Customer Questions and Answers for Ice Bucket Housing by Whirlpool

This replacement ice bucket housing encloses and supports the freezer's ice storage bin at the dispenser. A damaged housing can cause bin wobble or misalignment—replacing it restores a secure fit, smoother dispensing, and helps reduce stray ice and frost.

• Holds and aligns the ice bin for proper engagement with the dispenser mechanism
• Guides ice toward the chute and helps contain cubes and shavings
• Helps limit warm-air leaks around the bin to reduce frost and clumping
• Typical symptoms: bin won't seat or is wobbly, poor or no ice dispensing, ice spilling inside freezer, visible cracks in the enclosure

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off water before servicing
• Remove the ice bin; take out any screws or clips securing the housing
• Transfer any reusable brackets or screws from the old housing to the new one
• Reinstall the housing level and secure; seat the bin fully, restore power, and test dispensing
