Parts for Whirlpool NWT0002D01: 04 - Unit Parts

This defrost heater mounts on the freezer evaporator and melts frost during the automatic defrost cycle, keeping air moving and temperatures stable. Replacing a failed heater helps restore cooling performance and prevents recurring ice buildup on the evaporator cover.

• Heats the evaporator coils at set intervals to clear frost and ice
• Helps maintain airflow to both compartments for consistent temperatures
• Prevents ice from blocking the evaporator fan and air passages
• Common failure symptoms: heavy frost on the back freezer wall, reduced cooling, longer run times, or fan noise from ice contact

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove freezer shelves/ice bin and the rear panel to access the evaporator
• Note wire routing and clip positions; handle the element carefully and reinstall in original clips away from plastic parts
• Reassemble and restore power; allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize

This run capacitor helps the dryer motor run smoothly by providing the motor with steady phase-shifted voltage during operation, improving start reliability and consistent spinning performance. What it does:

• Provides the motor with the necessary run-phase capacitance to maintain steady motor operation
• Can stop symptoms like a motor that hums, runs weakly, or struggles to keep the drum turning
• Helps prevent motor overheating and repeated start attempts caused by a failing capacitor
• Used wherever the motor's run capacitor is required for continuous operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to prevent shock
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals to avoid stored-charge shock
• Replace with the same part number/specifications; ensure terminals are secure and insulated

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

A combo start device that helps the compressor start and run reliably by providing the initial boost and protecting against motor overload. Replaces a worn or failed start relay/overload assembly to restore normal compressor operation. What it does:

• Provides the initial start boost to the compressor motor so the refrigeration system can begin cooling.
• Contains relay/overload elements that help protect the compressor from overheating or electrical faults.
• Commonly used when the compressor hums but won't start, cycles rapidly, or the refrigerator fails to maintain temperature.
• Works as a direct replacement for a failed start/relay assembly in compatible compressors.

• One combo start device (start relay/overload assembly)

• Always disconnect power before accessing the compressor or electrical components.
• Handle terminals carefully and match wiring orientation; replace with identical part number.
• After installation, verify compressor operation and listen for normal start/run behavior.

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 retaining clip secures trim, panels or small assemblies to keep parts aligned and prevent rattling. It's a simple replacement that restores a snug, stable fit where the original clip has broken or gone missing. What it does:

• Holds plastic or metal trim and panels in place to prevent gaps and movement
• Restores proper alignment and reduces vibration or rattling noises
• Keeps assembled components from shifting during normal use
• Useful when a damaged or missing clip causes loose or sagging parts

• One retaining clip

• Disconnect power and/or water to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Use needle-nose pliers or a flat screwdriver to remove the old clip and snap the replacement into place
• Verify the clip is fully seated and the panel/trim is secure before returning the appliance to service
• If the original clip required additional fasteners, retain and reuse them as needed
