Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• The refrigerator door seems misaligned or does not close properly.
• Increased effort needed to open or close the door.
• Unusual gaps around the door seal when closed.
• The door might squeak or make other noises during operation.

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

This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.

This replacement screw secures panels, brackets, or trim within your appliance. Replacing a worn, stripped, or missing screw restores a tight, rattle-free fit so components stay aligned and operate as intended. What it does:

• Fastens components at the original factory locations specified for this part
• Replaces missing, damaged, or stripped screws to restore holding power
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling from loose parts
• Maintains proper alignment of panels, covers, brackets, and trim

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before servicing
• Match to the original screw and install in the same location and orientation
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Use the correct driver or nut-driver; transfer any washers or spacers from the original hardware if present

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.
