Compatibility Notes
-
Confirm the support on your refrigerator is identified by 218758602 (or equivalent) and that the mounting tabs align with your door bin/retainer bar style.
-
Some retainer supports differ based on the side of the door (left vs right) or the shelf height/position—checking orientation is recommended.
-
During installation, remove door shelf contents and retainers to avoid damage to the new support or surrounding door liner.
-
Because door shelf issues may also stem from damaged retainer bars or shelf bins themselves, we recommend you check with your maintenance technician prior to ordering to ensure this support is the correct remedy and to avoid unnecessary returns.
