The Ice Maker Wiring Harness is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part ensures electrical connectivity between the ice maker and the refrigerator's power supply, facilitating the various functions required for ice production. The wiring harness is key to the ice maker's operation, transmitting power and sensor signals that govern the ice-making cycle, including water filling, freezing, and ejecting ice into the bin.
Causes of a bad Ice Maker Wiring Harness can include physical damage from overextension or pinching, corrosion due to moisture exposure, and wear over time that leads to electrical failures.
Symptoms of a bad wiring harness include:
- Ice maker unit not operating or defective icemaking
- Malfunctions and error codes displayed relating to harness faults
