This AC fan motor drives the cooling fan that moves air through your appliance's heat-exchange coils, helping maintain stable temperatures. Replace a failed motor to restore reliable airflow and reduce noise or inconsistent cooling.

• Powers the fan blade to move air across the coils for efficient heat transfer
• Helps maintain steady compartment temperatures and overall cooling performance
• Common symptoms include: fan not running, weak or no airflow, loud humming/squealing, or intermittent cooling
• Replaces a seized, slow, or burnt-out motor to restore proper circulation

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow moving parts to stop completely
• Access the fan assembly; note wire positions and mounting orientation
• Transfer the fan blade, bracket, and grommets from the old motor if required
• Secure the motor, route wiring as original, ensure the blade spins freely, then restore power and verify operation

This capacitor is an electrical replacement part that helps restore reliable motor/compressor start and operation in compatible appliances. Replacing a failed capacitor can stop intermittent operation and reduce abnormal humming or failure-to-start issues. What it does:

• Provides the stored electrical charge needed for motor or compressor start-up and stable operation
• Commonly linked to symptoms like humming, repeated starting/stopping, slow or failed starts, or loss of function
• Stabilizes voltage to reduce stress on motor circuitry and improve run consistency
• Replaces a worn or failed capacitor to restore normal appliance electrical performance

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before beginning any service
• Capacitors can hold a charge—discharge carefully
• Observe terminal orientation and wire placement; replace with identical specifications

Left side upper hinge.

This replacement door gasket creates a heat-resistant seal between the oven door and the front frame. A tight seal helps the oven maintain temperature and cook evenly while keeping heat from escaping into the kitchen.

• Seals the oven cavity to reduce heat loss and temperature fluctuations
• Helps improve preheat times and baking performance
• Worn seals can cause heat leakage, longer cook times, or hot air felt around the door
• Cracks, flattening, or fraying indicate the gasket should be replaced

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow the oven to cool completely
• Open the door and carefully release the old gasket from its mounting clips
• Align and press the new gasket into the channel, seating each clip fully
• After installation, check for even contact around the door

This tube assembly directs water through the appliance, restoring a secure, leak-resistant path when the original line is brittle, kinked, or damaged. Replacing it helps stop leaks and restores normal water flow.

• Routes water from the inlet valve to internal components
• Maintains sealed connections to reduce drips and seepage
• Replaces tubing that is cracked, kinked, or clogged with mineral deposits
• Common symptoms: visible leaks, puddling, low flow, or intermittent water delivery

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Place a towel to catch residual water and relieve line pressure
• Note the routing and connection points; transfer any retainers from the old part if needed
• Insert tubing fully into fittings and tug gently to confirm engagement; restore water and check for leaks

This replacement screw secures specified panels or components inside your appliance. Refreshing worn or missing hardware helps restore a tight fit, reduce rattling, and keep assemblies properly aligned for reliable performance.

• Provides secure fastening for brackets, panels, or internal assemblies
• Replaces stripped, rusted, or lost hardware
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling noises
• Symptoms include loose panels, shifting components, or a screw that won't tighten

• Disconnect power and allow any hot surfaces to cool before servicing
• Wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection
• Match length and thread to the original; replace like-for-like
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; do not overtighten

This ice gear transfers motor rotation to the refrigerator's ice mechanism so cubes can be dispensed or ejected. Replacing a worn or stripped gear restores smooth, reliable ice operation and helps eliminate grinding or clicking noises.

• Transfers drive from the motor to the ice mechanism (auger/ejector, depending on model)
• Helps move ice through the system for dispensing or harvest
• Common symptoms: no or slow ice dispensing, auger not turning, loud clicking/grinding from the ice bin
• Cracked or stripped teeth indicate the gear should be replaced

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the ice bin and access the ice assembly per your model; note gear orientation for reassembly
• Align teeth carefully; do not force the gear onto the shaft
• Inspect related parts (drive coupler, auger, motor shaft) and replace any worn components to prevent repeat failure

This refrigerator sheath heater melts frost from the evaporator so air can circulate freely and the unit can cool properly. Replacing a failed heater helps restore even temperatures and reduce frost buildup in the freezer.

• Warms the evaporator coil during defrost cycles to clear ice
• Helps prevent restricted airflow, warm spots, and long run times
• Common failure symptoms include heavy frost on the evaporator, poor cooling, ice buildup on the back panel, or frequent defrost errors
• May cause sizzling sounds or water under the evaporator area during normal operation after replacement

• Unplug the refrigerator before service; defrost any heavy ice to access parts safely
• Access typically from the rear of the freezer compartment behind the evaporator cover
• Handle heater leads and evaporator fins carefully to avoid damage
• Secure all connectors before reassembly
