Function & Importance of the Part

The 12001957 support post is used with the refrigerator's crisper drawer shelf. It provides structural support for the crisper shelf or cover, helping keep the assembly correctly positioned inside the fresh-food compartment. Whirlpool's parts listing specifically describes 12001957 as a "Crisper drawer shelf support."

The support post is a small component, but a properly fitted support is important for maintaining the intended position and stability of the crisper shelf. A damaged or missing support can cause the shelf or crisper assembly to sit incorrectly or lack proper support.

Reliable Parts notes that this version of the part is supplied without the cap.

Using a genuine OEM component helps ensure the replacement matches the refrigerator's original parts design and dimensions.

Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

A damaged 12001957 crisper drawer support post may be associated with:

• Crisper shelf or cover is loose

• Crisper shelf is not properly supported

• Shelf or crisper assembly sits unevenly

• Support post is cracked or broken

• Support post is missing

• Crisper shelf does not remain securely positioned

• Visible damage to the shelf support

If the crisper shelf itself is intact but one of its support posts is damaged or missing, replacing the support post can restore the necessary support.

Will Replacing This Part Fix My Refrigerator?

If the problem is caused by a broken, damaged, or missing crisper drawer support post, replacing the support with the correct 12001957 part can restore proper support for the crisper shelf.

However, if the shelf, crisper cover, drawer, mounting area, or another supporting component is damaged, replacing only the post may not resolve the entire problem. Inspect the complete crisper assembly before ordering.
