This horizontal louver directs airflow inside the appliance to help even cooling and prevent direct blasts on food. It restores proper air distribution when vent fins are broken or stuck. What it does:

• Guides refrigerator/freezer airflow for more even temperature distribution
• Replaces cracked, warped, or missing horizontal vent slats
• Helps reduce cold spots caused by misdirected air
• Visible damage or a louver that won't hold position are common symptoms

• One horizontal louver

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical hazards
• Remove nearby shelves or drawers for access if needed
• Typically snaps or slides into the vent housing; align and seat gently to avoid breaking tabs
• Inspect surrounding clips and housing; replace if damaged

This clamp secures a line or connection inside your appliance, maintaining a tight fit under vibration. Replacing a fatigued clamp helps prevent leaks or disconnections and keeps components anchored so the system operates reliably.

• Holds a line/fitting firmly to keep the joint sealed and secure
• Helps prevent leaks or disconnections at hose/tube connections
• Resists vibration that can loosen fittings during operation
• Replace if bent, weakened, or corroded, or if the connection repeatedly loosens

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water supply before service
• Note clamp orientation and routing; seat the clamp just behind the fitting bead/stop
• Use the correct tool for your clamp style to compress or tighten evenly
• After reassembly, restore utilities and test for leaks or movement

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 synchronous motor assembly drives the washer's rotating components, restoring proper agitation and spin so laundry cycles complete correctly. It replaces a failed drive motor to get noisy or non-spinning machines moving again. What it does:

• Converts electrical input into smooth, timed rotational motion for the washer drive system
• Enables agitation and spin functions so the tub rotates during wash and spin cycles
• Stops intermittent or no-rotation symptoms caused by a failed motor
• Eliminate humming, grinding, or lack-of-spin issues originating from the drive motor

• One synchronous motor assembly

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Take a photo of wiring and bracket locations to aid reassembly; handle connectors gently
• Secure mounting screws and check that the motor coupling and any belts are aligned per the service manual

This air cleaner filter assembly replaces the refrigerator's air filtration module to help keep interior air fresher and reduce common food odors. It restores the filter housing and sealing surface so the filtration element works as intended. What it does:

• Holds and seals the refrigerator air filter cartridge to direct airflow through the filter media
• Helps capture food odors and airborne particulates inside the fresh food compartment
• Restores proper fit when a damaged or missing housing causes bypass or poor sealing
• Supports normal airflow for the fridge's air circulation system

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before servicing
• Locate the filter assembly per your owner's manual; remove the old assembly before installing the replacement
• Verify the filter cartridge seats fully and the housing gasket compresses for a proper seal

This electric capacitor is a direct-replacement appliance capacitor used to support motor start/run circuits and stable electrical performance. Installing the correct capacitor restores reliable motor operation and reduces start-up issues. What it does:

• Provides the stored electrical charge needed for motor start and run cycles
• Stabilizes voltage to help motors and control boards operate correctly
• Symptoms of a failing capacitor: humming motors, motors that won't start or run intermittently, or reduced performance
• Commonly used in appliance motor and compressor circuits

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components
• Discharge the capacitor safely before touching terminals to avoid shock
• Match capacitance and voltage ratings from the original part

This box-style film capacitor is a replacement electrical filter used on select LG appliance control and motor circuits to suppress interference and stabilize operation. It helps restore proper electrical performance when a film capacitor has failed. What it does:

• Provides noise suppression and transient protection in control and motor circuits
• Helps stabilize voltage supplied to sensitive components
• Commonly replaced when you see intermittent operation, control board errors, or unusual electrical noise
• Prevents further stress to downstream electronics caused by a degraded capacitor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the capacitor
• Handle with care; discharge the capacitor per manufacturer instructions before touching terminals
• Verify polarity and terminal locations match the original part before installation
