This vertical center shaft aligns and drives the rotating components in the refrigerator's ice dispenser/crusher assembly, helping cubes and crushed ice dispense smoothly. Replacing a worn or stripped shaft restores reliable dispensing performance.

• Centers and supports the crusher/dispenser components for smooth operation
• Transfers drive from the dispenser motor through the crushing mechanism
• Helps prevent jams and binding caused by misalignment or wear
• Common symptoms: ice not dispensing, no crush function, grinding/clicking noises, wobbling shaft or visible wear

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing; handle sharp crusher blades with cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the ice bin and disassemble the crusher housing on a flat work surface
• Note the order of blades, spacers, washers, and any clips; transfer them to the new shaft in the same sequence
• Reinstall the bin, ensure the drive coupling engages fully, restore power, and test dispensing

This flat spring restores proper tension and return action in the mechanism it supports. Replace a fatigued or broken spring to bring back crisp movement and keep linked parts aligned so the assembly operates smoothly.

• Applies return tension to a lever, cam, or latch so it moves back to its rest position
• Helps maintain alignment and engagement between mating parts during operation
• Can resolve weak or missing spring action, sticking controls, and inconsistent operation
• Replaces a worn, bent, or broken spring to restore designed feel

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; shut off water supply if applicable
• Note the spring's orientation and mounting points before removal
• Use needle-nose pliers for control; avoid overbending to prevent premature fatigue
• Confirm smooth return action before reassembly

Mixer won't run or just hums? Worn motor brushes in the holder cause power loss. This DIY repair restores full motor function on stand mixers.

Fastening screw for securing components inside appliances. Replaces lost, stripped, or damaged screws during repairs or part installations.

This replacement spring restores proper tension and return action within the original mechanism of your appliance. Replacing a fatigued or broken spring helps moving parts operate smoothly and return to position for consistent, reliable performance.

• Supplies controlled tension within the assembly
• Returns levers or linkages to their neutral position after use
• Helps maintain proper alignment and engagement of moving parts
• Common signs of failure: weak/loose feel, parts not returning, intermittent operation, rattling or squeaking

• Disconnect power before service; also shut off gas/water
• Note original routing and attachment points; take a reference photo before removal
• Use needle-nose pliers or a spring tool; avoid overstretching the new spring
• Verify smooth manual movement before reassembly and testing

Replacement mounting screw for stand mixer panels, brackets, and trim. Secures internal components to keep parts aligned. Replace if missing, stripped, or rusted.

Fix mixer parts that shift or make noise with this retaining ring. Snaps into groove to secure components on shaft. Takes under 20 minutes to install.

If your mixer makes excessive noise or vibrates during operation, a worn spring seat cap may be the cause. This part centers and secures springs for smooth, quiet performance.

If your stand mixer runs only on high speed or won't change speeds properly, a worn governor drive stud may be the cause. This small repair restores smooth speed control in about 30 minutes.

This genuine replacement gear is a drivetrain component that transfers motor rotation to a mating mechanism inside your appliance. Replacing a worn or stripped gear restores smooth, reliable motion and helps prevent damage to adjacent parts.

• Meshes with adjacent gear(s) or a shaft to drive an internal mechanism
• Worn or rounded teeth can cause slipping, skipping, or no movement
• Intermittent or stalled movement can indicate a stripped or damaged gear

• Disconnect power (and shut off water/gas if applicable) before servicing
• Access the assembly; note orientation and timing marks
• Transfer any spacers, keys, or retaining clips from the old gear
• Seat the new gear fully and verify smooth manual rotation before restoring power

Rubber foot for stand mixer base. Replaces worn, cracked, or missing feet. Stabilizes mixer, reduces vibration, and protects countertops.

This cap spring is a small coil that supplies the return tension a cap or button needs to operate smoothly. Replace it if weakened, bent, or missing to restore proper feel and reliable engagement of the mechanism.

• Maintains spring tension under a cap/button to keep parts aligned
• Helps the cap return smoothly and prevents looseness or rattling
• Supports consistent engagement of the related control or latch
• Typical signs of fatigue: loose or wobbly cap, sticking action, poor return, or a spring that pops out

• Disconnect power and shut off water/gas supplies before servicing
• Note the spring's orientation and stack-up; take photos as you disassemble
• Use needle-nose pliers and control the spring so it doesn't eject
• Seat components fully and test operation before final reassembly

White plastic back cover for stand mixers. Protects internal components at rear of motor housing. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing.

If your stand mixer bowl lift won't stay up or slips out of position, this spring roll pin secures the lift arm linkage. Requires pin punch to install.

This bearing supports a rotating shaft or assembly inside the appliance, reducing friction for smooth, quiet operation. Replacing a worn bearing restores proper alignment and helps prevent noise and premature wear on connected parts.

• Provides a low-friction surface for smooth rotation
• Helps keep the rotating component centered and stable
• Reduces vibration and operating noise
• Common failure signs: grinding/squealing, wobble or play, rough or intermittent rotation

• Disconnect power; also shut off water or gas supply if applicable
• Access the assembly per your model's service information and note part orientation before removal
• Inspect the shaft/hub and any spacers or seals for wear; replace related worn components
• Seat the bearing squarely—do not force; apply only manufacturer-specified lubricant if called for in service literature

This 8-32 x 5/8 screw replaces missing or damaged hardware specified by the manufacturer to secure panels, brackets, and internal components in your appliance. Restores a tight, rattle-free fit to help prevent vibration and misalignment.

• Provides the correct 8-32 thread and 5/8-inch length where specified
• Secures sheet-metal panels, brackets, and internal assemblies
• Replaces missing, stripped, or corroded screws
• Symptoms include loose or rattling panels, misaligned parts, or hardware that won't stay tight

• Disconnect power; shut off gas before servicing
• Support panels/components while removing or installing hardware
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten only until snug
• Match the original screw's location and orientation for proper fit
