Parts for Crosley CFD28WIS3: Ice Maker Parts

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.

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire upright freezers. It is a temperature-sensing device that monitors coil temperatures, triggering the automatic defrost cycle to safely melt frost buildup obstructing airflow. Located near refrigerator coils, the defrost thermostat optimizes energy-efficient defrosting.

Causes often relate to regular exposure to fluctuating interior freezer temperatures over extended periods. Impacts compromising calibration can also force early replacement.

Symptoms involve:

• Excessive ice accumulation hinders air circulation and cooling power
• The inability of the unit to maintain a frost-free interior environment
• Higher utility costs from the refrigerator constantly fight accumulation

This Frigidaire OEM replacement part fits upright models by Electrolux, Gibson, and some Kenmore models.

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 refrigerator housing is the molded support used to mount and protect its associated components inside the appliance. Replacing a damaged housing restores a secure fit and proper alignment so parts stay in place and function correctly.

• Provides structural support and mounting points for the related controls/components
• Helps route air and/or wiring as designed by the manufacturer
• Restores proper alignment to reduce rattles, rubbing, or interference
• Symptoms can include cracked plastic, broken tabs, loose or sagging assemblies, or components that won't stay secured

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water as needed if working near dispenser/ice components
• Transfer sensors, wiring, controls, and hardware from the original housing unless new parts are supplied
• Reuse original screws/clips; avoid overtightening to prevent cracking
• Verify harness connections and clearances before restoring power and water

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.
