Description
This right-side interior shield restores the refrigerator's internal liner protection and airflow channeling for proper cooling and component protection. It replaces a cracked, warped, or missing side shield to help keep food and parts safe. What it does:
- Covers and protects the refrigerator's right interior cavity from direct contact with wiring, tubing, and insulation.
- Helps direct airflow inside the cabinet for consistent cooling and defrost performance.
- Prevents food or debris from entering service areas and reduces risk of component damage.
- Common symptoms that indicate replacement: visible cracks or breaks, loose or missing shield, unusual air leaks, or interior rattling.
What's included: One right side shield. Install notes:
- Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
- Removal typically requires taking out shelves and trim to access mounting screws or clips.
- Use proper trim tools to disengage retaining clips; avoid prying on thin plastic to prevent further damage.
- If clips or fasteners are damaged, replace them to ensure a secure fit.
