Parts for Frigidaire FAD052M7A1: 03 - Spare Parts

This plastic filter holder retainer secures the refrigerator water/air filter assembly in place so the filter stays seated and sealed for reliable operation. Durable molded plastic matches OEM fit and mounting points. What it does

• Holds the filter assembly firmly in the housing to prevent loosening or misalignment
• Helps maintain a proper seal so water and air flow through the filter as intended
• Commonly replaced when the retainer is cracked, broken, or fails to latch
• Fits the original filter housing mounting points for correct engagement

• One plastic filter holder retainer

• Basic hand tools may be required; access the filter housing per your model's service instructions
• Inspect the filter and housing for damage before installing the retainer
• Replace only with the matching part number to ensure proper fit and secure latch
• Disconnect power/water supply if required by your model before servicing

This horizontal louver restores the vent/grille that directs airflow and helps protect internal components. It replaces a cracked, broken, or missing louver to improve airflow path and appearance. What it does

• Directs and channels airflow through the appliance vent
• Protects internal openings from debris and large particles
• Restores finished look where the original louver was damaged or missing
• Helps reduce uneven cooling or airflow-related noise when grille is intact

• One horizontal louver

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove any surrounding trim or fasteners carefully to avoid damage
• Typical install uses common hand tools (screwdriver); handle plastic parts gently to prevent cracking

This control knob is the replacement dial used to select heat settings on a range or cooktop. It restores a secure grip and clear setting control so burners and oven functions can be adjusted safely. What it does

• Replaces a worn, cracked, or broken control knob to restore user control of temperature and burner selection
• Fits on standard stove/range control shafts to provide a positive detent at each setting
• Helps stop slippage and improves ease of turning for precise setting changes
• Common symptom fixes: knob won't turn, loose or spinning knob, missing or damaged knob markings

• One control knob

• Remove power to the appliance before servicing (unplug or shut off breaker) and allow surfaces to cool
• Pull off the old knob straight from the control shaft; align and push the new knob fully onto the shaft until it seats
• If the knob does not fit securely, verify shaft type (round, D-shaft, splined) and orientation before forcing

This temperature control thermostat regulates refrigerator temperature by switching the cooling system on and off, helping restore stable interior temperatures and consistent food preservation. It replaces a failing control to return proper temperature regulation. What it does

• Acts as the user-set temperature control that signals the cooling system to run or stop
• Can stop the compressor or fans from cycling correctly when it fails
• Commonly linked to symptoms like inconsistent temperatures, unit running constantly, or no cooling
• Engages the cooling circuit when the interior warms above the set point

• One temperature control thermostat

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or damage
• Access may require removing the control panel or console—keep track of screws and hardware
• Handle control and any attached sensing elements carefully; avoid bending or kinking

This evaporator fan motor circulates cold air inside the freezer and refrigerator compartments to maintain even cooling and proper temperature distribution. Replacing a faulty motor restores airflow and improves cooling performance. What it does:

• Spins the evaporator fan blade to move cold air through the evaporator and into the compartments
• Helps prevent warm spots and temperature fluctuations by maintaining steady airflow
• Can cause noisy operation, reduced cooling, or frost buildup when failing
• Works with the defrost system and thermostat to keep the cooling cycle balanced

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Handle the fan blade and motor mounting carefully to avoid bending or damaging components
• Verify wiring and connector fit before securing the motor; follow OEM wiring orientation
