Description
The Feeler Arm is an OEM component for GE side-by-side refrigerators with an automatic icemaker function. Integrated with the icemaker module, it senses ice level volume for regulating harvest cycles. Consistent ice production relies on a responsive feeler arm mechanism.
Causes of a defective arm involve worn or warped plastic pivot points reducing sensitivity over repeated compression cycles, mineral buildup obscuring responsiveness to ice levels, or damaged wiring inhibiting proper signals to control systems.
Symptoms include:
- Irregular ice production capacity due to improper harvest initiation
- Slowed water/energy efficiency from excessive manufacturing cycles
- Potential flooding in the bin without drainage
Replacing with this genuine GE feeler arm ensures precise ice level reading and optimized automatic harvesting. Compatible replacements suit Hotpoint, RCA, or Kenmore models seeking uninterrupted whole-home ice provision through resilient component engineering.
