Description

This diffuser meters cold air from the freezer into the fresh food compartment, helping maintain even, accurate temperatures. Replacing a faulty diffuser restores proper airflow, reduces temperature swings, and helps prevent warm spots or freezing.

• Regulates and directs airflow between compartments to help keep set temperatures
• Opens/closes the air passage to prevent over-cooling or under-cooling
• Helps reduce frost or ice near vents caused by constant airflow
• Common symptoms of a failed diffuser: fresh food section warm while freezer is cold, temperature fluctuations, clicking/buzzing from the vent area, frost or ice around the diffuser outlet

What's included: 1 diffuser assembly Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove shelves/air tower to access the diffuser; handle foam seals carefully to prevent air leaks
• Transfer any sensor, bracket, or seal from the original part if your model uses them
• After installation, restore power and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize
