This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.

This replacement OEM part is a control board for refrigerators. It controls the digital display of the refrigerator. If the digital display is no longer visible and the buttons are no longer operating properly, it might be time to replace the control board. Luckily replacing the control board on a refrigerator with a digital display is a relatively simple process. To begin, start by unplugging the refrigerator. Then remove the display board by popping it out of the mounting brackets that attach to the refrigerator. Once the dispenser and display have been removed, access the old control board. Unfasten the screws attaching it to the refrigerator and remove the wire harness along with any individual wires. Be sure to take note of the orientation of the wires. Re-insert them into the correct terminals on the new board and reattach the new board to the refrigerator. reinstall the dispenser and display board and restore power to the refrigerator.This genuine replacement part is compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Sears/Kenmore brand refrigerators.
