The Pan-Drip is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is designed to collect and manage condensation and any water that may drip inside the refrigerator, preventing it from pooling at the bottom of the appliance. This pan measures approximately 20 inches by 16 inches with a 2-inch depth.

Causes of a bad pan-drip can include wear and tear over time, cracks or breaks due to impact, and buildup of dirt or debris that can block proper drainage. When the pan-drip fails, it can lead to water accumulation and potential leaks.

Symptoms of a bad Pan-Drip include:

• Water pooling inside the refrigerator
• Leaks from the bottom of the refrigerator
• Visible cracks or damage to the pan
• Mold or mildew buildup due to improper drainage

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

The Door Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It creates an essential seal around the refrigerator door, helping to maintain cool interior temperatures and energy efficiency.

Causes of a bad door gasket can include cracks, tears, or compressions from repeated closing of the door over many years of use. Exposure to heat or sharp objects may also damage the sealing material.  

Symptoms of a bad door gasket include: 

• Ineffective sealing allowing warm air into the refrigerator 
• Increased cooling requirement from the compressor to maintain temperatures
• Frost or moisture buildup around the door seal
• Gaps are visible along the door frame where the gasket makes contact

Color: Grey 

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

The Inverter Box is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool French door refrigerators. Located inside the refrigerator compartment top behind removable panels, the inverter box houses electronic components that control the compressor motor and refrigeration systems.

Causes of a bad inverter box include failure of internal circuit boards over several years of regulating refrigeration cycles or damage from liquid spills inside the unit.  

Symptoms of a bad inverter box include:

• Failure of the refrigerator section to adequately cool and maintain temperatures
• Erratic fluctuations in cold air dispensing from vents     
• Repeated triggering of defrosting modes unnecessarily 
• Inability to regulate between freezer and refrigerator settings

This Whirlpool replacement part is compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, and Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators.
 

The Freezer Drawer Front Cover is an OEM part for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. It forms the outer front panel of the lower freezer drawer, protecting contents from light exposure and external smudges or debris.

• Cracks, chips, or scratches exposing the interior to outside elements
• Gaps that compromise the drawer's sealing and efficiency 
• Discoloration detracting from the integrity of the overall appearance
• Difficulty opening or closing the freezer drawer smoothly

Causes can be general wear and tear over time from repeated usage, cracking from temperature fluctuations, or damage due to accidents like impacts.

This Whirlpool OEM part ensures optimum protection and aesthetics of your freezer space. It is also compatible with some KitchenAid, Maytag, and GE side-by-side models for a seamless replacement that restores your refrigerator's front facade.

The Heater is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a thin heating element located behind the cover for the ice compartment inside the fresh food section that functions to prevent condensation from accumulating.

This replacement screw fastens appliance panels and components securely. Replace a missing, stripped, or corroded original to restore a tight fit and help prevent rattling, vibration, and gradual loosening of assemblies.

• Secures panels, brackets, and internal assemblies to the frame
• Replaces damaged or missing hardware to maintain proper fit
• Helps reduce vibration, noise, and movement caused by loose parts
• Supports correct alignment at the original mounting points

• Disconnect power and shut off water or gas before service.
• Match the original screw's location and length; replace one at a time if needed.
• Use the correct driver/bit and avoid overtightening to prevent stripping plastic or metal.
• Reuse any washers or clips only if in good condition.

This condenser fan blade moves air across the refrigerator's condenser coil and compressor to remove heat, helping the unit cool efficiently. Replace a cracked, warped, or loose blade to restore proper airflow and reduce noise.

• Circulates air through the condenser section to dissipate heat from the refrigerant
• Supports stable fridge and freezer temperatures and efficient compressor operation
• Common symptoms: rattling/scraping noises, weak or no airflow at the rear/bottom, longer run times, or warming compartments
• Replace if the blade is cracked, warped, wobbling, or loose on the motor shaft

• Disconnect power and pull the refrigerator away from the wall; remove the rear access panel to reach the condenser fan
• Note the original blade orientation/rotation; remove the old blade from the motor shaft (release any retainer if present)
• Press the new blade onto the shaft until fully seated; ensure it spins freely with proper clearance and airflow direction
• Reinstall the panel, restore power, and verify normal airflow and sound
