

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water supply if working near water lines
• Access the bracket and support the mounted component to relieve weight
• Remove the worn grommet and press the new grommet fully into the bracket opening
• Reassemble and snug fasteners—do not overtighten, so the grommet can isolate vibration

Plastic End Cap For Door Shelves. Right And Left Are Same. Order 2 For Each Shelf.

This door shelf trim replaces a damaged or cracked plastic trim on a refrigerator door shelf to restore a secure edge and improve appearance. It helps keep door bin contents in place and prevents sharp edges or gaps. What it does:

• Replaces worn, cracked, or broken trim that allows items to shift or snag
• Restores the protective edge of a door shelf to help keep contents contained
• Improves the finished look of the refrigerator door interior
• Helps prevent small items from falling out of the door bin

• High-level replacement; may require removing the door bin or trim piece for access
• Use basic hand tools and follow OEM instructions
• Unplug or disconnect power to the appliance before performing any repairs
• Inspect surrounding shelf components for additional damage before reassembly

Specs: 8 - 18 x 0.500

This is a replacement mounting screw for securing appliance components and panels. It restores proper fastening where a missing or stripped screw causes loose parts or rattling. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, or small components to restore secure attachment
• Prevents vibration and rattling caused by loose or missing fasteners
• Replaces stripped or lost factory screws to maintain original fit
• Matches OEM fit for the specific mounting location when the part number is specified

• Use the matching screw location and size specified by the parts diagram
• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading; tighten securely but do not overtighten
• Disconnect power to the appliance before removing panels or components
• If threads are damaged, replace with correct OEM screw—do not force a mismatched fastener

A small flat washer used with fasteners to distribute load, prevent pull-through, and reduce wear on mating surfaces. Simple, durable hardware that helps maintain secure assemblies in laundry appliances. What it does:

• Provides a smooth bearing surface between a fastener head or nut and the appliance component
• Helps distribute clamping force to prevent damage or pull-through of softer materials
• Reduces loosening from vibration and helps maintain a stable connection
• Commonly replaced when hardware is corroded, deformed, or missing

• Disconnect power and water supply and follow all safety precautions before servicing the appliance
• Use the correct matching fastener and seating orientation for reliable fit and function
• Inspect surrounding hardware and replace any corroded or damaged bolts, nuts, or mating parts

This condenser fan blade is the rotating plastic blade that moves air across the condenser coils to help remove heat from the refrigerator. Replacing a damaged blade restores proper airflow for more consistent cooling. What it does:

• Spins on the condenser fan motor to circulate air over condenser coils
• Helps dissipate heat so the compressor and fridge run efficiently
• Can cause reduced cooling or higher temperatures if broken or missing

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any service
• Inspect the fan motor shaft and mounting for wear; replace motor if shaft is damaged
• Handle the blade carefully to avoid cracking; ensure blade is seated and secured before testing
