This controller is the appliance's electronic control board. It monitors sensors and manages cooling system operations so temperatures stay stable. Replacing a failed board can restore consistent cooling performance and responsive controls.

• Manages compressor and fan run times to maintain the set temperature; failures can cause warm temps, overcooling, or short cycling
• Coordinates automatic defrost on applicable models; faults may lead to frost buildup and restricted airflow
• Processes input from temperature sensors and user settings; issues can make controls unresponsive or erratic
• Drives status lights/alarms on applicable models; malfunctions may trigger false alarms or no indications

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Use ESD protection; handle the board by the edges to avoid component damage
• Photograph wiring and move connectors one at a time to the new board to ensure correct placement
• Reuse original mounting hardware and ensure all connections are fully seated before restoring power

The Nameplate is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances. It serves as an identification label, typically displaying the brand name and model number, providing a clean and professional appearance for the appliance.

You should replace this nameplate if it becomes damaged or worn out. Common causes of a bad nameplate include wear and tear from regular cleaning, exposure to moisture or heat that can cause peeling or fading, and accidental impact that can lead to cracks or detachment.

Symptoms of a bad nameplate include:

• Fading or illegible text
• Peeling or detaching from the appliance surface
• Visible cracks or damage
• The nameplatae being completely missing

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This replacement screw secures appliance components so brackets, shelves, trim, or panels stay firmly in place. Install a new screw when the original is missing, stripped, or corroded to restore a tight, rattle-free fit.

• Fastens brackets, panels, trim, or covers to the cabinet or liner
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce vibration and noise
• Direct replacement for a missing, rusted, or stripped fastener
• Use wherever your model's parts diagram specifies this screw

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water if working near water lines
• Match thread and length to the original location as shown in your model's parts diagram
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening (especially into plastic)
• Retain and transfer any original spacers or clips used with this fastener

The product featured is a Frigidaire refrigerator compressor. The compressor is a vital component for the cooling and freezing process of a refrigerator. A compressor works together with the evaporator in providing the cold air needed to keep everything at the desired temperature. When a compressor fails, this could have an effect that calls for an emergency repair. Losing the compressor function means the refrigerator stops getting cold in both compartments. Prolonging the repair could mean the loss of all the food items stored inside. A faulty compressor may become very loud when it operates. Users may hear a slight clicking sound on a compressor that's entirely out of commission. This is the relay clicking in an attempt to power the compressor. If a compressor does go out, keep the doors of the freezer and refrigerator shut. There's a chance the food can be salvaged if repairs take place fast enough. This compressor is a genuine OEM product and is sourced directly from the manufacturer and is only available as an individual component. Frigidaire, Kenmore, and Maytag refrigerators can be repaired with this component.

This aluminum strap secures the defrost heater firmly against the evaporator coil to maintain proper contact during defrost. Correct contact improves heat transfer so frost melts evenly and helps prevent recurring ice buildup on the evaporator.

• Secures the defrost heater to the evaporator for proper contact and heat transfer
• Promotes complete, even defrosting across the evaporator coil
• Helps reduce repeat frost/ice accumulation caused by a shifted or loose heater
• Typical clues include a loose heater, uneven frost pattern, or rattling near the evaporator

• Disconnect power and allow ice to melt before accessing the evaporator
• Use care around sharp fins and fragile refrigerant tubing; do not puncture or deform the coil
• Position the heater per your model's parts diagram and tighten the strap for firm, even contact
• Verify wiring is routed clear of the fan and moving parts before reassembly

The Grate Pad is an OEM component for Whirlpool gas and electric ranges. Located underneath grates atop burner assemblies, this insulating pad protects the cooktop surface during use.

Symptoms of a degraded or improperly fitting grate pad include: 

• Scratches or nicks appearing on the ceramic glass cooktop
• The range of burners becoming more difficult to clean
• Noise or vibration issues heard from the cooktop area

Causes related to normal wear over extended use, exposure to cleaning chemicals, or damage from heavy pans accidentally sliding off grates.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

Razor blade scraper.

This foam tape is used to seal and cushion mating surfaces in your appliance. Replacing a worn strip restores a snug fit, helps reduce noise, and helps maintain proper airflow, heat, or moisture control where specified by the manufacturer.

• Provides a compressible seal between components per the unit's parts diagram
• Cushions panels and trim to reduce vibration, buzzing, or rattling
• Helps prevent air, steam, or heat leaks at joints and seams
• Replace if the original tape is torn, flattened, missing, or contaminated

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water as applicable; allow the appliance to cool before service
• Note the original tape placement; remove old material and residue, then clean and dry surfaces
• Apply per the service manual; avoid stretching; press evenly to ensure full contact
• If the OEM procedure calls for trimming, cut carefully to length and avoid gaps or overlaps

This temperature control thermostat regulates cabinet temperature by cycling the cooling system on and off. It helps your appliance hold the setting you select so food stays cold without unnecessary overcooling.

• Maintains the setpoint chosen with the control knob
• Symptoms of a failing control include: too warm or too cold temperatures
• Runs constantly or won't run unless tapped/adjusted
• Temperature knob has little or no effect on cooling

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Note wire locations and take photos before removal
• Route the sensing capillary/bulb exactly as original; do not kink or sharply bend it
• Secure the sensing bulb in its clips and ensure good contact; set to mid-range and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize

This is a duct-free downdraft filter accessory kit. The downdraft filter accessory kit is the component that controls the ventilation of the oven. It is attached to a blower motor fan that circulates the warm air into the oven allowing for an even distribution of temperature.First, remove the lower panel located on the front of the range. To install the ductless vent kit, slide the lower filter enclosure over the blower motor and attach it to the motor with the three screws provided. Seal the connection with aluminum tape. Then place the downdraft filter accessory kit on the floor where the stove sits. Make sure to place it in line with the range. Drill 3 1 inch pilot holes using the blower motor tabs as guides. Once holes have been drilled, use screws to mount the unit onto the floor. Slide the oven back in place and resecure the front lower panel under the oven door. This genuine replacement OEM part is compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper ovens.
