This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.

This left-hand adapter bracket supports and secures a mating assembly inside the appliance, helping keep drawers, shelves, or rails aligned and operating smoothly. Replacing a cracked or missing bracket restores proper fit and reduces binding or wobble. What it does:

• Provides the left-side mounting/support point for the connected drawer, shelf, or rail assembly
• Maintains alignment so components sit level and move smoothly
• Helps prevent racking, scraping, and uneven wear
• Common symptoms of failure: wobbling or sagging assembly, binding or rough movement, difficulty closing, or visible cracks/breaks

• One left-hand adapter bracket

• Disconnect power before servicing; remove food/contents to access the work area
• Remove the affected drawer/shelf/rail to access the bracket
• Retain and transfer existing screws or clips from the old bracket if required
• Install on the left-hand side; do not overtighten fasteners; verify smooth operation

This axle roller is the replacement support shaft that lets the appliance's rotating assembly turn smoothly and quietly. Installing a new axle roller corrects wobble and reduces grinding or squealing caused by a worn shaft. What it does:

• Supports the rotating drum or rack so it spins freely and stays aligned
• Helps prevent metal-to-metal contact that causes loud noise or scraping
• Stops uneven rotation and vibration that can lead to further wear
• Restores smooth operation when an original axle is bent, worn, or broken

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before starting any repair
• Access location and removal steps vary by model; follow the OEM service manual or diagram
• Inspect related parts (pulleys, idler, glides, bearings) and replace if they show wear
• Use basic hand tools; keep fingers and loose clothing clear of moving parts during testing

Ice stripper removes ice cubes from the ice maker mold so the dispenser or storage bin fills properly. Replacing a worn or broken stripper helps the ice maker eject cubes cleanly and reduces ice jams or stuck cubes. What it does:

• Pushes or guides harvested cubes out of the ice mold into the bin during the ice maker's harvest cycle.
• Prevents cubes from sticking in the mold; a damaged stripper can cause incomplete ejection or leftover ice in the mold.
• Works with the ice maker's ejector mechanism to maintain consistent cube release and storage.
• A faulty or broken stripper may lead to noisy operation, partial fills, or visible ice build-up in the mold.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Remove the ice maker or access panel per the manufacturer's instructions to reach the stripper; keep small parts and screws organized.
• Inspect the ice mold and surrounding components for damage or ice build-up; clear ice before installing the new stripper.
• After installation, restore power and run a test harvest cycle to ensure proper cube ejection.

A replacement door hinge assembly that secures the appliance door and lets it pivot smoothly. Installing the correct hinge restores proper door alignment so the door opens and closes reliably and reduces uneven gaps. What it does:

• Provides the pivot point that supports the door and maintains alignment.
• Replaces cracked, worn, or bent hinges that cause door sag or misalignment.
• Helps the door close fully and stay seated to reduce drafts and uneven sealing.
• Restores normal hinge movement to eliminate sticking or noisy operation.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Support the door while removing and installing the hinge to prevent injury or damage.
• Use the correct hand tools and keep track of mounting hardware; do not overtighten fasteners.
• After installation, check door swing and alignment; adjust as needed.

This is the refrigerator's sealed-system compressor. It pressurizes and moves refrigerant through the system to remove heat from the cabinet, restoring consistent cooling performance when the original compressor has failed or lost capacity. What it does and common symptoms:

• Pumps and circulates refrigerant through the evaporator and condenser to remove heat
• Maintains target temperatures in both fresh food and freezer sections
• Symptoms of failure can include: no cool/poor cooling, unit warms up after short operation, humming then clicking from the compressor area, or repeated thermal overload trips
• Runs but not cool effectively when the compressor is weak or internally damaged (after ruling out start components and charge issues)

• 1 compressor

• Disconnect power before servicing; sealed-system work involves high pressure and high temperatures
• Sealed-system repairs require EPA Section 608 certification and specialized tools (gauges, vacuum pump, brazing equipment)
• Replace the filter-drier, braze connections properly, evacuate to deep vacuum, and charge to the model's specification
• Related components (start device/overload, run capacitor, controls) are tested before condemning the compressor

This support mounts in the dispenser area to secure the ice housing assembly. It helps keep the chute and door properly aligned so ice dispenses smoothly and the opening seals as designed.

• Supports and positions the ice housing/chute assembly in the freezer door
• Helps maintain proper alignment and sealing of the ice door/flapper
• Reduces wobble or flex that can affect dispensing performance
• Typical signs it may be needed: loose or misaligned dispenser housing, ice or air leaking at the chute, frost buildup around the dispenser, inconsistent ice dispensing

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the dispenser trim/control to access the housing; handle wiring and tabs carefully
• Remove mounting fasteners, replace the support, and transfer any reusable hardware
• Reassemble, restore power, and test ice dispensing and chute seal
