Parts for Crosley CFD28WIQSA: Ice Maker Parts

This water inlet tube routes water from the inlet valve to the ice maker and dispenser, restoring proper water flow and helping prevent leaks. Use when the original tube is cracked, split, or blocking water delivery. What it does:

• Directs water from the refrigerator inlet valve to the ice maker and dispenser assembly.
• Restores normal water flow if the original tube is crushed, cracked, or blocked.
• Helps stop leaks associated with damaged or deteriorated inlet tubing.
• Common symptoms: no water to ice maker or dispenser, slow dispenser flow, or visible leaking beneath the fridge.

• Disconnect electrical power and shut off the household water supply before starting.
• Handle tubing carefully and avoid sharp bends or kinks when routing.
• Check and reuse or replace any associated fittings, clips, or seals as needed for a secure, leak-free connection.

The Ice Maker Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is responsible for automatically producing batches of ice through a process of freezing water into cube form. The ice maker works in conjunction with the refrigerator's freezer compartment and water supply line to perform its ice production function. 

Symptoms of a faulty ice maker include:

• Failure to produce ice cubes
• Oddly shaped, sparse, or chunky ice output
• Leaks or water pools in the freezer 
• Strange noises coming from the ice maker area
• Error codes shown regarding ice maker performance

Causes of a bad ice maker assembly can include issues with components like the mold heater, water valve, or agitator that are vital to the freezing process. Improper refrigeration temperatures or clogs preventing water flow can also negatively impact ice production.

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.
 

This defrost thermostat controls power to the defrost heater by sensing the evaporator's temperature. Replacing a failed thermostat helps stop heavy frost build-up and supports consistent cooling and airflow in your refrigerator and freezer.

• Monitors evaporator coil temperature during the defrost cycle
• Opens to shut off the defrost heater at a safe temperature; closes again when cold to allow the next defrost
• Failure symptoms can include heavy frost/ice on the back wall or evaporator
• May lead to reduced airflow, poor cooling, or the fresh food section warming after several days

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access by removing the freezer's rear panel to reach the evaporator area; defrost any heavy ice to avoid damage
• Position the thermostat in the same spot on the evaporator tubing; ensure firm contact and route wiring as originally secured, away from sharp edges and the heater
• Reassemble panels, restore power, and observe for proper defrosting over the next cycles

The Defrost Heater is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is an electric heating element located within the back wall and along the evaporator coil compartment. The heater defrost works to melt any accumulated frost or ice during refrigeration defrost cycles. 

Causes of a bad defrost heater include failure of the heating coil or wiring over time due to regular use. Moisture exposure can also degrade insulation and connections.

Symptoms of a bad defrost heater include: 

• Ice buildup inside the refrigerator that does not melt   
• Inability to maintain proper cooling temperatures
• Frost accumulating externally on refrigerator coils
• Unusual smells emanating from within the appliance 

This OEM Frigidaire replacement defrost heater restores automatic defrost capabilities. Compatible with some Electrolux, Roper, and Kenmore models as well, regular replacements prevent defrost issues.

This replacement cover restores the exterior housing appearance and protection for the appliance where the original cover is damaged or worn. It helps keep internal components shielded from dirt and debris and maintains a finished look. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, chipped, or missing housing cover to protect internal parts
• Helps prevent dust and spills from reaching sensitive components behind the cover
• Restores a clean, finished appearance to the appliance front or panel area
• Compatible with the appliance's original mounting points when the correct PN is used

• Remove power to the appliance before beginning any work to avoid electrical shock
• Use appropriate screwdrivers or trim tools to remove retainers without damaging surrounding trim
• Handle part carefully to avoid scratching the finish; align mounting tabs before tightening fasteners

The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is designed to manage the flow of water to the ice maker and water dispenser. This solenoid-operated valve responds to commands from the refrigerator's electronic control, opening to allow water in and closing to stop the flow, ensuring proper operation of both ice production and water dispensing functions.

Symptoms of a bad Water Inlet Valve include:

• No water being dispensed or ice being made
• Leaking water at the back or bottom of the refrigerator
• An unusually noisy operation when the valve is activated

Causes of a bad water inlet valve can include mineral buildup, which may obstruct the flow of water, mechanical failure of the solenoids, or wear and tear that leads to leaks or failure to open/close properly.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

This cover shields the control knob housing, protecting internal switch components and giving the control panel a finished look. Replacing a damaged cover helps keep debris out and maintains proper knob alignment and appearance.

• Protects the control area from dust, moisture, and accidental contact
• Helps maintain smooth knob operation and alignment
• Common failure signs: cracked or missing cover, loose knob feel, exposed control components
• Restores a clean, finished look to the control panel

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Pull off the knob, then release any tabs or screws retaining the cover
• Note orientation before removal; seat the new cover fully
• Reinstall knob and test for proper fit and operation
