The Water Filter is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is designed to filter and purify the water for your refrigerator, ensuring clean and fresh drinking water and ice.

A bad refrigerator water filter can be caused by regular use and the buildup of contaminants over time. It may also become less effective if not replaced according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule.

Symptoms of a bad refrigerator water filter include:

• A decrease in water flow or water pressure.
• An unpleasant taste or odor in the water.
• The presence of particles or sediment in the water.
• Cloudy or discolored ice cubes.

If you notice any of these signs or if it has been more than six months since your last filter replacement, it's time to replace the refrigerator water filter with this genuine OEM part. This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
 

This ice mold and heater assembly forms the ice cubes and warms the mold just enough during harvest so cubes release cleanly into the bin. Replacing a worn mold/heater restores reliable ice production and prevents jams or incomplete ejection.

• Forms the ice cube cavities and provides gentle heat for smooth release
• Can help resolve slow or no ice production due to cubes sticking in the mold
• Address misshapen cubes, ice jams, or incomplete harvest cycles
• Common when the coating is worn, the heater is open, or cubes consistently hang up

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing the icemaker
• Remove the icemaker assembly to access and swap the mold/heater unit
• Transfer any required brackets or hardware from the old part if applicable
• After reassembly, restore power and allow several hours for normal ice making

Restore proper ice control with this replacement ice maker shut-off arm. It senses the ice level and toggles production—lower to make ice, raised to stop—helping prevent overflow and resolving issues caused by a missing, bent, or broken arm.

• Controls the ice maker's on/off function through the internal shut-off switch
• Raises to stop ice production when the bin is full; lowers to allow ice making
• Common symptoms of a failed arm: keeps making ice/overfilling, won't make ice if stuck "off," or arm won't stay in position
• Direct replacement for a loose, deformed, or missing bail arm

• Unplug the refrigerator and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice bin; removing the ice maker may improve access
• Note spring/anchor hole positions and install the arm in the same orientation without bending it
• After reassembly, the arm moves freely and starts/stops the ice maker when lowered/raised

This Arm Ejector secures and positions the dishwasher spray arm so it spins properly and distributes water for effective cleaning. Replacing a worn or broken ejector restores spray-arm stability and helps prevent uneven washing. What it does:

• Holds the spray arm in the correct position so it can rotate freely
• Prevents spray arm wobble, scraping, or falling off during cycles
• Helps maintain proper water distribution for consistent cleaning
• Can resolve symptoms like noisy spray arm movement or uneven wash performance

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before starting any repair
• Remove the lower spray arm and mounting cup as shown in your model's parts diagram to access the ejector
• Inspect surrounding components for wear when replacing the ejector
• Use only the exact replacement part number to ensure proper fit and function

This comb-shaped insert mounts at the front of the modular ice maker. It strips freshly ejected cubes from the rake and directs them into the bin to help prevent jams and cube hang-ups for consistent ice harvests.

• Guides cubes off the ejector fingers and into the bin
• Helps prevent cubes from re-entering the mold, bridging, or jamming
• Replaces a cracked, warped, or missing stripper to restore proper harvest path
• Typical symptoms: cubes stuck on the ejector, repeated jams, ice spilling or clumping

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator and turn off the ice maker before servicing
• Remove the ice maker front cover; release locking tabs or screws to remove the old stripper
• Position the new stripper over the ejector fingers; seat fully without forcing the rake
• Reinstall cover/ice maker, restore power, and allow a full cycle to verify operation

This small metal mounting clip secures the thermal fuse in place to maintain proper thermal contact and stable wiring. It helps keep the fuse positioned so the appliance can monitor temperature reliably and operate safely. What it does:

• Secures the thermal fuse to the appliance housing or duct to prevent movement
• Keeps the fuse in correct contact with temperature-sensing surfaces
• Helps prevent intermittent heating or thermal-sensor misreads caused by a loose fuse
• Useful when replacing a damaged or missing fuse retainer during fuse service

• One thermal fuse mounting clip

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Remove access panels per your model's service instructions to reach the fuse location
• Install clip in the same orientation as the original; use pliers if needed to seat it firmly
• Inspect the thermal fuse and wiring while installing; replace any damaged components per OEM guidance

The Icemaker Cycling Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This thermostat plays a crucial role in the icemaker's operation by monitoring the temperature in the icemaker and ensuring it is at the appropriate level for proper ice production. It reads the temperature to determine when the icemaker should cycle on and off.

Causes of a bad icemaker cycling thermostat can include electrical malfunctions, temperature sensor issues, or wear and tear.

Symptoms of a bad icemaker cycling thermostat may include:

• Inconsistent ice production.
• The icemaker not cycling properly.
• The icemaker not dumping the ice into the ice bin.

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

This is a replacement screw fastener used to secure appliance components and panels. It restores proper fastening and helps stop loose parts from vibrating or shifting during operation. What it does:

• One replacement screw (quantity: 1)

• Use appropriate driver and moderate torque to avoid stripping threads or damaging parts
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before working on the unit
• Repair or replace the mating component as needed

This is the small extension that attaches to the ice maker's shut-off arm. It lengthens the arm so the ice bin can reliably raise/lower the arm to stop ice production when full and resume when space is available.

• Extends the ice maker's shut-off/bail arm for proper bin detection
• Helps prevent ice maker overfilling when the bin is full
• Can resolve issues like continuous ice production, overfilling, or ice not stopping
• Restores original fit and function on compatible ice maker assemblies

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before servicing
• Access the ice maker, then slide/clip the extension onto the shut-off arm as directed by your model's service info
• Ensure the arm moves freely and properly actuates the ice maker switch
• Restore power and verify the arm stops ice production when raised

This replacement screw secures panels, trim pieces and small assemblies so covers and components stay aligned and rattle-free. It's a simple, direct fastening part used when an original screw is missing or damaged. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, control housings and other small components to the appliance chassis
• Replaces missing, worn or stripped screws that cause loose panels or rattling noises
• Restores correct alignment of covers and trims after service or disassembly
• Provides a direct, hardware-level repair instead of temporary fixes

You should replace the water inlet valve if it becomes faulty. Causes of a bad water inlet valve can include wear and tear from regular use, mineral buildup from hard water, or electrical issues. A malfunctioning valve can lead to improper water flow, affecting the dishwasher’s performance and potentially causing water leaks.

Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve include:

• The dishwasher not filling with water or filling slowly
• Water leaking from the valve area
• Dishes not being cleaned properly due to insufficient water
• The dishwasher making unusual noises during the fill cycle

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