Parts for Whirlpool EV120NXRQ03: 04 - Unit Parts

This fan blade mounts to the fan motor and circulates air through the appliance to maintain proper cooling and airflow. Replace a cracked, warped, or loose blade to quiet noise and restore consistent air movement. What it does:

• Presses onto the motor shaft to move air through the unit
• Helps maintain proper airflow across coils and through compartments
• Replaces a damaged or stripped-hub blade to prevent wobble and noise
• Common symptoms: weak or no airflow, rattling/scraping sounds, warm or inconsistent temperatures

• 1 fan blade

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Access the fan assembly and note blade orientation/airflow direction
• Remove any retainer and pull the old blade straight off; press the new blade on fully without bending the vanes
• Spin by hand to verify clearance and free movement before restoring power

This right-side evaporator cover gasket seals the evaporator cover to help prevent air leaks and reduce frost buildup, supporting consistent cooling and efficient refrigerator operation. What it does:

• Seals the evaporator cover to minimize warm air intrusion and reduce ice accumulation on the evaporator
• Helps maintain stable compartment temperatures for better cooling performance
• Reduces moisture and dripping that can cause water pooling inside the cabinet
• Can address symptoms such as increased frost on the evaporator, higher-than-normal temperatures, or water inside the fresh food/freezer area

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Remove necessary interior panels or shelves to access the evaporator cover per the service manual
• Seat the gasket fully around the cover flange; inspect the cover and seating surface for damage or debris

This defrost thermostat is a bi-metal switch that senses evaporator temperature during defrost and opens to stop heater power once the coil warms. Replacing a failed thermostat restores proper defrost, reducing ice buildup and airflow-related cooling problems.

• Monitors evaporator coil temperature during defrost
• Opens the heater circuit at a set temperature; recloses when cold for the next defrost
• Helps protect against overheating and ensures consistent defrost operation
• Common symptoms: heavy frost on the evaporator, weak airflow/warm fresh food section, repeated ice buildup after manual defrost

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the thermostat at the evaporator behind the freezer's rear panel
• Move wires one-for-one from the old part; mount in firm contact with the coil/tubing and secure leads away from the fan
• After installation, the thermostat should show continuity when cold and open circuit when warm

Pan-head screw used to secure panels, brackets and trim on Whirlpool appliances. Replacing a damaged or missing screw restores proper fastening to reduce vibration and keep assemblies aligned during operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets and trim pieces to the appliance chassis.
• Stops loose panels from rattling, vibrating or shifting during use.
• Used when the original screw is stripped, corroded or missing.
• OEM replacement that restores the original fastening point.

• Unplug the appliance or shut off power before working on it.
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Tighten until snug—do not overtighten or force in plastic parts.
• If the original hole or threads are damaged, inspect the surrounding area before reuse.

This wire harness routes electrical signals between the appliance control and internal components, restoring reliable communication and power paths. It replaces damaged or burned wiring to help resolve intermittent or failed control functions. What it does:

• Reconnects control board circuits to motors, switches, sensors, or terminal blocks
• Restores proper signal and power flow when wiring is damaged or shorted
• Helps stop intermittent operation, unexplained shutdowns, or control non-responsiveness
• Provides OEM-style replacement wiring and connector fit for direct swap

• Always disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit breaker) before installing
• Handle connectors by the housing; avoid pulling on individual wires
• Confirm connector orientation and secure all clips and fasteners for strain relief

This overload protector is a thermal motor protector that cuts power if the dryer motor overheats, helping prevent motor damage and unsafe operation. Replace a failed unit to restore the motor's built-in overheating protection. What it does:

• Senses excessive motor temperature and interrupts motor power to prevent damage.
• Common symptom: dryer may not start or the motor hums but won't turn when the overload has failed.
• Helps stop repeated motor overheating and can prevent associated electrical faults.
• Works as the motor's thermal safety device; must be replaced if open or damaged.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Transfer wiring and mounting exactly as removed; do not bypass the protector.
• Inspect motor and blower for obstructions or causes of overheating before reassembly.

This 10-32 x 3/8 machine screw secures panels and components in many appliances where a small, threaded fastener is required. It replaces stripped, missing, or loose screws to restore stable assembly and reduce vibration. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, and small components using 10-32 unified threads
• Restores secure mounting when screws are missing, stripped, or loose
• Helps stop rattling, misalignment, and intermittent part contact caused by loose fasteners
• Works wherever a 10-32 x 3/8 machine screw is specified by the manufacturer

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use the correct size screwdriver or nut driver to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-tightening which can strip threads or crack plastic
• Replace with the same size and thread spec to ensure proper fit and function
