Replaces the water supply tube that connects your household line to the ice maker and dispenser. Order when original tubing is cracked or leaking.

This rubber ice chute seal replaces the worn gasket that lines the refrigerator's ice dispenser chute, helping keep cold air in and moisture out for cleaner, drier ice and more reliable dispensing. What it does:

• Seals the ice chute to reduce warm air and moisture entry that can cause ice clumping or melting
• Helps prevent frost buildup and condensation around the dispenser opening
• Reduces the chance of ice bridging and sticking in the chute
• Restores a proper chute-to-housing fit for consistent dispensing

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Remove the ice bin and any obstructions before installing the seal
• Press the seal fully into the chute groove, ensuring correct orientation and an even fit
• Inspect surrounding plastic for cracks or damage; replace damaged parts before reassembly

Fix ice dispenser frost buildup and warm air leaks with a new ice chute hinge. Restores smooth door movement and seal. DIY-friendly, about 1 hour.

Ice chute extension for refrigerator ice dispensers. Replaces broken, cracked, or damaged chute extensions that allow frost buildup or ice jamming.

Size: 8-32 x 1/4 inch.

The Light Bulb is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part illuminates the water and ice dispenser area, providing visibility and ease of use, especially in low light conditions. 

Over time, the light bulb can fail due to normal wear and tear, electrical surges, or damage from vibrations and impacts. 

Symptoms of a bad light bulb include:

• The dispenser area not lighting up when activated
• Flickering or dim lighting
• The bulb failing to turn on consistently

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

This screw kit provides replacement fasteners used to secure appliance panels and internal components, helping restore proper fit and reduce vibration or rattling caused by missing or damaged screws. Ideal for maintenance and small repairs. What it does:

• Replaces missing, stripped, or damaged screws to restore secure panel and component attachment
• Helps eliminate rattling, vibration, and loose or misaligned panels
• Allows reassembly after part replacement or routine service
• Works with the appliance's original mounting points and threaded holes

• Always disconnect power and, if applicable, gas supply before servicing the appliance
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping screw heads
• Tighten screws snugly but avoid over-torquing which can strip threads or crack panels
• Keep small fasteners away from children and pets; work on a stable, well-lit surface

This limit switch monitors a set condition and opens or closes its contacts when that limit is reached. Replacing a failed switch restores proper safety cutoff and consistent operation of the appliance's heating or movement system. What it does:

• Senses a limit condition at its mounting point (such as temperature or travel/position, depending on model)
• Changes state at a defined threshold to protect components and wiring
• Interrupts power to heat or motor circuits, or signals a control to respond
• Common failure signs: no heat or shuts down early, runs continuously, won't start, or intermittent operation

• 1 limit switch

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Note wire positions; transfer connectors one at a time or take a photo for reference
• Reinstall in the original orientation so the actuator or sensing surface contacts the correct area
• Address root causes (blocked airflow, binding mechanisms, shorted components) to prevent repeat failures
