This service wrench is a replacement hand tool used to loosen and tighten appliance fasteners during repairs, making component removal and reassembly easier and more reliable for technicians and DIYers. What it does:

• Provides the correct fit and leverage for specific appliance fasteners to prevent rounding or damage
• Helps remove and install parts that are secured with hard-to-reach or tight fasteners
• Useful when a loose or seized fastener prevents normal appliance operation or maintenance
• Designed for repair tasks where the original tool is lost or worn

• Disconnect power and gas before starting any repair
• Use appropriate personal protective equipment; avoid excessive force to prevent tool or fastener damage
• Follow manufacturer instructions for the specific repair task
• Keep removed fasteners and small parts in a safe container to avoid loss

This rubber grommet seals the suction/water pipe where it passes through the appliance cabinet to reduce leaks and dampen vibration. It restores a tight, durable seal to help prevent water intrusion and rattling. What it does:

• Cushions and seals the suction/water pipe where it passes through sheet metal or plastic.
• Reduces vibration and pipe movement that can cause noise or wear.
• Helps prevent water leaks or moisture entry at the cabinet penetration.
• Maintains a proper fit for tubing routing and component alignment.

• One rubber suction pipe grommet.

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before servicing.
• Remove access panels as needed to reach the pipe penetration; press grommet into opening and route pipe through center.
• Replace any brittle, torn, or deformed grommets; do not force a damaged grommet into place.

This is the left-side freezer evaporator fan motor. It spins the fan to draw air across the evaporator coil and circulate cold air, restoring proper airflow, quieter operation, and stable temperatures when the original motor is weak, seized, or noisy.

• Circulates air across the freezer evaporator coil to move cold air through the compartment
• Supports even cooling and temperature recovery after door openings
• Helps limit frost buildup on the back panel by keeping air moving
• Failure symptoms include weak or no airflow, loud or intermittent fan noise, rising freezer temperature, or soft/melting ice

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove freezer drawers/shelves and the rear panel to access the motor
• Note wire orientation; transfer the existing fan blade and any reusable mounting hardware from the old motor
• Ensure the blade spins freely and the shroud is clear before restoring power and checking airflow

This PTC-style start relay mounts on the compressor and briefly powers the start winding so the compressor can start reliably. Replacing a weak or heat-damaged relay can restore cooling performance and stop repeated clicking from the compressor area.

• Supplies momentary power to the compressor's start winding at startup
• Opens automatically as the PTC warms, removing the start winding from the circuit
• Symptoms of a failing relay: compressor won't start, repeated clicking/humming, and rising temperatures
• Visual clues can include discoloration, melting, or a burnt odor on the relay housing

• Disconnect power and remove the rear lower access panel to reach the compressor
• Note wire locations and terminal orientation before removal; transfer wires one-for-one
• Push the new relay fully onto the compressor pins until seated securely
• Inspect the overload protector and wire terminals for heat damage; replace any burnt connectors before restoring power

This compressor overload is the start-protection device that helps the refrigerator compressor run safely and restart after an overcurrent or overload. Replacing a faulty overload restores reliable compressor starting and helps protect the compressor motor. What it does:

• Protects the compressor by interrupting power during an electrical overload or locked-rotor condition
• Works with the start relay to allow the compressor motor to start and run properly
• Common symptom: refrigerator not cooling because compressor won't start
• Other symptom: humming or buzzing from the compressor or intermittent starting

• One compressor overload (start device)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Handle terminals carefully; install on the compressor per OEM orientation and secure connections

A self-tapping screw used to fasten appliance panels and components where a threaded hole is formed as the screw is driven. Provides a secure hold for trim, brackets, and light assemblies during repairs. What it does:

• Cuts its own mating thread in sheet metal or thin plastic to secure panels and brackets
• Helps hold trim, access panels, or internal components in place
• Commonly used where a tapped hole is not present or repair requires a replacement fastener
• Can prevent loose parts and rattles caused by missing or damaged screws

• Unplug the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical or mechanical hazards
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the screw head
• Start the screw straight and apply steady pressure; do not overtighten to avoid cracking plastic or stripping metal
• Replace only with the exact part number to ensure proper fit and function
