Common failure areas on this model

The confirmed parts above group into a handful of failure areas. Here is what each points to and how to check it before you order anything.

General hardware and mounting parts

Symptom: A small mechanical or mounting part has failed, cracked, or gone missing.

Check: Compare the physical shape and mounting points to the original piece, and confirm the exact part number against your model plate before ordering.

Parts in this group on 79579292901: MJB61990601 (Refrigerator Door Stopper), 4681JK1004A (Refrigerator Air Damper Motor), AJU55759301 (Refrigerator Water Valve), 5851JA2007E (Refrigerator Filter Dryer), 6500JK1003A (Refrigerator Sensor).

Cooling system (compressor, condenser, evaporator)

Symptom: The refrigerator or freezer runs warm, the compressor cycles on and off rapidly, or frost builds up heavily inside.

Check: Listen for the compressor and condenser fan actually running, feel the condenser coils for heat, and check the evaporator coil for an ice layer that blocks airflow.

Parts in this group on 79579292901: 6750C0005P (Refrigerator Compressor Overload Protector), TCA33414101 (Refrigerator Compressor).

Water inlet and drainage

Symptom: The icemaker or dispenser isn't getting water, or a supply-line fitting is leaking.

Check: Check that the water inlet valve is receiving supply pressure and that its screen filter isn't clogged, and inspect the fill tube and fittings for a leak or freeze-up.

Parts in this group on 79579292901: 5220JA2009D (Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve).

Storage, trim and cosmetic hardware

Symptom: A cracked shelf, broken door bin, worn hinge, or missing trim piece -- cosmetic and storage wear rather than a functional breakdown.

Check: Match the physical dimensions and mounting tabs of the old part before ordering; these pieces are often model-specific even between visually similar models.

Before you buy

Match 79579292901 exactly against the model and serial plate on the appliance itself before ordering anything — a single mismatched character can point to a different production run with different parts. Then check the part number printed or stamped on the part you are replacing against the part numbers in the table above; the printed number is the most reliable way to confirm fitment when a model has gone through multiple production runs. RepairKitHub does not sell parts directly — every part link above routes to an Amazon search for that part number so you can compare current listings and sellers yourself.

How to confirm this is your model

On most refrigerators, the model and serial plate sits inside on a side wall or behind the bottom grille. Match every character exactly, including letters and dashes at the end — appliance model numbers often have similar prefixes but different suffixes for different production runs.
