Wrx986ihz00 Parts

The Wire Harness is an OEM component for Whirlpool refrigerators. As the framework that powers all electronic systems, it plays a vital connecting role. 

The harness incorporates precisely engineered cabling to route electrical signals and low-voltage DC power throughout the appliance in a protected bundle. Strategically placed terminals link to each component board and relay. 

Causes for wire harness issues include pinched insulation from improper installation, short circuits due to nicks/cuts in the sheathing over time, or broken connectors that disrupt circuit pathways.

Symptoms of a bad wire harness can include:

• Lights, fans, or temperature control malfunctions 
• Failure to power on or intermittent cut-outs
• Tripped circuit breakers/blown fuses for the fridge  
• Wire cracking, looseness at bundle ties

Compatible with models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, and select Kenmore as well for continued reliability.

A small replacement retainer that secures internal components and trim pieces so they stay properly aligned and stable. Restoring a broken retainer helps stop rattling and keeps parts seated for reliable operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim, or small assemblies in place to prevent shifting
• Reduces vibration and rattling caused by a loose or broken clip
• Keeps wiring or hoses routed and held away from moving parts
• Helps maintain proper alignment of the part it supports

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock
• Use basic hand tools; inspect surrounding parts for damage before reinstalling
• Handle sharp sheet-metal edges carefully and wear gloves if needed
• Replace only the failed retainers; verify fit before final reassembly

This support is a replacement mounting bracket that secures internal components and panels so they stay properly aligned and stable. It restores correct fit and reduces movement from normal use. What it does:

• Provides a secure mounting point for internal panels or components to prevent sagging or rattling
• Restores alignment for panels that sit uneven or loose
• Helps stop vibration noise caused by worn or broken supports
• Protects connected parts from stress or damage due to improper support

• One support

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Basic tools typically required; handle parts carefully to avoid scratching or bending
• Keep fasteners and hardware; replace any damaged screws or clips as needed
• Refer to the parts diagram for exact placement and torque specs

This evaporator cover is the molded shroud that protects the freezer evaporator and helps direct airflow for consistent cooling. It replaces a damaged or missing cover to reduce frost buildup and improve temperature performance. What it does:

• Shields the evaporator coil from physical damage and debris
• Directs airflow over the evaporator for more even cooling
• Helps reduce frost buildup and ice forming on the coil
• Can reduce vibration/noise caused by loose or broken shrouds
• Addresses symptoms like excessive frost, uneven temperatures, or unusual freezer noise

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Remove food, shelving, and interior panels as needed to access the evaporator compartment
• Handle carefully to avoid bending the evaporator coil or damaging mounting tabs
• Defrost and dry the area before installing the new cover

This is a replacement 8-18 threaded screw used to secure components in compatible Whirlpool appliances. It provides a like-for-like fastening option when an original screw is lost or damaged, restoring proper fit and function. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, or components where an 8-18 thread screw is required
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing screws to stop rattles and looseness
• Matches the fastening method used by the original equipment for reliable hold
• Suitable for areas where the OEM specified an 8-18 threaded screw

• Screw (single)

• Use the correct driver and size to avoid stripping the head or damaging mating threads
• Tighten to snug fit; avoid over-torquing which can strip threads or crack plastic parts
• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting repairs when working near electrical components

This is the door filter access cover that protects and secures the refrigerator's water/filter access opening, keeping the filter compartment closed and helping maintain a clean, finished door appearance. What it does

• Covers the water/filter access opening so the filter stays secured and concealed.
• Helps prevent debris from entering the filter compartment.
• Restores a proper door seal and fit when the original cover is cracked, broken, or missing.
• Common symptom: cover is loose, cracked, or won't latch, exposing the filter area.

• Turn off water supply and remove the filter per manufacturer instructions before replacing the cover.
• Typically installs with clips or screws—align the cover, press into clips or reinstall fasteners.
• Inspect surrounding trim and gasket for damage and replace if necessary to ensure proper fit.

A right-hand stop pan that secures and positions the assembly to prevent over-travel and maintain proper alignment. Restores correct movement and helps reduce noise or binding caused by a damaged or missing stop pan. What it does:

• Holds the component in the correct position to limit travel and prevent contact with adjacent parts
• Helps maintain proper alignment for smooth operation
• Can reduce rubbing, binding, or abnormal noises when worn or broken
• Supports reliable function of the surrounding assembly

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before starting any repair
• Access may require removing exterior panels or trim; keep track of fasteners
• Inspect surrounding mounts and hardware; replace any damaged clips or screws

A replacement rubber grommet that cushions and protects openings where wiring or components pass through metal panels. Restores proper fit and helps prevent rubbing, chafing, and vibration-related noise. What it does:

• Cushions and isolates wiring, harnesses or shafts from metal edges
• Prevents abrasion and chafing that can cause wire damage or shorts
• Reduces vibration and squeaks where parts pass through panels
• Recommended when grommet is cracked, torn, flattened, or missing

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing the grommet
• Remove surrounding panels as needed to access the damaged grommet
• Press-fit into the panel opening; ensure the grommet seats fully and the wire/harness sits in the groove
• Replace any damaged wiring or clips discovered during installation; avoid sharp tools that can nick the rubber

This replacement cover is a molded housing piece that protects internal components and restores the appliance's exterior appearance. It keeps wiring and controls shielded while helping reduce noise and debris entry. What it does:

• Protects internal components and wiring from physical damage and contamination
• Helps reduce vibration noise and rattling by covering exposed parts
• Restores a finished appearance to the appliance cabinet or control area
• Can prevent loose parts from shifting during operation

• Disconnect power (unplug appliance or switch off breaker) before beginning service
