The Spring is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a small but important internal part that applies pressure to dispense cubed or crushed ice from the refrigerator door. The spring is located within the ice dispenser mechanism and works with a lever to push ice out through the dispenser chute upon activation. 

Causes of a bad spring can include wear and tear over time, putting undue pressure on the dispenser by jamming items into the chute, or damage from excessive force applied during dispensing. 

Symptoms of a bad spring include:

• Ice cubes or crushed ice becoming jammed or failing to dispense properly  
• The ice dispenser failing to push ice fully through the chute
• Excessive pressure needs to be applied to activate the dispenser
• Ice cubes are dispensed in irregular sizes or clumps rather than individual pieces

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

Mounting plate assembly secures your refrigerator to its support structure. Replace if bent, stripped, or missing to restore safe installation.

The Drive Shaft Seal is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It plays a role in preventing water from leaking out of the tub and onto the drive system. This seal ensures that the connection between the drive shaft and the washing machine tub remains watertight, protecting the mechanical components from water damage and corrosion.

Causes of a bad drive shaft seal include aging and deterioration of the material, excessive load sizes that strain the washer, and foreign objects caught between the seal and the shaft, which can lead to tears or breaks.

Symptoms of a bad Drive Shaft Seal include:

• Water leakage from the underside of the washing machine
• Unusual noises during the spin cycle
• A visible tear or damage to the seal itself
• Increased vibration and movement of the machine during operation

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Coupling is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool French door bottom-mount refrigerators equipped with an interior automatic icemaker. As an internal part, this coupling connects the auger motor to the ice mold assembly, allowing the motor to transmit rotational force during the ice harvest cycle.

Causes of a damaged coupling can include regular wear from years of exposure to changing temperatures inside the refrigerator. Mineral deposits accumulating on surfaces over many harvest seasons have the potential to deteriorate plastic material. Physical obstructions lodged in the icemaker mechanism could potentially bend or crack the coupling.  

Symptoms of a failing coupling involve:

• Inability of the auger motor to engage fully and eject frozen cubes
• Grinding or knocking sounds emitting from the icemaker
• Restricted or incomplete ice harvest that leaves cubes in molds

This OEM replacement is compatible with some Kenmore Elite French door models.
