Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
Door handle or panel feels loose or wobbles when opening/closing the fridge.
-
You discover missing or damaged screws at a mounting point (e.g., handle, panel, refrigerant housing).
-
The existing screw shows stripped head, rust/corrosion, or improper thread engagement.
-
During service or replacement of other components (like a door handle), original screws were discarded or damaged and the repair hardware metrics don't match the factory spec.
If any of these symptoms appear, consult your maintenance technician to verify the correct part number (218755401) and ensure no other structural damage exists before ordering.

Compatibility Notes
-
Although this is a small hardware part, correct thread-size, length and head style matter—using a wrong screw may damage the mounting surface or lead to loose/unreliable installation.
-
Before installation, ensure the mounting surface (door handle bracket, panel, liner) is in good condition; replacing the screw will not correct stripped or damaged threads.
-
If your appliance shows significant wear or damage around the screw mounting area (cracked liner, bent bracket), consult your technician to determine if additional repairs are necessary.
-
During installation, ensure power to the appliance is turned off if servicing near electrical components and components are supported properly to avoid damage.
