- Drives the ice auger/crusher to feed ice from the bucket through the dispenser chute
- Helps deliver cubes or crushed ice, depending on the control selection
- Common symptoms: no ice dispensing, auger not turning, loud humming or grinding, intermittent or weak dispensing
- Located in the freezer-door dispenser assembly and engages the ice bucket coupler
What's included: One dispenser crusher motor. Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
- Remove the ice bucket and dispenser trim/panel to access the motor; note wire orientation and fasteners
- Transfer any mounting hardware or coupler from the old motor
- Reassemble, restore power, and test ice dispensing
