The ice maker bracket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This bracket is a structural component that holds and supports the icemaker assembly within the refrigerator. It allows for secure mounting and installation of the icemaker while also maintaining proper alignment.

Causes of a bad bracket can include wear and tear over time, cracks or breaks due to impact or stress, or corrosion issues that compromise the integrity of the mounting structure.

Symptoms of a bad bracket include:

• Loose or unstable icemaker installation
• Improper ice production or dispensing
• Noise or vibrations emanating from the icemaker area
• Moisture leaks or water damage near the bracket mounting points

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

This replacement ice cube pan holds and organizes ice in your refrigerator's freezer. Replacing a cracked or warped pan restores clean, contained ice storage and smoother access or dispensing, depending on your model's design. What it does:

• Collects and stores ice produced by the icemaker or manual trays
• Keeps cubes contained and easy to access; fits designated guides in the freezer
• Helps ensure proper ice access or dispensing on applicable models
• Typical symptoms: cracked bin, broken tabs, bin won't seat, ice spilling or clumping

• 1 ice cube pan/bin

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator and turn off the icemaker before starting
• Remove the old pan and empty any remaining ice
• If your model reuses a drive/crusher or other hardware, transfer those parts from the original pan as directed for your unit
• Seat the new pan fully in its tracks/coupler, restore power, and allow normal ice production

Size: 8-32 x 1/2 inch.

This is a 8-15 x 2.00 in. hex washer head, self-locking screw used to secure appliance panels and components. It provides a durable, vibration-resistant fastener that helps keep parts aligned and stable. What it does:

• Fastens and secures panels, brackets, or assemblies to the appliance frame
• Self-locking design helps resist loosening from vibration or thermal cycling
• Hex washer head gives a larger bearing surface to prevent pull-through on thin materials
• Commonly replaced when screws are missing, stripped, or causing loose/rattling parts

• Use the correct driver/socket to avoid rounding the hex head
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-torquing which can strip threads or damage components
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before working inside the unit
• Replace any stripped or damaged mating hardware for secure fastening

This freezer door gasket seals the door to the cabinet to keep cold air in and humid air out. Replacing a worn gasket restores a proper seal, helping maintain temperature and reducing frost and condensation around the door.

• Creates a continuous perimeter seal between the freezer door and cabinet
• Helps stabilize freezer temperatures and limits warm-air leaks that can lead to frost/ice buildup
• Common failure signs: torn or hardened gasket, visible gaps, moisture or ice near the door
• Almond color to match compatible units

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Warm the new gasket in hot water or with low heat to relax folds, then start at the corners and work evenly around the door
• On screw-retained styles, loosen perimeter screws and tuck the gasket lip under the retainer; tighten evenly
• After installation, check seal with a dollar-bill test and allow up to 24 hours for the gasket to fully conform

This evaporator fan blade mounts on the freezer's fan motor and circulates cold air through the cabinet. Replacing a cracked, loose, or warped blade restores proper airflow for even cooling and reliable refrigerator performance.

• Circulates air across the evaporator coils to push chilled air throughout the compartments
• Helps maintain consistent temperatures and overall cooling efficiency
• Supports frost control by keeping air moving over the coils
• Typical failure signs: rattling/scraping noises, weak airflow, uneven cooling, or frost buildup

• Unplug the appliance before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the evaporator fan (commonly behind the rear freezer panel)
• Pull the old blade straight off the motor shaft; align and press the new blade on, matching the original orientation/position
• Hand-spin to confirm clearance; reassemble and restore power to test airflow

Color: white. Measures about 30 inches wide by 20 inches deep.

This replacement screw secures panels, trim pieces and small assemblies so covers and components stay aligned and rattle-free. It's a simple, direct fastening part used when an original screw is missing or damaged. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, control housings and other small components to the appliance chassis
• Replaces missing, worn or stripped screws that cause loose panels or rattling noises
• Restores correct alignment of covers and trims after service or disassembly
• Provides a direct, hardware-level repair instead of temporary fixes

• Disconnect power (and gas, where applicable) and ensure the appliance is cool before starting.
• Use the correct screwdriver bit and turn until snug; do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads or damaging parts.
• Keep removed hardware for reference; replace like-for-like if threads or inserts are damaged.
• Wear eye protection and gloves when working on appliances.

This hole cover seals an access/opening in the refrigerator evaporator housing to help maintain proper airflow and prevent moisture or frost from entering the cabinet. A simple replacement that restores the evaporator enclosure's intended seal. What it does:

• Seals an opening in the evaporator housing to reduce air leaks and unwanted moisture entry
• Helps prevent excessive frost or ice buildup near the evaporator area
• Supports consistent cooling by keeping the evaporator cover intact
• Can stop interior water or debris from entering the evaporator cavity

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the evaporator cover or access panel as required to reach the opening
• Press or snap the cover into place until it seats securely; no special tools typically required
• If the cover is brittle or damaged, inspect surrounding mounting surfaces and replace as needed

This machine screw secures appliance panels and components for reliable operation and alignment. A simple replacement that restores proper fit and prevents rattles or loose parts. What it does

• Fastens panels, brackets, or components to restore secure attachment
• Stops squeaks, rattles, or vibration caused by loose fasteners
• Replaces worn, stripped, or missing screws to maintain safety and function
• Matches OEM threading and head style for correct fit when specified

• One machine screw

• Use the correct driver size to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; stop when snug to prevent damage to threads or parts
• Disconnect power and move the appliance to a safe, stable position before working near electrical components
• Ensure proper torque and consider thread engagement length
