Aluminum strap secures the defrost heater against the evaporator coil. Replace if broken, cracked, or missing to maintain proper heater contact.

Includes service line.

Freezer not cooling properly or running constantly? The heat exchanger transfers heat from the refrigerant system. Moderate difficulty repair for experienced DIYers.

Support spacer for refrigerators. Installs between components to maintain proper alignment and clearance. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing.

Freezer runs constantly or has frost buildup? The defrost thermostat regulates temperature to prevent ice on coils. DIY-friendly repair in 1-2 hours.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire upright freezers. It serves as a crucial component responsible for regulating automatic defrost cycles.

Causes of a faulty defrost timer relate to 20,000+ hours of constant exposure to freezer temperatures as low as -10 degrees Fahrenheit. Such extremes can compromise electrical switching mechanisms over prolonged usage periods.

Symptoms of a failed defrost timer include:

• Inability to initiate automatic defrost modes  
• Excessive ice and frost accumulation inside cabinet
• Warm areas detected due to impaired fan circulation
• Diagnostic codes indicating defrosting problems

This genuine Frigidaire replacement part is compatible with Kelvinator and some Kenmore units as well.

Rubber mounting grommet that cushions and isolates the compressor from the chassis. Replace if cracked, worn, or missing to restore proper support.

A replacement compressor kit designed to restore the refrigeration system's ability to cool by replacing failed compressor components. Use this kit when the compressor assembly needs service or replacement. What it does:

• Replaces failed compressor components to help restore normal cooling performance
• Stops intermittent or complete loss of cooling often caused by compressor failure
• Helps address loud humming, grinding, or continuous running tied to compressor problems
• Supports proper refrigerant flow when installed and serviced

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before beginning any repairs
• Compressor and sealed-system service (evacuation, vacuum, refrigerant charging) must be performed
• Use proper handling and tools for refrigerant-containing components to avoid leaks and injury

Freezer won't start or starts intermittently? This electrical relay assembly restores reliable power switching to get your freezer running again.

Drip pan kit for freezers. Installs beneath the unit to collect condensation and defrost water. Replace if cracked, warped, or missing pieces.

Compressor vibrating or loose? This mounting screw secures the compressor in freezers and refrigerators. Simple fix, basic tools required.

This retainer lead wire secures appliance wiring to keep harnesses organized and away from heat or moving parts, reducing wear and accidental disconnection. It's a simple replacement to restore proper wire routing and protection. What it does:

• Clips or holds the wiring harness in place to prevent chafing and strain
• Helps keep wires away from hot surfaces, vents, or moving components
• Reduces risk of intermittent electrical connections caused by loose wiring
• Restores factory routing after service or component replacement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before installing to avoid shock or injury
• Remove any panels necessary to access the original retainer and wiring route
• Replace like-for-like, seating the retainer securely so the harness cannot shift
• If wires show damage or insulation wear, inspect further and replace damaged wiring before reassembly

Plastic spacer support bushing that mounts between refrigerator components to reduce vibration and noise. Replace if cracked, worn, or missing.
