Parts for Maytag MSF25D4MDE01: 10 - Unit Parts

This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.

The Compressor Start Device is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for starting the compressor, which is crucial for the refrigeration cycle. The start device provides the necessary electrical current to initiate the compressor's operation, ensuring that the refrigerator maintains the proper cooling temperature.

You should replace the compressor start device if it becomes faulty. Causes of a bad start device can include electrical failures, wear and tear from regular use, or damage from power surges. A malfunctioning start device can prevent the compressor from starting, leading to cooling issues in the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad compressor start device include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly or at all
• The compressor not running or making a clicking sound as it tries to start
• Unusual noises coming from the compressor area
• The refrigerator 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 Run Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is an electronic component that assists in powering the refrigerator's compressor motor. The capacitor functions to provide an electrical boost needed to start the compressor running smoothly during each cooling cycle.

Causes of a bad capacitor can include deterioration of dielectric material over many years of operation or accidental moisture penetration into the capacitor case.

Symptoms of a bad capacitor include:

• The refrigerator compressor failing to turn on/refrigeration cycles not operating
• Loud humming noises coming from behind the refrigerator
• Erratic cooling performance and fluctuating interior temperatures

This OEM part is also compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Admiral, and Kenmore refrigerator models. 

This evaporator assembly circulates refrigerant and removes heat inside the freezer section to enable proper cooling and frost control. Replaces a damaged or corroded evaporator to restore normal temperature performance. What it does:

• Holds refrigerant and transfers heat so the freezer evaporates moisture and cools the compartment.
• Commonly used when frost builds up, freezer runs warm, or cooling is intermittent.
• Works with the sealed refrigeration system and defrost components to maintain proper cold temperatures.
• Designed to match OEM fit and function for compatible refrigerators.

• System evacuation, recharge, and leak testing are required after installation.
• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock and appliance damage.
• Inspect related defrost and sealing components during replacement.

The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. Located inside the machine compartment, it powers the condenser fan needed for heat exchange.

Causes involve standard motor degradation from prolonged usage. Excess dirt buildup over time may also hinder adequate blade movement.

Symptoms of a faulty condenser fan motor include:

• Inability to adequately cool interior compartments
• The refrigerator runs continuously with the exterior surface staying hot
• Grinding or buzzing noises emanating from the refrigerator's rear
• Visible condenser fan blades stalled or rotating slowly

This is a genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement this part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, and some Kenmore models.

The Evaporator Drip Tray is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators.

Causes of a bad drip tray can include cracks developing in the plastic over time. Mineral deposits may also accumulate, reducing the tray's drainage functionality.

Symptoms of a bad Evaporator Drip Tray include:

• Water leaks or overflow detected inside the freezer base
• Potential freezing or short circuits from excess pooled moisture
• Inability to effectively direct condensate away from coils
• Promotes conditions for mold or odor development

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid and some Kenmore models.

This condenser fan motor bracket secures the condenser fan motor to the appliance chassis, keeping the cooling fan stable so it can move air across the condenser for proper cooling performance and prevent wobble or contact. What it does:

• Holds the condenser fan motor in the correct position so the fan blades clear surrounding components.
• Stabilizes the motor to reduce vibration and noise caused by a loose or damaged mount.
• Helps maintain proper condenser airflow to avoid overheating or reduced cooling.
• Can be replaced when the original bracket is bent, cracked, or broken and no longer supports the motor.

• Disconnect power before starting any repair to avoid electric shock.
• Verify motor and fan assembly alignment when reinstalling the bracket; secure mounting hardware snugly but do not overtighten.
• Inspect related fasteners and fan components for wear and replace as needed.

The Heater is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part prevents frost buildup by heating the evaporator coils during the defrost cycle. This part ensures that air flows freely over the coils, improving the efficiency of the cooling system and maintaining the refrigerator at the optimal temperature. 

Causes of a bad heater can include electrical failures, such as a blown fuse or a faulty wiring connection, or physical damage to the heater element itself.  

Symptoms of a bad Heater include:

• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• The refrigerator and freezer not maintaining the desired temperatures
• Increased energy consumption as the refrigerator works harder to cool
• Unusual noises from the refrigerator as the fan hits frost buildup

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