This spacer provides a precise gap for proper alignment and clearance between components, helping maintain correct part positioning for reliable operation. It's a simple replacement that restores intended spacing and reduces wear. What it does:

• Positions and separates adjoining parts to maintain correct clearance
• Helps prevent rubbing, misalignment, or binding of moving components
• Restores factory spacing after maintenance or part replacement
• Fits where the original spacer was used to support assembly alignment

• One spacer as shown

• Inspect surrounding components and mounting surfaces for damage before installing
• Remove power to the appliance and follow manufacturer service instructions
• Install in the same orientation as the original spacer and verify proper clearance
• If fasteners or adjacent parts are worn, replace them to ensure a secure fit

Control knob that replaces a damaged or missing range control knob, restoring safe, reliable selection of heat settings. Provides secure grip and positive detents for accurate temperature adjustment on electric range controls. What it does:

• Fits onto the control shaft to select heat levels for electric surface burners or range controls.
• Replaces cracked, stripped, loose, or missing knobs that won't turn or slip on the shaft.
• Restores clear tactile stops and improves ease of setting burner or oven heat.
• Helps eliminate unsafe or imprecise temperature control caused by a compromised knob.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Pull the old knob straight off the control shaft; align splines and push the new knob on until fully seated.
• If the knob does not fit or the shaft is damaged, do not force the part—inspect and replace the underlying switch or shaft assembly if needed.
• Restore power and verify correct operation of all control settings after installation.

This main back insulation panel replaces the factory foam insulation behind the refrigerator cabinet to help reduce heat transfer and minimize noise. Installing the correct back insulation helps the refrigerator maintain temperature more consistently. What it does:

• Provides thermal barrier behind the cabinet to slow heat gain from the rear.
• Helps limit compressor and airflow noise by absorbing sound near the rear cavity.
• Commonly replaced when insulation is damaged, missing, compressed, or when the appliance has higher-than-normal run times or inconsistent cooling.
• Protects internal components from external temperature swings and debris entering rear cavities.

• Disconnect power before accessing the rear of the appliance and remove any rear access panels or brackets to reach the insulation location.
• Handle the panel gently to avoid tearing or compressing the insulation; secure using original clips/adhesive or replacement fasteners as applicable.
• Ensure the insulation fits flush and does not interfere with wiring, tubing, or moving parts.

This inner oven door liner replaces the damaged or warped inner panel that supports the oven door glass and helps contain heat inside the oven cavity. It restores a solid mounting surface for door glass and internal components. What it does:

• Provides the inner structural panel for the oven door and supports the door glass and insulation.
• Helps maintain proper oven heat containment to support uniform cooking.
• Prevents direct exposure of insulation and internal parts to oven cavity heat and food debris.
• Addresses symptoms like visible cracks, warping, or detached glass mounting points on the inside of the door.

• Disconnect power before starting any repair and follow manufacturer's safety instructions.
• Remove the oven door per the appliance manual to access and replace the inner liner; handle glass and sharp edges carefully.
• Keep all original screws and mounting clips; confirm screw locations during disassembly to ensure proper reassembly.
• If the door has multiple glass panels or seals, verify placement during reassembly—do not force parts into position.
