Rt18n6213ww Parts

This refrigerator compressor circulates refrigerant to cool the appliance and restore proper temperatures. Replaces a failed compressor to help the refrigerator maintain set temperatures when the cooling system is compromised. What it does:

• Pumps refrigerant through the sealed cooling system to enable heat exchange and cooling.
• Runs the refrigeration cycle so the refrigerator and freezer can reach and hold target temperatures.
• Common symptom linkage: fridge not cooling, compressor humming or not running, or frequent cycling.
• Can cause system pressure issues if damaged or leaking.

• One compressor (single sealed unit)

• Power should be disconnected before beginning work and the refrigerant must be recovered per regulations.
• System evacuation, leak testing, and proper recharge with the correct refrigerant are necessary after replacement.
• May require replacement of mounting hardware, start device, or filter-drier—verify system condition during service.

This is a replacement 1/4-20 threaded screw used to secure appliance components and panels. It restores proper fastening where a matching screw is missing, loose, or stripped and helps stop rattling or misalignment. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, and assemblies to maintain proper alignment and reduce vibration
• Replaces missing or damaged fasteners that cause loose or rattling parts
• Works wherever a 1/4-20 threaded screw is specified by the manufacturer
• Simple mechanical fastener—no electrical or calibration changes required

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid injury
• Use the matching driver and thread engagement; do not overtighten to prevent stripping
• Verify screw length and head type match the original before installing
• If threads are damaged, repair or replace the mating component rather than forcing the screw

This OEM grease is a purpose-made appliance lubricant that reduces friction and protects moving parts for smoother operation and longer component life. Use where specified by the manufacturer for bearings, slides, or motor shafts. What it does:

• Lubricates gears, bearings, rollers and shafts to reduce wear and noise
• Helps prevent binding, seizing, and grinding on moving components
• Protects metal parts from corrosion where grease is specified
• Keeps parts moving smoothly under normal operating temperatures

• Disconnect power before servicing any appliance; follow manufacturer service instructions
• Apply sparingly to clean, dry surfaces; avoid over-greasing which can attract debris
• Wear gloves and wipe excess grease from surrounding areas to prevent staining

This temperature control thermostat regulates refrigerator cooling by cycling the compressor and fans to maintain set temperatures. Replaces a faulty thermostat to restore proper temperature control and more consistent cooling. What it does

• Senses cabinet temperature and closes or opens the electrical circuit to run the compressor and cooling system
• Helps maintain steady temperatures so food stays properly chilled or frozen
• Commonly replaces a thermostat that causes the unit to run constantly, not run at all, or fail to reach set temperatures
• Works with the fridge's control assembly to respond to user temperature adjustments

• One temperature control thermostat

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Locate the thermostat behind the control knob or panel; refer to your model's service manual for exact access
• Handle the capillary tube and sensor bulb carefully to avoid kinks or damage

This screw support secures the dryer drum ladder assembly, helping maintain proper alignment and stable rotation for reliable drying performance. It replaces a worn or broken support to reduce noise and rattling during operation. What it does:

• Holds the ladder/support bracket in place so the drum rotates smoothly.
• Prevents excessive movement that can cause scraping, knocking, or rubbing noises.
• Restores correct positioning to reduce wear on adjacent components.
• Suitable when the original support is cracked, bent, or missing fastener points.

• One screw support (ladder) as shown.

• Intended for experienced DIYers; confirm compatibility with your model before installing.
• Disconnect power (unplug electric or shut off gas and unplug) before beginning work.
• Handle small parts carefully and keep track of fasteners; use appropriate hand tools.
