Parts for Ge MTK21GAXHRAA: 06 - Unit Parts

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component plays a crucial role in the defrost system by regulating the temperature within the freezer. It ensures the defrost heater activates when the temperature rises above a certain threshold, preventing ice build-up on the evaporator coils and maintaining efficient cooling.

Over time, the defrost thermostat can fail due to electrical issues, prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures, or wear and tear from regular use. When this part fails, it can lead to improper defrost cycles, causing ice accumulation and reducing the refrigerator's efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad defrost thermostat include:

• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer
• Inconsistent temperatures in the refrigerator and freezer compartments
• Refrigerator running continuously or not running at all
• Leaking water inside the fridge due to melted ice

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This screw secures panels and components on compatible GE appliances to restore proper fit and reduce vibration. Use it to replace a lost or stripped fastener and keep covers and brackets held firmly in place. What it does:

• Fastens access panels, trim pieces, or internal brackets to maintain proper alignment
• Stops rattling or vibration caused by missing or loose screws
• Restores secure mounting after repair or parts replacement
• Works where the appliance requires a short sheet-metal or machine screw for fastening

• Disconnect power to the appliance before removing panels or performing repairs.
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Hand-start the screw to ensure proper threading; tighten until snug but avoid over-torquing.

The R134 Drier is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component plays a critical role in the refrigeration system by removing moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant, ensuring efficient cooling and preventing damage to other parts of the system. It helps maintain the purity and effectiveness of the refrigerant as it cycles through the system.

You should replace the R134 drier if it becomes clogged or damaged. Common causes of a bad drier include wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or contamination from other failing components in the refrigeration system.

Symptoms of a bad R134 drier include:

• Reduced cooling efficiency
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• Unusual noises from the refrigeration system
• Increased energy consumption
• Refrigerator not maintaining the set temperature

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
