Parts for Whirlpool GI5FSAXVY00: 05 - Icemaker Parts

Replace your refrigerator water filter every 6 months to ensure clean, fresh-tasting water and ice. Easy twist-on installation. Verify fit with your model.

The Ice Mold is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component forms the ice cubes in the icemaker, shaping the water into cubes as it freezes. The ice mold is crucial for the efficient production of ice, ensuring that each cube is properly formed and easily released into the ice bucket.

You should replace the ice mold if it shows signs of wear or damage. Causes of a bad ice mold can include mineral buildup from hard water, physical damage to the mold surface, or malfunctioning heating elements that prevent ice from releasing properly.

Symptoms of a bad Ice Mold include:

• Ice cubes not forming correctly or being irregular in shape
• Ice cubes sticking to the mold and not dispensing
• The icemaker not producing ice at all
• Leaks around the icemaker area

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

Ice maker won't stop making ice or won't start? This shutoff arm controls ice production by sensing bin level. Simple DIY fix in under 30 minutes.

Ice maker not filling properly or water leaking in freezer? A cracked fill cup causes inconsistent fills and leaks. Simple DIY fix guides water correctly.

Ice cubes stuck in tray and won't eject? This ejector arm pushes ice from the mold into the bin. Simple snap-in install restores ice production.

Ice stripper removes ice cubes from the ice maker mold so the dispenser or storage bin fills properly. Replacing a worn or broken stripper helps the ice maker eject cubes cleanly and reduces ice jams or stuck cubes. What it does:

• Pushes or guides harvested cubes out of the ice mold into the bin during the ice maker's harvest cycle.
• Prevents cubes from sticking in the mold; a damaged stripper can cause incomplete ejection or leftover ice in the mold.
• Works with the ice maker's ejector mechanism to maintain consistent cube release and storage.
• A faulty or broken stripper may lead to noisy operation, partial fills, or visible ice build-up in the mold.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Remove the ice maker or access panel per the manufacturer's instructions to reach the stripper; keep small parts and screws organized.
• Inspect the ice mold and surrounding components for damage or ice build-up; clear ice before installing the new stripper.
• After installation, restore power and run a test harvest cycle to ensure proper cube ejection.

Mounts in the dispenser to secure the ice housing assembly. Keeps the chute and door aligned for smooth dispensing. Replace if cracked, broken, or worn.

This thermostat retainer clip secures the defrost thermostat to the evaporator tubing in your refrigerator or freezer, maintaining firm contact for accurate temperature sensing and dependable defrost operation.

• Holds the thermostat firmly against the evaporator line for proper temperature feedback
• Helps prevent a loose or dangling thermostat that contribute to frost buildup and poor defrost performance
• Restores correct mounting when the original clip is cracked, bent, or missing
• Common signs include a broken clip or a thermostat not attached to the coil

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the evaporator compartment; remove accumulated frost/ice as needed without prying on coil fins
• Position the thermostat body flat against the tubing and snap the retainer over it, avoiding pinched wires or damaged fins
• Confirm a secure fit and proper wire routing before reassembling and restoring power

Ice maker stopped making ice? The cycling thermostat monitors temperature to control ice production. DIY-friendly repair with video instructions.

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.

Ice maker stopped working or freezing up? This complete ice maker assembly fixes no ice production and ice blockages. DIY-friendly, 20-minute install.

This drive coupling connects the washer motor to the transmission, transferring power to spin and agitate the tub. Replacing a worn coupling restores proper drivetrain engagement and reduces slipping, grinding, or loss of agitation. What it does:

• Transfers rotational force from the motor to the transmission so the washer can agitate and spin.
• Failsafe for worn motor-to-gearcase connection; a broken coupling commonly causes no-agitate or no-spin symptoms.
• Can produce burning smell, loud grinding, or slipping when deteriorated.
• Helps prevent further damage to the motor or transmission by isolating shock loads.

• Disconnect power and water before starting any repair.
• Basic disassembly of the washer cabinet and access to the motor/transmission area is required.
• Verify correct alignment of tabs/slots during installation to ensure proper engagement.
