This limit switch is a temperature safety device that opens the circuit if heat rises too high. Replacing a weak or failed switch restores proper overheat protection and can resolve nuisance shutdowns or no-heat conditions due to an open safety. What it does:

• Monitors temperature at its mounting location
• Opens the electrical circuit at a preset over-temperature to stop heating or operation
• Helps protect internal components and wiring from heat damage
• Common symptoms include: won't heat, shuts off during use, or no power after an overheat event

• 1 limit switch

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before servicing
• Access the switch, note wire positions, and transfer wires one at a time
• Mount the switch flat and firmly against the original sensing surface or bracket
• After replacement, check for root causes of overheating (blocked airflow, failed fan, dirty filters, shorted element)

The Ice Chute Door is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. It provides access to the dedicated ice and water storage and dispensing compartment located on the refrigerator door.  

Causes of a faulty chute door can include normal wear from frequent use. Internal temperature fluctuations may cause durability issues over several years.

Symptoms of problems include:

• Failure to fully close or form a tight seal  
• Difficulty dispensing ice or water due to door misalignment
• Premature cooling loss from unsealed opening
• Physical damage preventing proper closing

This OEM door is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators.

Returns ice chute door to closed position after dispensing. Replace if door stays open, doesn't seal, or ice dispenser leaks cold air. Easy DIY fix.

• Helps prevent looseness, vibration, and rattling of panels or brackets
• Replace if the head is stripped, threads are worn, or the screw is missing
