Parts for Kitchenaid KSC23C8EYB02: 08 - Dispenser Front Parts

The Whirlpool EveryDrop Ice and Refrigerator Water Filter 1 is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This filter works to remove small particles from water to ensure clean, great-tasting ice and drinking water directly from the refrigerator door.  Measuring approximately 2.50 x 2.50 x 8.69 inches, this filter is easy to install. 

For optimal performance, we recommend replacing the filter every six months. The filter material is made from coconut carbon block, which has a micron rating of 0.5 and a flow rate of 0.5 gpm. The filter is designed to operate at a maximum pressure of 125 psi and an operating temperature of 38-100°.

Symptoms of a filter needing replacement include:

• Gradual decline in water/ice quality over time exhibiting muddy appearance or odd tastes
• Filter life indicator appears showing it is time for a new one 

Causes stem from normal usage over the stated capacity of the original filter. Allowing one to expire could produce unhealthy water.

This OEM replacement part is compatible with select Maytag, Jenn-Air, and Amana models as well.

This dispenser grille is the removable tray beneath your refrigerator's ice and water dispenser. It catches drips and small spills to help keep the area clean and protect the door finish and surrounding floor. What it does:

• Collects water and ice drips at the dispenser to reduce runoff and staining
• Provides a stable surface for cups while dispensing
• Restores appearance and function when the original grille is cracked, warped, stained, or missing
• Common symptoms: pooling water on the door, loose or ill-fitting tray, visible damage

• One dispenser grille

• Clean the recess; align the tabs and press the new grille firmly into place
• Ensure the grille sits level and doesn't interfere with dispenser paddles

This ice door seals the dispenser chute between uses, keeping warm air and moisture out of the ice compartment. Replacing a worn flapper restores a tight seal, reduces frost and clumping, and improves dispenser performance.

• Opens for ice dispensing and closes to seal the chute between uses
• Helps maintain a barrier against warm air and humidity entering the ice compartment
• Reduces frost/condensation at the dispenser outlet
• Typical failure signs: frost or dripping at the dispenser, clumped or melting ice, or a flapper that won't close/seal

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing
• Access is typically through the dispenser area; remove trim/control panel as directed for your model
• Note orientation; transfer any springs/pivots as designed and ensure the seal sits flat
• After installation, test dispense and confirm smooth motion and a snug seal

This refrigerator ice guide channels cubes and crushed ice along the intended path so they land in your bin or glass. When the guide is damaged or missing, ice can scatter, jam, or miss the dispenser opening. What it does

• Helps keep ice flowing smoothly and reduces spills at the opening
• Restores proper aim for cubed and crushed ice
• Typical symptoms: ice spraying or missing the glass, frequent jams, or visible damage to the guide

• 1 ice guide

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the ice bin and access the guide per your model's design
• Transfer and reuse existing mounting screws or clips, if applicable
• Verify alignment, then test both cubed and crushed dispensing
