Right Hand Closer

The Valve is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool refrigerators. It plays a crucial role in controlling the flow of coolant through the refrigerator system, ensuring optimal temperatures are maintained in both the freezer and refrigerator sections. 

Symptoms of a bad valve can include improper cooling, freezing, or icing issues occurring in sections of the refrigerator. Fluctuating temperatures, audible coolant flow noises, or leaks around valve connection points are also signs it may need replacing. 

Symptoms of a bad valve include:

• Inconsistent refrigerator and freezer temperatures 
• Freezer that isn't cold enough 
• Refrigerator that is too warm
• Coolant leaks
• Loud noises or vibration

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
 

Left Hand Closer

This drain tube gasket seals the connection between the drain tube and its mating port to prevent leaks. A tight seal helps keep water where it belongs and protects surrounding components from moisture damage.

• Creates a watertight seal at the drain tube connection point
• Can help address water leaks around the drain area
• Deterioration, cracking, or hardening of the old gasket may cause seepage
• Replacing a worn gasket can restore proper leak prevention

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water supply before service
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water when disconnecting the tube
• Inspect the tube and mating surfaces; clean before installing the new gasket
• Do not overtighten fittings; verify a snug, even seal and check for leaks on first run

Color: White. Size: 2 oz. can. Porcelain touch-up paint.

This factory screw secures appliance components so they stay aligned and firmly attached during everyday use. Replacing a missing or damaged screw helps stop rattles, looseness, and poor fit that can affect performance over time.

• Fastens panels, brackets, or hardware to keep assemblies tight
• Helps correct issues like loose handles, vibrating panels, or misaligned parts
• Restores proper fit after a screw is stripped, corroded, or lost
• Built to match the original thread and length for reliable engagement

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water before servicing
• Use the correct driver to avoid stripping the head or threads
• Start threads by hand to prevent cross-threading; tighten snugly without over-torquing
• Replace any companion fasteners that are worn or missing for even clamping

This water tube guides the refrigerator's water from the inlet to the dispenser and ice maker, ensuring a steady flow where needed. Replaces a damaged or clogged tube to restore proper water delivery and help prevent leaks. What it does

• Channels incoming water to the dispenser and ice maker assemblies.
• Restores normal dispenser flow when the original tube is cracked, pinched, or blocked.
• Helps stop leaks that occur from split or deteriorated tubing.
• Supports proper ice maker fill cycles by maintaining an unobstructed water path.

• One replacement water tube.

• Turn off the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before starting work.
• Inspect and replace any worn clamps, seals, or grommets encountered during installation.
• Use appropriate hand tools; avoid overtightening fittings to prevent damage.

This support secures a mating part inside the appliance, keeping it properly positioned and stable during operation. Replacing a cracked or missing support restores correct fitment and helps prevent looseness, vibration, and related performance issues.

• Holds the associated shelf/panel/assembly in place
• Maintains alignment to reduce movement and rattling
• Replaces broken, warped, or missing support hardware
• Common symptoms: loose or sagging component, rattling noises, difficulty keeping the part seated, visible cracks or broken tabs

• Disconnect power; shut off water before servicing
• Note the original orientation and mounting points before removal
• Transfer and reuse existing screws/clips as required; seat the new support fully and tighten fasteners carefully to avoid damage
• The supported component sits level and secure before restoring power

This flipper spring returns the refrigerator's ice dispenser door (chute flapper) to the closed position after dispensing. It helps keep warm air and moisture out to minimize frost at the chute and reduce ice clumping in the bin.

• Provides the closing tension for the ice chute door/flapper
• Helps maintain a proper seal at the dispenser opening
• If worn or broken, you may notice the flapper not closing fully
• Frost/condensation around the chute or ice clumping in the bucket may occur

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove dispenser trim/control to access the ice chute door assembly; note spring orientation and anchor points
• Install the new spring in the same orientation; the flapper moves freely and closes under spring tension
• Wear gloves and use caution—metal edges in the dispenser area can be sharp

This replacement screw fastens trim, panels and small components to restore secure attachment and reduce rattling or movement. Use when a screw is missing, stripped, or damaged to keep parts aligned and operating quietly. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets and trim to appliance assemblies
• Prevents vibration, rattling and misalignment caused by missing or damaged fasteners
• Replaces lost or stripped screws that can allow gaps or loose parts
• Helps maintain safe, stable operation by keeping components properly fastened

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before accessing interior panels
• Use the proper screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head
• Align parts before tightening and tighten until snug—do not overtighten
• Replace only with the correct OEM part to ensure proper fit and function

This 10-16 screw secures panels, brackets, and internal components in your appliance. Replacing a missing or stripped fastener restores a snug fit, reduces vibration and rattling, and keeps parts properly anchored for reliable operation.

• Provides 10-16-thread fastening for sheet metal, plastic, and bracket assemblies
• Direct replacement for a missing, worn, or stripped factory screw
• Helps address loose or rattling panels or covers that won't stay secured
• Supports proper alignment and retention of internal components

• Disconnect power; shut off water and/or gas before servicing
• Match the new screw to the original location and length; replace like-for-like
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the correct driver for the head style
• Tighten snugly; do not overtighten into plastic or thin sheet metal

A replacement tension/return spring that restores proper tension and return action to the appliance component it supports. Helps stop sagging, reduce noise, and return moving parts to their intended position for reliable operation. What it does

• Provides tension and controlled return for a door, latch, lever or similar moving part.
• Restores correct alignment and helps parts stay closed or in their resting position.
• Reduces rattling, popping or grinding noises caused by a weakened or broken spring.
• Common symptom: parts that sag, fail to stay closed, or don't return smoothly after use.

• Disconnect power (and gas/water if applicable) before starting any repair.
