The Power Cord is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It transmits electrical current from the wall outlet directly to the internal refrigerator components, allowing them to operate properly. As the critical link supplying energy, this power cord plays an essential role in refrigerator performance. Causes can involve normal wear over many years, accidental punctures, harsh chemicals, or excessive bending/pulling that strains and weakens internal wiring. Rodent damage is another potential issue. Symptoms of a bad power cord include: The refrigerator not powering on when plugged in Flickering lights or intermittent operation Warm temperatures inside the fridge compartment Evidence of cord damage like cracks, blisters, or exposed wires This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.241516904 (AP6997271) replaces 241516901, 7241516901.
