Kitchen Aid KSSP42FB05 -- meat pan support?


Recommended Posts

I'm sure I know the answer to this, but...

Emptied out the fridge so it can be moved while the floors are repaired and refinished.  Along with unsightly mold around and under the shelf trim that has been tucked nicely out of sight, I spotted the broken support for the meat drawer.  The duct-tape repair has actually held for lo! these many years, but perhaps it's time for more.

Alas!  The part (WPL 2006524) has been discontinued and is not, as far as I can tell, available anywhere.  Is there any hard-to-find parts depot I might approach?  Or perhaps you can offer a suitable repair method.

Why are the floors being refinished?  Something in the defrost cycle has been drip-drip-dripping on the floor for many years, causing unsightly warping of the floorboards under the fridge (who cares?) and rotting of the subfloor (I do!).  Most likely the ol' frozen condensate drain, to which the requisite several inches of #12 copper wire have been applied.

On the bottom right of the apd home page they have a box labled apd part finder. It checks multiple distributors across North America and sometimes pulls up Nla or hard to find parts. Of corse it does not have your part but it may help you out in the future.

Thanks -- I've bookmarked that page.

Meanwhile, Gorilla Super Glue Gel works well.  For good measure I used a little Gorilla Tape (in white) to strengthen the joints.  Since the old duct tape repair held for years, I expect this one to last at least as long as the fridge.
