Symptoms of a bad hinge-sleeve hole plug include:

• Visible gaps or holes in the refrigerator door hinge area
• Accumulation of dust or debris in the hinge mechanism
• Loose or unstable refrigerator door hinges

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

• Typical symptoms: cubes stuck on the ejector, repeated jams, ice spilling or clumping

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator and turn off the ice maker before servicing
• Remove the ice maker front cover; release locking tabs or screws to remove the old stripper
• Position the new stripper over the ejector fingers; seat fully without forcing the rake
• Reinstall cover/ice maker, restore power, and allow a full cycle to verify operation
