The Ice Maker Water Line is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It supplies water from the household plumbing to the ice maker, ensuring a consistent and reliable production of ice cubes. This kit includes a 1/4-inch plastic water line that is approximately 72 inches long. The tubing will need to be cut to match the desired length.

Causes of a bad water line can include wear and tear from prolonged use, kinks or bends restricting water flow, or leaks due to punctures or cracks. A compromised water line can result in inadequate ice production or water leaks.

Symptoms of a bad ice maker water line include:

• Reduced or no ice production
• Leaking water from the refrigerator
• Visible cracks or damage to the water line
• Ice cubes that are smaller than usual

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

The Water Supply Tube is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This tube transports water to supply the automatic ice maker. It ensures a consistent water flow to produce batches of ice on demand.

Causes of a bad water supply tube can include cracks or leaks from regular use and flexing over time. Mineral buildup inside the tube may also restrict water flow.

Symptoms of a bad water supply tube include:

• Ice maker not working or producing ice slowly
• Water droplets under the refrigerator
• Noticeable cracks or splits in the tube

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

• Helps maintain a watertight or airtight connection to reduce leaks and drips
• Replaces corroded, cracked, or stretched clamps that no longer grip reliably
• Supports normal appliance operation by keeping fluid/air flow contained

• One clamp

• Inspect the hose and fitting; replace the hose if damaged before installing the clamp
• Position clamp over the hose barb and tighten evenly; avoid over-tightening that can cut the hose

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.
