Maytag Ice Maker & Related

PLEASE NOTE: Due to manufacturer changes, the auger is now metal

The Icemaker is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is responsible for producing ice by automatically filling with water, freezing it, and then ejecting the ice cubes into the storage bin. Please note that for installation, you will need to reuse the original cover and bracket from your existing icemaker. Makes 5 cubes at a time.

Causes of a bad icemaker can include mechanical failures, clogged water lines, or electrical issues. Over time, wear and tear from constant use or exposure to hard water and impurities can also affect its performance.

Symptoms of a bad icemaker include:

• The icemaker not producing ice
• Ice cubes being smaller than usual or misshapen
• Leaking water inside the freezer
• Unusual noises during the ice-making process
• The ice bin not filling up

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

Note: The icemaker does not include the harness or the shut off arm.

This ice container assembly stores ice in the freezer and feeds it to the dispenser. Replacing a cracked or worn bin restores reliable dispensing and helps prevent jams, clumps, or spills inside the freezer. What it does:

• Holds ice produced by the icemaker and stages it for dispensing
• Interfaces with the drive to move ice toward the chute when dispensing
• Helps maintain proper ice flow and reduce clumping
• Common symptoms: ice not dispensing or dispensing slowly, loud grinding during dispense, visible cracks, or ice spilling/leaking from the bin

• 1 ice container assembly

• Disconnect power and turn off the icemaker before servicing
• Remove the old bin and discard any remaining ice; clear frost or debris from the drive area
• Slide the new assembly straight onto the drive coupler until fully seated and latched
• Restore power and allow fresh ice to be made before testing dispensing

This Arm-Stripper is the factory replacement stripper arm that restores the original part that guides and supports related moving components, helping the appliance operate smoothly and quietly. What it does

• Positions and guides the component it mates with to prevent binding or misalignment.
• Helps maintain proper contact/clearance between moving parts for reliable operation.
• Prevents rubbing or wear that can cause noise or uneven performance.
• Common signs it may be needed: rubbing or scraping noises, part misalignment, or erratic movement where the arm is located.

• One Arm-Stripper replacement part.

• Recommended for users familiar with basic appliance repair; verify power is disconnected before starting.
• Inspect surrounding clips, fasteners and mating parts; replace damaged hardware as needed.
• Handle carefully to avoid bending or damaging the arm during installation.

This ejector arm replaces the dispenser ejector that helps move detergent or rinse aid from the dispenser to the wash chamber for proper release during the cycle. Restores reliable dispensing and prevents missed or partial releases. What it does:

• Physically pushes or guides detergent/rinse into the wash chamber at the correct point in the cycle
• Replaces cracked, broken, or worn ejector arms that fail to move or sit correctly
• Addresses symptoms such as detergent not dispensing, dispenser door sticking, or visible damage to the ejector arm
• Works with the dispenser assembly to ensure consistent product release during operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the dispenser assembly per the service manual to access and replace the ejector arm
• Inspect surrounding dispenser components (hinges, springs, clips) and replace if damaged

This ice mold is the molded tray section that forms individual ice cubes in the refrigerator ice-making assembly, restoring proper cube shape and water containment for consistent ice production. What it does:

• Holds and shapes water into individual ice cubes as part of the ice maker assembly
• Directs water into cube cavities for even freezing and consistent cube size
• Replaces a cracked, warped or damaged mold that can cause leaks or misshapen cubes
• Helps stop water pooling inside the ice maker area when the mold is intact

• Disconnect power to the appliance and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice maker assembly to access the mold; handle carefully to avoid damage
• Inspect mounting tabs and seals; replace any damaged fasteners or gaskets before reassembly

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
