Parts for Kitchenaid KBSD508ESS00: 14 - Upper Unit Parts

The Invrtr-box is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for housing and protecting the electrical components that regulate cooling performance and energy efficiency. 

Causes of a bad Invrtr-box can include failure or malfunction of the electrical components inside due to normal wear and tear over time, or exposure to humidity, moisture, or other environmental factors inside the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad Invrtr-box include:

• Inconsistent temperatures in the refrigerator and freezer sections 
• The refrigerator not cooling properly or intermittently not running
• Strange smells coming from the electrical components
•  Error codes displayed on the control panel

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

This compressor mounting grommet kit replaces worn or damaged rubber mounts that secure the compressor and reduce vibration. Restoring proper mounts helps cut down on compressor noise and prevents movement-related wear. What it does:

• Cushions and isolates the compressor to reduce vibration and rattling noise
• Keeps the compressor secured to its mounting bracket during operation
• Helps prevent stress and wear on mounting hardware and tubing
• Addresses symptoms like excessive vibration, banging, or unusual compressor noise

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repairs
• Support the compressor while removing and installing mounts to prevent strain or shifting
• Use appropriate hand tools and avoid over-tightening fasteners that can compress or damage grommets

This electronic control board is the refrigerator's central control module, coordinating cooling and defrost functions for stable temperatures. Replacing a failing board helps restore proper operation of the compressor, fans, and related circuits.

• Helps prevent excessive compressor runtime and temperature rise in the cabinet
• Commonly replaced when the coil is bent, punctured, clogged, or leaking

• One condenser coil assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Handle fins and tubing carefully; sharp edges and refrigerant lines can be present
• May require removal of grill/panels and basic hand tools; refer to factory service instructions

This electronic control board manages the appliance's user interface and core cycle functions so your unit responds correctly to selections and timing. It restores control logic and cycle sequencing for reliable operation. What it does:

• Routes user commands from the console to actuators, valves, and motors
• Manages cycle timing, display indicators, and status feedback
• Helps stop unresponsive panels, incorrect cycle behavior, or failure to start when the control has failed
• Can clear intermittent faults caused by a damaged or non-responsive control

• One electronic control board

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Handle the board carefully and avoid touching circuit traces or components
• Reinstall with correct mounting and connector engagement; loose connections can cause faults

The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool brand bottom-mount refrigerators. This motor powers the condenser fan which dissipates heat from the refrigeration system coils, maintaining cool interior temperatures.

Causes of failure include normal bearing wear from continuous rotations, or buildup obstructing free blade movement. 

Symptoms of a faulty motor include:  

• Elevated interior temperatures and frost propagation issues   
• Extended run times and higher energy consumption
• Grinding or buzzing noises emanating from the refrigeration system area

This Whirlpool replacement restores efficient heat removal and preserves food freshness. Compatible with KitchenAid, Maytag, and some Kenmore models too, it prevents future repair bills.
 

This condenser fan blade mounts to the fan motor and pulls air across the condenser coil and compressor. Replacing a cracked or warped blade restores airflow so your refrigerator cools efficiently and the compressor runs at a safe temperature.

• Circulates air through the condenser coil and over the compressor to remove heat
• Helps maintain cooling performance and stable system pressures
• Common symptoms: weak or no airflow at the rear/base, rattling or scraping noises, wobble/vibration, visible cracks or missing fins, warmer-than-normal compartments or hot cabinet sides
• Works with the condenser fan motor and shroud; typically replaced when the hub is stripped or the blade is damaged

• Disconnect power and pull the refrigerator out; remove the rear access cover near the compressor
• Note blade orientation and depth on the motor shaft before removal
• Pull the old blade straight off; press the new blade onto the shaft until fully seated and ensure it spins freely with proper shroud clearance
• Reinstall the cover, restore power, and verify strong, quiet airflow

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure appliance panels and small components. It provides a correct-fit fastener to restore secure attachment and eliminate rattles or loose parts. What it does:

• Restores proper alignment when a worn or missing screw causes loose parts or noise
• Works as a direct-replacement fastener where the OEM screw specification is required

• One replacement screw

• Use the correct driver bit to avoid stripping the head; do not overtighten
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety guidelines when accessing internal components
• If the original mounting hole or threads are damaged, repair or replace the mounting hardware before reinstalling

This electronic power supply board converts incoming AC power to the low-voltage DC used by the refrigerator's controls and components. Replacing a failed board restores stable power to the UI, fans, lights, and cooling functions.

• Converts line voltage to regulated low-voltage DC for control electronics
• Distributes power to the main control, display, sensors, fans, and valve/relay circuits
• Common signs include a blank or non-responsive control panel, no interior lights or dispenser, intermittent power/clicking, or the unit not running even though the outlet has power
• Failures may follow electrical surges or shorted loads

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug before servicing; capacitors may hold a charge
• Use ESD protection and handle the board by its edges
• Photograph/label all connectors; transfer wires one by one and ensure full seating
• Mount securely and inspect for pinched/shorted wires before restoring power

This replacement water fill tube routes water to the appliance's dispenser/ice system so you get proper fill and reduced leaks. It restores reliable water delivery when the original tube is cracked or clogged. What it does:

• Directs water from the supply to the dispenser or ice/water mechanism
• Prevents leaks when intact and properly secured
• Helps ensure consistent water flow for ice makers and dispensers
• Worn or damaged tubes can cause pooling, low water delivery, or intermittent filling

• One replacement water fill tube

• Turn off the appliance power and water supply before starting work
• Inspect fittings and seals; replace clamps or gaskets if worn
• Slide tube into place and secure with the original or new clamps for a leak-free connection

This Power Disconnect Switch is the refrigerator's on/off service switch. It interrupts incoming power when actuated, allowing safe servicing or resetting of the unit without unplugging it and helping prevent unintended operation when access panels are open. What it does:

• Interrupts electrical power to the unit when switched off or tripped
• Provides a dedicated service disconnect for safe maintenance and resets
• Common symptoms: no power, intermittent shutdowns, or the unit won't stay on unless the switch is held/positioned
• Visual clues: broken actuator or heat-discolored/loose terminals

• Power disconnect switch only

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the switch location; on many built-in units it's behind the top grille or control panel
• Move wires one at a time to the new switch to maintain correct orientation
• Restore power and verify the switch cleanly turns the unit on and off

This rubber grommet provides a tidy, protective seal where hoses, wires, or shafts pass through the appliance cabinet—helping prevent chafing, reduce vibration noise, and maintain proper sealing around openings. What it does:

• Cushions and protects wiring or hoses from rubbing against metal edges
