The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This motor is responsible for powering the fan that cools the condenser coils, which helps dissipate heat from the refrigerator. Proper functioning of the condenser fan motor is crucial for maintaining the efficiency and cooling performance of the refrigerator.

Causes of a bad condenser fan motor can include wear and tear from regular use, dust and debris buildup, or electrical failures. A faulty fan motor can lead to overheating of the condenser coils, which can cause the refrigerator to operate inefficiently or stop cooling altogether.

Symptoms of a bad Condenser Fan Motor include:

• The refrigerator running warmer than usual
• The condenser coils being hot to the touch
• The fan not spinning or making unusual noises
• Increased energy consumption

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Note: Due to a manufacturing change, if your original fan motor has a 3-terminal connector, order fan motor W10124096 which includes an adapter harness to convert to the new 4-terminal connector.

This grommet is a small protective seal used where a hose, tube, wire, or component passes through or mounts to the appliance cabinet. It cushions the connection and helps prevent leaks, vibration, and wear for reliable operation.

• Provides a snug barrier between parts and metal openings to protect hoses, tubes, and wiring
• Helps seal against moisture to reduce seepage
• Dampens vibration and rattling noises
• Replace if cracked, hardened, missing, or no longer stays seated; symptoms may include drips at a pass-through, buzzing/rattling, or a loose fit

• Disconnect power; shut off water supply if applicable
• Access the grommet location and note orientation/routing
• Remove the old grommet and clean the opening
• Press the new grommet fully into place; reassemble and test for leaks/noise

The Roller is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is designed to facilitate the smooth movement of your refrigerator, making it easier to position and clean underneath the appliance. The roller supports the weight of the refrigerator and allows for easy adjustments in placement.

Causes of a bad fridge roller can include wear and tear from frequent movement, exposure to heavy loads that can damage the roller, or accumulation of dirt and debris that can impede its function. When a roller is damaged, it can affect the stability and mobility of the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad Roller include:

• Difficulty moving the refrigerator
• Unusual noises when the refrigerator is moved
• Uneven leveling of the refrigerator
• The refrigerator not staying in place

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This start device initiates the appliance's drive system so cycles begin when you press start. It replaces a failed or intermittent start control to restore reliable cycle starts and responsive push-button operation. What it does:

• Sends the start signal to the drive/motor control so the washer/dryer begins its cycle
• Replaces a worn or failed start switch that can prevent the appliance from starting
• Helps resolve symptoms like no response when pressing Start, intermittent starts, or needing to jiggle the button
• Works as the user-interface start control in combo control assemblies

• Disconnect power before accessing controls to avoid shock or damage
• Handle control components gently; avoid touching circuit traces or contacts
• Verify proper orientation and connector seating during reassembly
• Test operation after installation; inspect associated control components

This extension is a replacement support piece that helps restore proper alignment and secure fit for the affected appliance component, improving function and preventing binding. It's a small structural part used where a factory extension is required. What it does

• Provides structural support and alignment for the mating part or assembly
• Helps restore smooth movement and prevent rubbing or binding of sliding components
• Addresses symptoms such as loose trim, uneven panels, or a drawer/panel that won't seat properly
• Useful when the original extension is cracked, broken, or missing

• One extension piece as pictured

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Basic hand tools are typically required; avoid forcing fasteners or assemblies
• Inspect mating parts for damage and replace any additional worn components for best results

This is a replacement hex-washer-head screw used to fasten panels and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances. It restores proper fastening to eliminate loose parts, rattles, or misaligned assemblies for safe, stable operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, and small assemblies to the appliance frame
• Prevents vibration-related noise and movement from loose fasteners
• Replaces missing, stripped, or corroded screws to restore fit and alignment
• Simple hardware fix that supports other component repairs

• Unplug the appliance or shut off power before servicing
• Use the correct-size hex or socket driver to avoid stripping the head
• Thread carefully and tighten until snug—do not overtighten to avoid damaging parts
• Inspect mating threads and replace any that are damaged

This wire harness assembly routes power and control signals between the appliance control and components, restoring reliable electrical connections for proper operation. It replaces damaged or worn wiring to help resolve intermittent or failed component function. What it does:

• Provides the electrical connections between controls, switches and components so circuits complete correctly
• Replaces frayed, burnt or broken wiring that can cause intermittent operation or component failure
• Helps address symptoms such as no power to a circuit, unresponsive controls, or intermittent cycling
• Ensures secure plug-and-play connections when the correct harness is used

• Disconnect power (unplug appliance or switch off breaker) before beginning work
• Take photos of existing wiring and connector orientations to ensure correct reinstallation
• Match connectors and routing to the original harness; secure with existing clips or ties

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for helping the compressor motor start and run efficiently by providing an extra electrical boost. This component ensures that the refrigerator operates smoothly and maintains the correct temperature by stabilizing the compressor's performance.

Causes of a bad run capacitor can include electrical surges, age-related wear, or overheating. When the capacitor fails, the compressor may struggle to start or run continuously, leading to inefficient cooling or a non-functional refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad run capacitor include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• The compressor not starting or running intermittently
• Unusual clicking noises from the refrigerator
