Evaporator drip pan that collects defrost water and directs it to the drain, helping prevent leaks and puddles under the appliance. Restores proper drainage for reliable operation. What it does:

• Catches and channels defrost/condensate water away from the evaporator to prevent leaks beneath the unit.
• Helps stop water pooling or dripping from the bottom of the appliance.
• Reduces the risk of moisture-related odors or mildew by keeping drainage contained.
• Works with the refrigerator's drain system to promote normal defrost water flow.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any service.
• Access may require removing the toe grille or pulling the appliance out; follow the OEM service instructions for your model.
• Inspect and clear the drain tube and drain outlet while replacing the pan to ensure proper flow.
• Handle the pan carefully during installation and ensure it is seated so water flows into the drain as intended.

The Heater is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is responsible for preventing frost build-up on the evaporator coils by periodically heating them to melt any accumulated ice. This defrost process is essential for maintaining efficient cooling and proper airflow within the refrigerator.

Over time, the heater can fail due to electrical issues, wear and tear, or burnout from frequent cycling. When the heater is defective, it can lead to excessive frost build-up, which impairs the refrigerator's cooling performance.

Symptoms of a bad heater include:

• Frost or ice build-up on the evaporator coils
• Refrigerator or freezer not cooling properly
• Water leakage inside the refrigerator
• Long defrost cycles or constant running of the refrigerator

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