This genuine-style freezer door gasket creates a tight seal between the freezer door and cabinet to help maintain cold temperatures and reduce frost buildup. Replacing a worn gasket restores a proper seal and improves cooling efficiency. What it does:

• Seals the freezer door to keep cold air in and warm air out
• Helps prevent frost and ice buildup inside the freezer
• Reduces compressor run time caused by air leaks
• Can stop visible gaps or drafts around the freezer door edge

• Disconnect power and remove food before replacing the gasket; allow the freezer to reach room temperature if iced over
• Clean and dry the door sealing surface thoroughly before installing the new gasket
• Warm or flex the gasket slightly to seat it evenly in the channel; avoid overstretching
• Inspect the door retainer and ensure the gasket sits fully in the channel; use only appropriate, non-sharp tools to avoid damage

Size: 8 x 1-1/4 inch.

This grommet isolates the refrigerator's fan motor from its mounting bracket to reduce vibration and noise while keeping the motor secure. Replacing worn or missing grommets helps stop rattles and prevents the fan blade from rubbing.

• Cushions the fan motor to maintain proper alignment and clearance
• Absorbs vibration to help reduce humming, buzzing, or rattling sounds
• Helps keep the motor stable so the blade doesn't contact the shroud
• Common signs of failure include excess vibration, noise, or a loose fan motor

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Access the fan motor area (rear of unit or inside the freezer, depending on model) and support the motor
• Remove mounting hardware and seat the new grommet fully in the bracket/mount
• The fan blade spins freely with even clearance before reassembling and restoring power

This auger motor powers the refrigerator ice-dispenser auger to move or crush ice for dispensing, restoring proper ice delivery from the door. It replaces the factory auger motor responsible for auger rotation. What it does:

• Drives the auger that moves or crushes ice so the dispenser can deliver crushed or cubed ice.
• Commonly used when the dispenser auger does not turn, dispenses little or no ice, or the motor hums but the auger stays stuck.
• Restores normal auger rotation and helps reduce abnormal grinding or scraping noises tied to a failed motor.

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before starting any work.
• Remove ice and the ice bin before accessing the auger motor to avoid spills or blockages.
• Follow the refrigerator service manual for correct removal and reinstallation; retain mounting hardware and note wire/harness routing.
• After installation, restore power and operate the dispenser to verify auger rotation and ice flow.

This right-angle elbow fits between the water supply line and the refrigerator's icemaker fill tube. It directs water cleanly into the icemaker and helps maintain a sealed connection to reduce drips and leaks. What it does:

• Connects the inlet water tubing to the icemaker fill tube at a 90-degree angle
• Routes water into the icemaker during the fill cycle
• Helps maintain a watertight connection at the rear of the cabinet
• Common symptoms: leaking behind the refrigerator, slow or no ice production, ice buildup near the fill area

• 1 fill tube elbow fitting

• Unplug the refrigerator and turn off the water supply; relieve line pressure before starting
• Access the rear lower area, place a towel for any residual water, and locate the elbow at the fill tube connection
• Release the clamp or retainer, disconnect the tubing, seat the new elbow fully, and resecure the line
• Turn water back on, check for leaks, then restore power and monitor the first ice fill

This replacement mounting screw secures appliance panels and components to restore proper fit and reduce rattling. Use when a damaged or missing screw causes loose trim, gaps, or vibrating noises; order by part number to ensure a match. What it does:

• Common symptoms: visible gaps, loose panels, hardware falling out, or excess noise.
• Use the part number and/or existing screw to ensure correct size and thread before ordering.

• Disconnect power and water before accessing internal components.
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Turn until snug; avoid over-tightening which can strip threads or crack trim.
• Keep small parts away from children and pets during repair.

This drain tube gasket seals the connection between the drain tube and its mating port to prevent leaks. A tight seal helps keep water where it belongs and protects surrounding components from moisture damage.

• Creates a watertight seal at the drain tube connection point
• Can help address water leaks around the drain area
• Deterioration, cracking, or hardening of the old gasket may cause seepage
• Replacing a worn gasket can restore proper leak prevention

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water supply before service
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water when disconnecting the tube
• Inspect the tube and mating surfaces; clean before installing the new gasket
• Do not overtighten fittings; verify a snug, even seal and check for leaks on first run
