• Secures panels, brackets, or components in place to maintain appliance stability
• Stops rattling, vibration noise, and intermittent contact caused by loose fasteners
• Restores proper alignment where original screws have stripped, corroded, or been lost
• Functions as a direct-fit hardware replacement when the OEM screw is needed

The Icemaker Fill Cup Sensor is an OEM part for Whirlpool bottom-mount and side-by-side refrigerators. Located inside the icemaker assembly, the fill cup sensor works to automatically detect when an ice scoop or bucket is in place below the icemaker chute. It signals the icemaker to drop ice cubes into the receptacle below.

Causes of a bad fill cup sensor can include mineral or dirt build-up inhibiting sensor response, moisture damage to its electronic functioning, or physical damage to the sensor head.

Symptoms of a bad fill cup sensor include:

• Ice failing to dispense or drop when a container is in place
• Ice clumping in the chute instead of dispensing properly  
• The icemaker continuing to run even with ice present below
• Inability to sense when ice is removed from the bucket

This OEM Whirlpool replacement fill cup sensor is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore bottom-mount and side-by-side refrigerators.

• Helps maintain proper water distribution for consistent cleaning
• Can resolve symptoms like noisy spray arm movement or uneven wash performance

Replacement mounting screw for refrigerators. Secures panels, trim pieces, and small assemblies. Needed when original screw is missing or damaged.

This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.
