Parts for Ge TBC21JASMRWH: 06 - Unit Parts

This defrost thermostat monitors the evaporator coil temperature and controls power to the defrost heater. Replacing a failed thermostat restores proper defrosting, reduces frost buildup, and helps keep fresh food and freezer compartments cooling as designed.

• Senses evaporator temperature to open/close the defrost heater circuit at the correct point in the cycle
• Protects against overheating during defrost by interrupting power when the set temperature is reached
• Helps prevent heavy frost/ice accumulation on the evaporator and loss of airflow
• Common signs it may be bad: ice behind the freezer rear panel, warm refrigerator section, unit never defrosts or refreezes soon after a manual defrost

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the freezer's rear panel to access the evaporator; the thermostat is typically clamped to an evaporator tube
• Match wire positions and mount the new thermostat in the same location with firm contact to the tubing
• Route wires away from the fan and sharp edges; reassemble and verify normal defrost operation

This cable clamp secures refrigerator wiring to the cabinet, keeping harnesses organized and protected. Replacing a missing or damaged clamp helps prevent chafing and vibration noise while maintaining proper clearance from fans and other moving components.

• Anchors wire harnesses in their designed routing
• Helps prevent insulation wear from rubbing or vibration
• Keeps wires clear of sharp edges and moving parts
• Common signs it's needed: missing/broken clamp, loose or dangling wires, or new rattling/buzzing noises

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the clamp location and note original wire routing
• Position the clamp and secure with the existing fastener; do not overtighten
• Ensure wires aren't pinched and have clearance from the fan/compressor before restoring power

This power cord assembly supplies electrical power from the wall outlet to your refrigerator. Replace a cut, frayed, or overheated cord to restore safe, reliable operation and eliminate intermittent power loss caused by a damaged cord. What it does:

• Provides the electrical connection between the household outlet and the refrigerator's wiring
• Helps resolve no-power or intermittent power when the cord is moved
• Addresses visible damage such as cuts, cracks, fraying, or a melted/discolored plug
• Mitigates arcing, sparking, or a burning odor originating from the cord or plug area

• One power cord assembly

• Disconnect power by unplugging the unit or switching off the circuit breaker before servicing
• Pull the refrigerator forward for access; note the original cord routing and connections
• Install the new cord along the same path and secure any built-in strain relief; ensure the ground connection is properly seated
• Restore power and verify operation

The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to circulate air through the condenser coils, helping to dissipate heat and keep the refrigerator's internal components cool. This ensures efficient operation and prevents the compressor from overheating, which is essential for maintaining the refrigerator's performance and longevity.

You should replace the condenser fan motor if it becomes faulty. Causes of a bad fan motor can include electrical failures, wear and tear from regular use, or blockages that cause the motor to overheat or burn out. A malfunctioning fan motor can lead to inadequate cooling, increased energy consumption, and potential damage to other refrigerator components.

Symptoms of a bad condenser fan motor include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• Unusual noises coming from the back of the refrigerator
• The compressor running hot or cycling on and off frequently
• The condenser coils feeling excessively hot

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.

A replacement motor start/run capacitor that helps restore reliable motor starting and smooth operation for compressors and fans. Installing the correct capacitor can reduce hard-starts, humming and intermittent motor operation. What it does:

• Provides the temporary boost motors need to start and stabilize while running.
• Helps compressors and fan motors start more easily and run more efficiently.
• Commonly associated with symptoms like humming, motors that won't start, intermittent operation, or reduced cooling performance.
• Prevents repeated motor stress that can lead to overload trips or premature motor wear.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components.
• Discharge the capacitor and tag/photograph wire locations before removal to ensure correct reinstallation.
• Replace with the exact OEM part or an approved equivalent; do not bend or puncture the capacitor can.

This is a replacement screw used to secure appliance components and panels so parts stay properly attached for safe operation. It's a direct-fit fastener matching OEM form and function. What it does

• Secures panels, trim, or internal components to prevent rattling or gaps
• Restores factory attachment where a screw is missing or stripped
• Helps maintain proper alignment of housing and service access
• Suitable when repair requires original-fit fasteners

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before servicing to avoid shock
• Use the matching screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Thread carefully and avoid overtightening to prevent damage to threads or plastic parts
• Keep removed screws organized; replace only the screws that match the original locations

This slotted foam plug seals a small access opening in the refrigerator cabinet to help maintain insulation and reduce air and moisture infiltration. It's a simple replacement that restores a tighter cabinet seal and helps the appliance run more efficiently. What it does:

• Blocks service or wiring access holes to help prevent warm air entering the cabinet
• Helps maintain insulation at a penetration point to reduce frost and condensation
• Cushions and stabilizes wiring or tubing routed through the opening
• Reduces noise and vibration where parts pass through the cabinet

• Disconnect power before servicing the appliance to avoid shock
• Remove the relevant access panel or trim to reach the opening, then press the plug into the hole until seated
• Trim excess foam only if explicitly required for fit; avoid using solvents or adhesives unless specified by OEM
• Replace the plug if torn, compressed, or degraded to maintain proper sealing
