Maytag Mbf2255kew Parts

The Light Bulb Socket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for housing the bulb that illuminates the interior fridge light. The socket provides a protective casing and stable electrical connection for the light bulb. Its interior components are precisely arranged to safely conduct current to the bulb. 

Causes of a bad light bulb socket can include cracks, loose connections, or damaged internal wiring due to regular use over time.

Symptoms of a bad light bulb socket include:

• The fridge interior light failing to turn on
• The bulb burning out quickly  
• Flickering or intermittent lighting

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

This insulation panel helps reduce heat transfer in the refrigerator cabinet so the appliance holds cold temperatures more efficiently and reduces frost buildup. It's a direct-fit replacement for the factory cabinet insulation. What it does:

• Slows thermal transfer between the cabinet and ambient air to help maintain interior temperatures
• Helps reduce frost buildup on evaporator and interior surfaces
• Improves cooling efficiency by minimizing cold-air loss
• Quietly adds a layer of thermal and acoustic insulation behind the liner

• Disconnect power and remove food before starting any repair
• Access requires removing the interior liner or trim
• Handle gently and wear gloves; insulation can tear or shed fibers
• Follow OEM instructions for adhesive or fastener placement and secure fit

This replacement cover protects water-related components on select Whirlpool washers, helping keep valves and hoses shielded from debris and incidental contact for reliable water flow management. What it does

• Protects water valves, inlet hoses, and nearby fittings from dirt and accidental contact
• Helps maintain proper water routing by keeping components covered and positioned
• Commonly replaced if cracked, broken, warped, or missing after impact or wear
• Can prevent debris buildup that interferes with valve operation or connections

• One replacement cover as pictured

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting any repair
• Secure with existing screws or clips
• Do not force the cover into place; inspect surrounding fittings and hoses for damage while installing
• If you see leaks after installation, recheck hose connections and valve seating; replace defective parts as needed

This evaporator clip secures the refrigerator evaporator assembly and related components so the cooling system stays aligned and vibration-free. It helps maintain proper airflow and prevents rubbing or loose parts. What it does:

• Holds the evaporator coil/assembly or associated covers in place
• Prevents vibration, noise, and contact between the coil and cabinet parts
• Helps maintain consistent airflow for reliable cooling performance
• Commonly linked to rattling, buzzing, or loose parts around the freezer evaporator

• Disconnect power before servicing the appliance
• Handle evaporator and surrounding fins carefully; they are sharp and fragile
• Verify clip orientation against the OEM diagram before fastening

This short machine screw secures small appliance panels, trim pieces, and components to keep assemblies stable and aligned. It's a direct-fit fastener commonly used in laundry and kitchen appliances to replace lost or damaged screws. What it does:

• Fastens panels, bezels, brackets, or small components to the main appliance cabinet or subassembly
• Restores a secure fit when loose or missing screws cause rattling or misaligned parts
• Prevents further wear or damage from unsecured panels or trim
• Works where a short-length machine screw is specified by the manufacturer

• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-torquing which can strip threads or crack plastic parts
• Disconnect power or follow appliance safety procedures before servicing electrical appliances
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating fastener or insert rather than relying on an oversized screw

• Keep removed hardware for reference; replace like-for-like if threads or inserts are damaged.
• Wear eye protection and gloves when working on appliances.

This seal strip replaces a worn or damaged door gasket edge to restore a proper seal and help the appliance maintain temperature and operate quietly. It's a direct-fit service part used where a continuous seal is required. What it does:

• Provides a flexible barrier along the door/frame to reduce air leaks and heat/cold loss
• Helps prevent moisture buildup and improves energy efficiency when sealing is restored
• Reduces rattling and vibration caused by a compressed or torn seal edge
• Commonly replaced when the strip is torn, missing, or no longer adheres properly

• One seal strip

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical or burn hazards
• Clean and dry the mounting surface; remove old adhesive or residue for best adhesion
• Align the strip carefully and press firmly; allow any adhesive to cure per manufacturer instructions

This black plastic corner cover replaces a damaged or missing exterior trim piece to restore the appliance's finished appearance and protect internal edges from dirt and wear. Fits the factory location and matches original styling. What it does:

• May snap or screw into place depending on model; keep fasteners from the original cover for re-use.

This door stop replaces the small bumper that cushions and limits the door's travel so the door closes smoothly and avoids hard impacts. It restores normal door movement and reduces noise from slamming or catching. What it does

• Acts as a bumper/stop to limit how far the door opens or closes
• Cushions the door to prevent hard impacts and reduce noise
• Helps keep the door aligned and prevents catching or uneven closing
• Commonly replaced when the stop is worn, cracked, missing, or deformed

• One door stop

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting any repair
