Causes of a bad evaporator fan motor can include electrical malfunctions, accumulation of debris, or normal wear and tear over time. If the fan motor fails, it can lead to inadequate cooling and uneven temperatures within the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan motor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not cooling properly
• Unusual noises coming from the freezer
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• The refrigerator running continuously or cycling on and off frequently

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

The Evaporator Fan Blade is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is designed to circulate air over the evaporator coils, ensuring efficient cooling throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments. The fan blade helps maintain an even temperature, contributing to the appliance's overall performance.

Causes of a bad fan blade can include wear and tear over time, ice buildup interfering with the blade, or physical damage from accidental impact or obstruction by debris.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan blade include:

• Unusual noises such as rattling or scraping
• Inconsistent or insufficient cooling in the refrigerator or freezer
• The refrigerator running longer than usual
• Visible damage or warping of the fan blade

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

The Thermostat Tube Shield is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It functions as a barrier that covers and insulates the temperature control thermostat capillary tube. This shield ensures accurate temperature sensing and regulation by protecting the capillary tube from physical damage and external temperature influences.

Over time, the thermostat tube shield can become worn out or damaged due to factors like regular wear and tear, accidental impact, or environmental conditions such as humidity and temperature fluctuations. 

Symptoms of a bad thermostat tube shield include:

• Inconsistent or inaccurate refrigerator temperatures
• The refrigerator running continuously or cycling on and off frequently
• Visible damage or wear to the shield
• Difficulty in maintaining the desired temperature settings

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

This overload with relay is a thermal motor protector and starter relay assembly that helps prevent motor overheating and enables proper motor start-up. Replacing a worn assembly restores reliable motor starting and protection. What it does:

• Protects the motor from overheating by opening circuit when temperatures get too high
• Provides the relay function that helps the motor start and run smoothly
• Commonly used when the dryer or washer motor hums but won't start, runs intermittently, or stalls
• Helps stop repeated motor runs that can lead to burned windings or further electrical damage

• One overload with relay assembly

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before starting any work
• Handle terminals carefully; verify wire locations or take a photo before removal for correct reassembly
• Test the old unit for continuity and compare mounting/terminal orientation to fit

This terminal block cover protects the appliance's electrical connection area from accidental contact and debris, helping reduce the risk of shorts and corrosion while keeping wiring secure and contained. What it does:

• Covers and shields the power terminal/block where the power cord connects
• Helps prevent accidental contact with live terminals and reduces short risk
• Keeps out dust, lint and debris that can cause corrosion or arcing
• Useful when the original cover is cracked, missing or showing burn marks

• Always disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before servicing electrical components
• Typically installs over the terminal block and secures with the existing fastener(s); inspect mounting hardware for wear
• Replace if cracked, melted or if terminals are exposed; ensure cover seats fully before restoring power

The Condenser Motor Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It includes a motor, fan blade, wire harness, and hardware, designed to replace the existing condenser motor in your refrigerator. This kit is crucial for maintaining the appliance's cooling efficiency by circulating air through the condenser coils and over the compressor, helping to dissipate heat and prevent overheating. 

Over time, the condenser motor can fail due to mechanical wear, electrical issues, or blockages that restrict airflow and cause the motor to overheat.  

Symptoms of a bad Condenser Motor Kit include:

• The refrigerator does not cool adequately
• Unusual noises from the back of the refrigerator where the motor is located
• The refrigerator compressor runs hotter than normal
• Increased electrical consumption as the refrigerator tries to maintain cooling efficiency

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

This rubber grommet cushions and secures the compressor to the fridge frame, helping reduce vibration and noise while protecting mounting hardware. It's a direct-fit replacement for a single compressor mounting point. What it does:

• Absorbs compressor vibration to reduce operational noise and rattling
• Protects compressor studs and mounting bracket from metal-on-metal wear
• Helps keep the compressor properly positioned during operation
• Commonly replaced when cracked, flattened, or missing and causing vibration or noise

• One compressor-mount grommet

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Support the compressor or work with the unit tilted to relieve pressure on mounts
• Remove old grommet(s) and clean mounting surfaces before installing the new grommet
• If multiple mounts show wear, replace them as a set for balanced support

The Screw is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This screw secures the refrigerator door hinge in place, allowing the door operates smoothly and seals properly. 

Over time, screws can become loose or go missing during repairs or adjustments, which can lead to a misaligned door, compromised sealing, and increased energy consumption. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• The refrigerator door seems misaligned or does not close properly.
• Increased effort needed to open or close the door.
• Unusual gaps around the door seal when closed.
• The door might squeak or make other noises during operation.

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

• Helps prevent rattling, buzzing, or humming sounds from a loose fan mount
• Maintains proper fan alignment to avoid blade contact with shrouds or brackets
• Replaces aged, cracked, or compressed rubber that can lead to increased vibration

• Disconnect power before service; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the fan assembly (rear or evaporator section), support the motor, and remove the old grommet
• Press the new grommet fully into the bracket or housing; transfer any spacers as originally configured
• Reinstall the motor and verify the fan blade spins freely with no contact before restoring power
