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 replacement gasket seals the appliance door to help maintain proper temperature and prevent leaks, keeping the interior efficient and protected. Use it to restore a tight door seal and reduce energy loss from gaps. What it does:

• Forms a secure seal around the door to keep heat or cold inside the appliance
• Prevents water, steam, and air leaks that can cause poor performance or messes
• Helps maintain consistent internal temperature for efficient operation
• Reduces cycling and energy waste caused by a damaged or worn seal

• One replacement gasket

• Disconnect power and empty the appliance before starting any repair
• Inspect the door frame and mounting channel for damage or debris before installing
• Install by seating gasket evenly into the channel or following the OEM mounting clips/adhesive method

• Replaces cracked, loose, or missing handles that affect door operation or appearance
• Maintains proper clearance and alignment for normal door movement
• Helps prevent injury from sharp or broken handle edges

• Use the appliance power and water disconnect procedure recommended by the manufacturer before beginning work
• Remove trim or screws as needed to access handle fasteners; keep fasteners for reassembly unless new hardware is explicitly included
• Tighten screws evenly to avoid misalignment or cosmetic damage
• If door or trim is bent or damaged, inspect assemblies before installing the new handle

A replacement machine screw with 8-32 threads used to secure panels and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances. Installs quickly to restore proper fit and stop rattling or loose parts. What it does:

• Directs cold air from the evaporator into the refrigerator compartment for balanced cooling.
• Helps prevent uneven temperatures and localized warm or cold spots.
• Reduces excessive airflow directly onto stored items that can cause freezing or drying.
• Can rattle or obstruct airflow when cracked or loose, causing noise or reduced performance.
