This formed condenser assembly moves heat away from the refrigeration system to help your appliance maintain proper cooling. A direct-fit replacement when the original condenser is bent, corroded, or no longer transferring heat effectively. What it does:

• Provides the metal pathway for refrigerant to release heat from the system
• Helps maintain proper compressor and cooling performance
• Replace if coils are dented, crushed, corroded, or blocking airflow
• Address symptoms like higher-than-normal internal temperatures or increased compressor run time

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any service
• Handle edges carefully; condenser fins and tubing can be sharp and easily damaged
• If refrigerant lines must be opened or brazed, perform the service
• Fit and mounting hardware before installation; follow OEM diagram for proper routing

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

This compressor start device energizes the refrigerator compressor's start winding to begin the cooling cycle, then disengages it. Replacing a weak or failed start device can restore reliable starts and address repeated clicking and warm/no-cool symptoms.

• Provides initial power to the compressor's start winding for reliable startup
• Disengages the start circuit once the compressor is running
• Common failure symptoms: compressor won't start, frequent clicking from the rear, refrigerator or freezer not cooling
• Heat damage or burnt odor on the old device may be present when it fails

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the rear access panel to reach the compressor compartment
• Note wire positions; if your model uses a separate run capacitor, transfer it; move wires to the new device one at a time
• Align the device with the compressor terminals and press straight on until fully seated; reinstall any cover or retainer

This insul-sound deadening pad reduces vibration and noise by dampening panels and components in laundry and kitchen appliances. It's a small adhesive-backed sound/isolation pad used where noise or rattles transfer through metal surfaces. What it does

• Dampens rattles and reduces structure-borne noise from panels, cabinets and housings.
• Helps isolate vibrating components from appliance chassis to lower perceived sound.
• Commonly applied behind control panels, cabinet walls or on motor mounts to cut vibration transmission.
• Useful when worn, detached or hardened factory pads allow increased noise.

• One insul-sound deadening pad

• Disconnect power before servicing an appliance to avoid shock or injury.
• Clean and dry mounting surface; press pad firmly to ensure adhesive contact.
• Replace only in the original location; do not cover vents or moving parts.
• If adhesive is weak, use OEM-approved adhesive; avoid solvents that may damage finishes.
