• Threads onto compatible studs/bolts to lock assemblies in place
• Resists vibration-related loosening for more reliable operation
• Commonly used on appliance control or mechanical linkages
• Small replacement part that restores secure fastening where the original nut is damaged or missing

• One locking nut

• Turn off and unplug the appliance before accessing internal components
• Match nut thread size and type to the stud before installation
• Use appropriate tools and torque; avoid overtightening which can strip threads

This end cap fits on the front of the ice-bin auger. It secures the auger shaft and blade stack inside the ice container so cubes or crushed ice dispense smoothly and the auger stays properly aligned.

• Secures the front of the auger and blades in the ice bucket
• Maintains auger alignment with the drive for reliable ice dispensing
• Helps prevent jams and rattling in the ice container
• Common symptoms of a failed cap: weak/no ice dispense, loose/wobbly auger, grinding or rattling noises, visible cracks or a missing cap

• Disconnect power and remove the ice bin before servicing
• Note the order of blades, spacers, and washers; take a photo for reassembly
• Replace the cap and reassemble in the original order using existing hardware
• Ensure the bin is fully seated and test dispense after restoring power

• Provides the correct fastener for locations identified in your model's parts diagram
• Helps prevent looseness, vibration, and rattling of panels or brackets
• Replace if the head is stripped, threads are worn, or the screw is missing
• Symptoms can include loose parts, gaps, or noises from movement

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off water if working near the ice maker or dispenser
• Match length and type to the original; follow your model's parts diagram for placement
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without over-torquing, especially into plastic
• Keep track of screw positions; do not mix different screw lengths or styles

The ice auger and crusher blade crush and shave the ice that dispenses on a refrigerator. This part can be used to repair a refrigerator that is no longer dispensing ice. Sometimes when the ice dispenser malfunctions and makes a loud noise but doesn't dispense cubed or shaved ice, the problem is with the auger and crusher blade. Perform a visual inspection of the auger and crusher blade to ensure no external damage is done to the components.Disconnect the refrigerator from its power source before starting this repair. Open the freezer door to access the ice bucket and dispenser area. The bucket is held in place by fastening clips that can be pushed to remove the bucket. Lay the bucket flat on its back with the auger and blade facing upwards. Remove the old auger and crusher blade by removing the four hex screws. Remove the helix end-cap from the old auger system and replace it with the new one. Repeat these steps in reverse to install the new component.This Whirlpool ice auger and crusher is a genuine OEM product sourced directly from Whirlpool. The part listed is only available individually and is not included with any other parts or original appliances. This part is compatible with Whirlpool, Amana, Kenmore, and Maytag appliances.
