Kenmore Refrigerator 106.59799990 (10659799990, 106 59799990) Parts

The Ice Dispenser Chute Door is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is located in the ice dispenser mechanism on the freezer door and is responsible for opening and closing the ice chute. The chute door helps to dispense ice properly and prevents warm air from entering the freezer compartment, which can lead to frost buildup and inefficient cooling.

Symptoms of a failing Ice Dispenser Chute Door include:

• Ice not dispensing properly or getting stuck in the chute
• Frost or ice buildup around the ice dispenser area
•  Warm air entering the freezer, causing temperature fluctuations
• The dispenser door not opening or closing correctly, leading to gaps

Causes of a bad ice dispenser chute door can include wear and tear from regular use, damage from ice jams or blockages, and degradation of the door’s sealing mechanism over time.

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

Note: This part longer uses the ribbon heater due to the improved foam design. If your refrigerator uses this ice door and the mounting tabs are broken, you can use the broken tab ice door kit 8201756.

Kit includes relay, overload, cover and instructions.

Secures panels, brackets, and internal components in your refrigerator. Replace missing, stripped, or corroded screws to restore tight assembly fit.

This bearing nut secures a bearing and related rotating components on the shaft, keeping the assembly tight and aligned for smooth, dependable operation. Replacing a worn or stripped nut helps stop wobble, noise, and drive slippage.

• Locks the bearing/stack onto the shaft to prevent loosening
• Maintains alignment for smooth rotation and reduced vibration
• Helps restore consistent drive in shaft-driven assemblies
• Typical symptoms: loose or non-turning drive, rattling/grinding, or visible thread damage

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water if working near dispenser components
• Remove the related assembly to access the shaft; note part order for reassembly
• Hand-start the nut to avoid cross-threading; verify thread direction against the original
• Tighten securely; inspect the bearing, washers/spacers, and shaft for wear

Crisper drawer won't adjust humidity or slide is broken? This humidity control slide mounts in the crisper cover to regulate airflow and moisture levels.

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.

Fixes compressor that won't start or hums without running. This capacitor provides the electrical boost motors need for reliable startup and operation.

Bottom hinge shim for refrigerator doors. Adjusts door height and alignment for proper seal. Replace if door sags or doesn't close evenly. Confirm fit.

This 6-position switch assembly replaces a worn or damaged selector switch to restore reliable electrical switching for the appliance control. It helps recover proper cycle selection and responsive control inputs for normal operation. What it does:

• Routes power between control circuits so selected cycles and settings engage correctly.
• Restores reliable selector/position switching when the control won't change settings.
• Common symptom when failing: appliance is unresponsive to cycle changes, selections don't register, or operation is intermittent.
• Matches the OEM switch function used in the control/timer area of compatible units.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any service to avoid shock hazard.
• Remove required panels or the control console to access the switch; keep track of screw locations and wire connections.
• Photograph or label wiring before disconnecting to ensure correct reassembly.

Rubber grommet kit that mounts and cushions the compressor. Replace worn, cracked, or damaged grommets to restore proper support and isolation.

Fix ice not dispensing properly with this ice crusher blade. Replaces free-wheeling or worn blades on the auger assembly. DIY-friendly repair.

Refrigerator not cooling or running too warm? A failed compressor stops refrigerant circulation. This is an advanced repair requiring special tools.

This terminal block cover protects the appliance's electrical connection area from accidental contact and debris, helping reduce the risk of shorts and corrosion while keeping wiring secure and contained. What it does:

• Covers and shields the power terminal/block where the power cord connects
• Helps prevent accidental contact with live terminals and reduces short risk
• Keeps out dust, lint and debris that can cause corrosion or arcing
• Useful when the original cover is cracked, missing or showing burn marks

• Always disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before servicing electrical components
• Typically installs over the terminal block and secures with the existing fastener(s); inspect mounting hardware for wear
• Replace if cracked, melted or if terminals are exposed; ensure cover seats fully before restoring power

Glass shelf for refrigerator fresh-food compartment. Provides stable surface for storing food and containers. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing.

Replace your cracked or cloudy dispenser light lens to restore clear illumination. Protects the bulb and improves visibility. Verify fit with your model.
