Product Description
The GENERAL ELECTRIC wr17x11662 is an OEM-style replacement crisper and vegetable cover shelf frame, designed without glass, for use in GE refrigerators. This frame supports the cover shelf assembly above the crisper drawer compartment, maintaining proper organization and airflow within the fresh food section. It is a direct replacement part intended to restore original drawer-bay function when the existing frame is cracked, broken, or missing. Licensed appliance technicians and experienced DIY repair personnel typically handle this installation. At approximately 3 pounds, the part ships ready for drop-in fitting.
This shelf frame fits within the crisper or vegetable drawer section of compatible GE refrigerators. It is a structural component that holds the cover panel position above the produce drawers. Installations typically occur during routine appliance maintenance or after physical damage to the existing frame. The glass insert is not included; if a replacement glass panel is also needed, that must be sourced separately under the appropriate part number.

Designed as an OEM-style replacement crisper and vegetable cover shelf frame for compatible GE refrigerator models. Consult the appliance model and serial number tag before ordering to confirm fitment for the specific unit being serviced.
Installation Notes
Disconnect or unplug the refrigerator from its power source before beginning any interior disassembly. Remove the crisper drawers to access the shelf frame mounting points. No special tools are typically required for this swap, but care should be taken not to force or flex the frame during removal or installation to avoid cracking adjacent components. Verify the replacement frame seats fully and level before reinstalling the drawers.
