4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18019983
Manufacturer Part Number: WP2216112

The Air Diffuser is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It regulates the flow of cold air from the freezer compartment to the refrigerator compartment, ensuring proper temperature control and even cooling throughout the fridge.

Over time, the diffuser can fail due to mechanical issues, obstruction by ice or debris, or wear on the moving parts. This can result in uneven cooling, leading to spoiled food and inefficient operation.

Symptoms of a bad air diffuser include:

  • Inconsistent temperatures in the refrigerator
  • Frost buildup in the freezer
  • Warm spots in the refrigerator compartment
  • The refrigerator running constantly or not cooling adequately

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Air Diffuser (Part Number: OEM18019983)

Answer

Hello Eugene, With the freezer door closed, you should feel cold air blowing in from the top left of the fresh food compartment. This signifies that the air diffuser WP2216112 is open. The diffuser door can be checked by unplugging the refrigerator and putting your head in the fresh food compartment. Have someone plug the refrigerator back in. You should hear the diffuser motor energize at this point. If not, replace the air diffuser. If you hear it activate but it makes a "clicking" sound, replace it because this signifies that the damper door is broken. A frost accumulation can cause this. IF frost is found in the damper, check the door seals for any possible air leaks. This includes the ice door.
