Parts for Gibson GRT16CNHD4: System Parts

Includes service line.

This aluminum strap secures the defrost heater firmly against the evaporator coil to maintain proper contact during defrost. Correct contact improves heat transfer so frost melts evenly and helps prevent recurring ice buildup on the evaporator.

• Secures the defrost heater to the evaporator for proper contact and heat transfer
• Promotes complete, even defrosting across the evaporator coil
• Helps reduce repeat frost/ice accumulation caused by a shifted or loose heater
• Typical clues include a loose heater, uneven frost pattern, or rattling near the evaporator

• Disconnect power and allow ice to melt before accessing the evaporator
• Use care around sharp fins and fragile refrigerant tubing; do not puncture or deform the coil
• Position the heater per your model's parts diagram and tighten the strap for firm, even contact
• Verify wiring is routed clear of the fan and moving parts before reassembly

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. This component plays a crucial role in the defrost system, monitoring and regulating the temperature to ensure proper defrosting of the evaporator coils.

Causes of a faulty defrost thermostat can include normal wear and tear over time, exposure to excessive temperature fluctuations or moisture, or electrical malfunctions.

Symptoms of needing to replace the defrost thermostat include:

• Improper defrosting or lack of defrosting
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• The refrigerator running constantly or cycling frequently

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore refrigerator models.

This compressor mounting plate secures the compressor to the refrigerator chassis, helping maintain proper alignment and reduce vibration for quieter operation. Durable stamped metal designed to fit the factory mounting points. What it does:

• Secures the compressor assembly to the appliance frame to prevent movement
• Dampens and distributes compressor vibration to reduce noise
• Maintains compressor alignment for reliable operation
• Helps keep mounting hardware and rubber isolators in correct position

• Disconnect power to the appliance before service to avoid electrical shock
• Basic hand tools required; support the compressor when removing or installing mounting hardware
• Follow the OEM service manual for torque specs and detailed installation steps

This rubber compressor mounting grommet cushions and isolates the compressor to reduce vibration and noise that can transfer to the cabinet. It helps maintain stable compressor positioning for quieter, smoother operation. What it does:

• Absorbs compressor vibration to lower noise and rattling
• Dampens movement that can cause abrasion or wear on mounting hardware
• Helps maintain proper alignment of the compressor assembly
• Common symptom: excessive buzzing, vibration, or rattling from the back of the appliance

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Support the compressor before removing mounts to prevent shifting or damage.
• Inspect surrounding mounts and hardware; replace any worn or damaged pieces.

This PTC starter helps the compressor start by briefly supplying the correct current at startup, restoring reliable cooling when the compressor struggles to kick on. Compact replacement for failed or weak start devices. What it does

• Provides a timed boost to the compressor start winding so the compressor can start reliably
• Commonly used when a refrigerator or freezer won't start or hums without running
• Helps prevent frequent hard starts that can overheat the compressor
• Passive solid-state design with no moving parts for simple, maintenance-free operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the starter
• Handle electrical connections carefully; install the starter in the same orientation and wiring position as the original
• If the compressor or start relay shows additional damage, replace those components.

Galvanized Steel

The Compressor Run Capacitor is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. This electrical component is essential for providing the necessary torque to start and maintain the operation of the compressor motor, which is responsible for cooling the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a failing compressor run capacitor include:

• The refrigerator not running or cooling properly
• The compressor failing to start or running intermittently
• Humming or buzzing noises coming from the compressor area

Causes of needing to replace the compressor run capacitor can include normal wear over time, exposure to high temperatures or electrical surges, or physical damage to the capacitor itself.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore refrigerator models.
