The Ice Level Control Board is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is an electronic component responsible for monitoring and regulating ice production in the icemaker. The board works with sensors to detect the level of ice in the bucket and control the icemaker accordingly. It plays a vital role in ensuring a consistent ice supply.

Symptoms of a bad control board include:

  • Irregular or inconsistent ice production
  • The icemaker failing to turn on at all
  • Error codes displayed related to the icemaker
  • Sensors providing inaccurate readings to the control board

Causes of a bad control board can include failure over time due to normal wear and tear, exposure to moisture or temperature fluctuations, or damage due to electrical surges.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
