The Ice Container Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This assembly includes the ice bin, where ice is collected, and often features integrated mechanisms or augers for dispensing ice through the refrigerator's door.
Causes of a bad Ice Container Assembly can include cracks or damage to the bin, which can lead to ice leaks or accumulation in the freezer; wear or malfunction of the dispensing mechanism, affecting its ability to deliver ice.
Symptoms of a bad Ice Container Assembly include:
- Difficulty in dispensing ice or complete failure to dispense
- Ice accumulation outside of the bin, indicating a potential crack or gap
- Excessive frost or ice buildup restricting the assembly's movement
- Noticeable cracks or damage to the ice container itself
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
