Kenmore Refrigerator 106.9542921 (1069542921, 106 9542921) Parts

This ice deflector guides ice cubes from the icemaker into the ice bin to help keep ice delivery consistent and reduce cube jams or spills. It's a simple replacement that restores proper ice routing in compatible refrigerators. What it does:

• Directs ice cubes from the icemaker into the ice bin for orderly dispensing
• Helps prevent ice clumping and blockages that can stop ice flow
• Keeps ice moving away from the icemaker assembly and into the bin
• Restores proper alignment and function after a cracked or missing deflector

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing to avoid electrical or mechanical injury
• Remove the ice bin or access panel per your model's service instructions to reach the deflector
• Part typically snaps or slides into place; reuse existing fasteners unless new hardware is supplied
• After installation, reconnect power and run the icemaker through a cycle; discard any ice made during the repair if contamination is suspected

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.

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.
