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

Includes service line.

Main wire harness for freezers. Connects electrical components inside the unit. Replace if wires are frayed, damaged, or connectors are broken or melted.

Fix frost buildup in your freezer with this defrost heater assembly. Melts ice off the evaporator coils during defrost cycles. Includes thermostat.

Freezer won't stay cold or runs too cold? A faulty heat exchanger disrupts refrigerant flow. Requires professional brazing and refrigerant recharge.

Freezer not cooling or running constantly? The evaporator may have failed. Professional installation recommended due to refrigerant system work.

The EVAPORATOR INSULATOR is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is a heat-resistant insulating pad or wrap that surrounds the evaporator coils. The insulator works to retain cool air and prevent warmer air from entering the refrigerated compartment.  

Causes of a bad insulator can include deterioration or breakdown of insulating properties over time due to aging materials. Cracks, holes, or compressed sections of the insulator result in reduced insulation performance.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator insulator include:

• Inconsistently cool or warmer fridge temperatures 
• Frost or ice buildup on evaporator coils or surrounding areas
• Higher than normal electric bills from inefficient cooling
• Warm or cold spots inside refrigerator shelves and compartments

This OEM Frigidaire replacement insulator is compatible with some Kitchenaid, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator models. 

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.

Mounting screw for freezers and refrigerators. Secures internal components, panels, or shelving. Replace if stripped, missing, or damaged during repairs.

Refrigerator not cooling or freezer not freezing? This compressor kit circulates refrigerant to restore proper cooling. Advanced repair, requires HVAC expertise.

If your freezer won't start or cool, the start relay may have failed. This electro-mechanical switch signals the compressor to activate the cooling cycle.

Replacement mounting clip for freezers and refrigerators. Secures interior panels and trim to prevent rattling. Replaces broken or missing clips.

This small plastic clip secures the dishwasher drain hose to the pump assembly or discharge fitting, keeping the hose in place and helping prevent leaks or disconnection during operation. What it does:

• Holds the drain hose firmly to the pump or outlet fitting to maintain a watertight connection
• Prevents the hose from slipping free during drain cycles
• Helps stop water leaks and washing chamber flooding caused by a loose hose
• Useful when replacing a cracked or broken retaining clip

• One drain hose retaining clip

• Disconnect power and water supply before accessing the dishwasher lower access area
• Remove the access panel or kickplate to reach the drain hose and pump connection
• Use pliers or a flat tool to remove the old clip and snap the new clip over the hose/fitting until fully seated
• After installation, run a short drain cycle and inspect for leaks; re-secure if necessary

Fix a freezer that won't start or runs hot with this run capacitor. Helps the compressor motor start and run efficiently. Moderate DIY repair.

Replacement screw that secures brackets, shelves, trim, panels, and covers inside your appliance. Install when the original is missing, stripped, or corroded.

This replacement power cord delivers household electricity from the outlet to your appliance. Installing a new cord restores safe, reliable power when the original is damaged, worn, or causing intermittent operation.

• Supplies AC power from a household outlet to the unit
• Common fix for no power, flickering lights, or power loss when the cord is moved
• Replaces cords with cuts, cracks, burn marks, or melted areas
• Restores a secure electrical connection for safe, consistent operation

• Unplug the appliance and verify the wall outlet is working before replacing parts
• Access the cord routing and internal connections; note wire positions and routing before removal
• Transfer and secure any strain relief/clamp; keep wiring clear of sharp edges and hot surfaces
• After installation, ensure the cord isn't pinched and the plug seats fully in the outlet

Small mounting bracket that holds shelves or baskets inside your freezer. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing to restore secure, level positioning.

This #8-32 x 3/8 screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and assemblies. Replace a missing or stripped fastener to keep parts tight and aligned, reduce vibration, and restore proper fit in compatible refrigerators and freezers.
