Parts for Kenmore 596.79533014 (59679533014, 596 79533014): Icemaker Parts

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.

The shut-off arm is the lever that tells the ice maker when to stop and start making ice. Replace a bent, missing, or jammed arm to restore proper ice production control and prevent bin overfilling. What it does:

• Lowers to allow ice production; raises to stop cycles when the bin is full (down = on, up = off)
• Helps prevent overfilling, spills, and auger jams
• Common symptoms: ice maker won't stop making ice, no ice when the arm is stuck up, inconsistent ice production from misalignment
• Restores proper ice level sensing when the original lever is damaged or missing

• One shut-off arm

• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing
• Remove the ice bin to access the ice maker
• Seat the arm's pivot ends fully in the ice maker head; avoid bending the lever
• The arm moves freely up/down and clears the bin before restoring power

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 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

Directs water into the ice maker fill cup. Replace this funnel if cracked, broken, or missing to ensure proper water flow and prevent spills during ice production.

Speed clip slides over panel edges to create captive threads for mounting screws. Replace worn, missing, or broken clips to restore secure attachment.

This ice maker assembly produces and dispenses ice cubes in your refrigerator's freezer compartment. It automatically fills with water, freezes it into cubes, and releases them into the ice bin. Replace this part when your refrigerator stops making ice, produces misshapen cubes, or makes unusual noises during the ice-making cycle.
