This defrost bimetal thermostat opens and closes with temperature to protect the evaporator from overheating during defrost. It helps clear frost buildup while preventing damage, supporting stable cooling and efficient refrigerator operation.

• Monitors evaporator temperature and interrupts the defrost heater when the set limit is reached
• Helps resolve symptoms like warm fridge/freezer, heavy frost on evaporator, or long/no defrost cycles
• Can cause frequent temperature swings or compressor short cycling if failing
• Typically mounted on or near the evaporator coil in the freezer

• Disconnect power before servicing; defrost ice as needed to access the evaporator area
• Note wire locations; replace using existing connectors or approved splices
• Ensure the thermostat clips firmly to the evaporator tubing in the original location
• After install, restore power and confirm the unit enters and exits defrost normally

This fan scroll is the plastic housing that surrounds the evaporator fan in the freezer section. It directs air across the evaporator coils and into the ducts, helping your refrigerator move cold air evenly and maintain stable temperatures.

• Channels airflow from the evaporator fan through the coils and into the air ducts
• Helps balance cooling between freezer and fresh food compartments
• Positions the fan motor and blade for proper clearance and reduced vibration
• If cracked, warped, or missing, you may notice weak airflow, temperature swings, rattling noises, or frost buildup on the evaporator cover

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove freezer shelves/bins and the rear panel to access the fan area
• Transfer the existing fan motor, blade, and hardware to the new scroll
• The fan spins freely and wiring is clear before reassembly and restoring power

This support mounts in the dispenser area to secure the ice housing assembly. It helps keep the chute and door properly aligned so ice dispenses smoothly and the opening seals as designed.

• Supports and positions the ice housing/chute assembly in the freezer door
• Helps maintain proper alignment and sealing of the ice door/flapper
• Reduces wobble or flex that can affect dispensing performance
• Typical signs it may be needed: loose or misaligned dispenser housing, ice or air leaking at the chute, frost buildup around the dispenser, inconsistent ice dispensing

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the dispenser trim/control to access the housing; handle wiring and tabs carefully
• Remove mounting fasteners, replace the support, and transfer any reusable hardware
• Reassemble, restore power, and test ice dispensing and chute seal

This air baffle assembly regulates and directs cold airflow inside the refrigerator, typically between the freezer and fresh food sections. Replacing a damaged baffle helps restore balanced air distribution for more even cooling and stable temperatures throughout. What it does:

• Controls the amount and direction of airflow to maintain set temperatures
• Helps reduce warm spots or over-cooling in the fresh food compartment
• A cracked, missing, or misaligned baffle may lead to a warm refrigerator while the freezer stays cold
• Air leaks or obstruction at the baffle can cause frost or unusual air noise near the vent

• 1 air baffle assembly

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove shelves and the interior vent/diffuser cover to access the baffle
• Retain and transfer any screws, clips, or seals from the original part as required
• Seat the new baffle fully so the seal engages evenly; reassemble and verify airflow

Color: Black

This spigot body assembly routes water from the refrigerator supply to the dispenser and replaces a worn, cracked, or leaking dispenser spigot. It restores proper water flow and helps stop drips or visible leaks at the dispenser. What it does:

• Channels water from the supply line through the dispenser area for normal dispense operation.
• Provides the structural mounting for the dispenser valve and actuator components.
• Common symptoms it can address: leaking or dripping at the dispenser, visible cracks or broken spigot housing, or intermittent water flow from the dispenser.
• Works with existing dispenser valve and seals when those components are undamaged.

• Disconnect power to the appliance and shut off the water supply before starting work.
• Access may require removing the refrigerator door panel or inner dispenser bezel.
• Inspect and replace any worn O-rings or seals during reassembly to prevent leaks; tighten fasteners only to specified torque if provided by the manufacturer.

Right-hand door bin end cap that replaces a cracked or missing trim piece and secures the refrigerator door shelf. Restores a flush fit and helps keep stored items from shifting. What it does

• Snaps onto the right end of a refrigerator door bin to hold the bin trim in place.
• Prevents the bin from coming loose or tilting when you open and close the door.
• Replaces worn or damaged end trim that can leave gaps or expose sharp edges.
• Commonly used when the door shelf feels loose, the bin slides out, or the end cap is cracked.

• Remove the door bin before installing to access the end cap; handle the bin carefully to avoid spills.
• Align the end cap with the bin trim and snap it into place until it seats securely.

This bin latch secures a refrigerator bin or drawer to its mounting points so it stays put during everyday use. Replacing a worn latch restores a solid, reliable fit and helps prevent spills or drops.

The Screw is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool dryers. This screw connects the back panel to the side panel, ensuring the dryer cabinet is securely assembled. It plays an integral role in maintaining the structural integrity of the dryer housing.

Symptoms of a bad screw can include loosening, corrosion, or breakage over time and use. This can compromise the bond between panels and weaken the overall dryer frame.  

Causes of a bad screw include:

• Repeated expansion and contraction from heat cycles  
• Vibrations loosening the connection point
• Stress or cracks developing at the screw head or threads

These issues can lead to:

• Gaps appearing between panels
• Components like controls detaching from the housing
• Cabinet unable to withstand pressure changes  

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