This compressor mounting clip secures the compressor to its chassis to reduce movement and noise for reliable operation. It replaces worn or broken clips that allow the compressor to shift during use. What it does:

• Holds the compressor in place on the mounting bracket to prevent shifting
• Reduces vibration and rattling noises caused by a loose mount
• Helps maintain proper compressor alignment for steady operation
• Useful when a cracked or bent clip no longer secures the compressor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing compressor area
• Inspect surrounding mounts and rubber isolators; replace if damaged
• Secure clip fully so compressor is held without forcing or misaligning components

This compressor grommet is a rubber mounting isolator that cushions and secures the compressor to the appliance chassis, helping reduce vibration and noise while preventing metal-to-metal contact and premature wear. What it does:

• Cushions compressor movement to reduce vibration transmitted to the cabinet
• Dampens noise and rattling caused by compressor operation
• Prevents direct metal-to-metal contact that can wear mounting points
• Helps keep the compressor positioned and secured under load

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the compressor or base pan
• Replace grommets while supporting the compressor to avoid strain on lines and connections
• Inspect remaining mounting grommets; replace all worn isolators for best performance

Made for use with refrigerators by several major manufacturers, this is a full compressor kit. It is an internal part that is tasked with moving refrigerant throughout the appliance. It also works by adding pressure to part of the circuit to heat up the refrigerant. This creates a high pressure, hot gas that is moved to the compressor to be cooled and used to keep the appliance at the appropriate temperature. If the compressor is damaged or broken, it can cause the refrigerator to start making loud noises. The compressor may turn on and off more frequently than expected, created overheating and improper cooling, and create clicking noises. If the compressor kit is damaged, it should be replaced. Turn off the circuit breaker or unplug the refrigerator. Pull out the refrigerator and take off the access plate. Let it cool down before the compressor is removed. Use the contents of the kit to replace the part before reassembling and turning the power back on.This is a genuine OEM replacement part that can be used with Frigidaire, Kenmore, Gibson, Westinghouse, Tappan, Crosley, Kelvinator, Universal, and Electrolux freezers and refrigerators. It is sold as an individual part.

This small mounting clip secures interior or cabinet components to keep panels and trim stable, helping reduce noise and maintain proper alignment. It's a simple replacement that restores a snug fit where the original clip has broken or worn. What it does:

• Holds panels, trim, or small components in place to prevent gaps or rattling
• Restores proper alignment of clipped parts after damage or wear
• Maintains a secure attachment point for adjacent parts during normal use
• Helps prevent moisture or debris from entering behind secured panels

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before accessing internal components
• Handle the clip and surrounding trim carefully to avoid cracking adjacent plastic
• Use basic hand tools as needed; do not force clips into place—align before snapping
• Replace any damaged mounting features for a secure fit

This capacitor stores and releases electrical energy to help the refrigerator's compressor start and run smoothly. Replacing a weak or failed capacitor can restore reliable compressor startup and more consistent cooling performance.

• Provides the electrical boost/phase shift needed for compressor motor startup and steady operation
• Works with the start device to deliver proper current to the compressor
• Failure symptoms can include clicking or humming near the compressor, poor cooling, or short cycling
• May cause the compressor not to start after power interruptions when weak or failed

• Disconnect power before servicing any electrical component
• Safely discharge the capacitor before handling; avoid touching terminals
• Note wire positions and terminal markings; transfer leads one at a time to the matching terminals
• Secure the capacitor in its mounting/bracket to prevent vibration damage
