This ice ejector is the plastic arm that pushes cubes out of the ice maker mold and into the ice bin, restoring proper ice ejection and dispenser function. It's a direct-replacement component for affected ice maker assemblies. What it does:

• Physically strips and pushes formed ice cubes from the mold into the bin or dispenser
• Helps restore normal ice dispensing when cubes remain stuck in the mold
• Works with the ice maker's motor/gear train to time ejection during the harvest cycle
• Commonly replaced when the ejector is broken, cracked, or worn and no longer contacts cubes

• One ice ejector (ejector arm)

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before starting any repairs
• Remove the ice maker/cover or access panel as required to reach the ejector
• Inspect related components (drive gear, motor, and mounting pins) for wear while replacing the ejector
• After installation, run a test harvest/dispense cycle to correct operation

• Fits into the door/hinge assembly to provide a stable stop point
• Common symptom: door opens too far, bangs against surrounding cabinetry, or hang/align issues

• High-level replacement — remove door/hinge trim as needed per your model's instructions
• Use basic hand tools; keep fasteners separate and note orientation for reassembly
• Disconnect power if working near electrical components (applies to ovens/microwaves)
