218515401 - Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Kickplate Clip Set, 2/Pack
218515401 – Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Kickplate Clip Set, 2/Pack
The 218515401 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Kickplate Clip Set includes two original equipment clips designed to secure the refrigerator kickplate, toe grille, or grille assembly at the bottom of compatible refrigerators. This Genuine OEM Frigidaire part is designed for select Frigidaire and related-brand refrigerator applications and is supplied by Appliance Kingdom, a Canadian appliance parts retailer based in Edmonton, Alberta. Appliance Kingdom provides fast, reliable shipping across Canada.
A damaged, broken, loose, or missing kickplate clip can prevent the lower grille from staying securely in position. Replacing the missing or damaged clips with the correct OEM components helps restore a secure fit and proper alignment of the refrigerator kickplate.
Function & Importance
The 218515401 clip secures the refrigerator's lower kickplate or toe grille to the appliance cabinet. The kickplate helps provide a finished appearance while covering and protecting components located near the bottom of the refrigerator.
This set contains two clips, providing the fastening components needed for applications that use this two-piece clip arrangement. Using the correct OEM clip is important because differences in clip dimensions, shape, and mounting design can prevent the kickplate from fitting securely.
A worn or broken clip can allow the kickplate to become loose, detach from the refrigerator, or sit incorrectly against the cabinet.
Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement
The 218515401 kickplate clip set may be needed when you notice:
- Refrigerator kickplate or toe grille will not stay attached
- Lower grille is loose or keeps popping out
- Kickplate is misaligned or does not sit flush
- One or more retaining clips are broken or missing
- Grille becomes loose after cleaning or servicing
- Lower refrigerator grille rattles or moves when touched
AMRE Supply specifically identifies “kickplate won't stay on” as a potential repair situation for this part. Repair Clinic also identifies 218515401 as a genuine OEM clip used to securely fasten refrigerator components.
Will Replacing This Part Fix My Problem?
If the problem is caused by a broken, missing, or damaged kickplate retaining clip, replacing the clip set should restore the proper attachment of the kickplate.
If the kickplate itself is cracked, warped, or damaged, replacing the clips alone may not resolve the issue. Check both the grille and its mounting points before ordering.
