Joe October 25, 2025 for Model Number Whirlpool 25mssat I just bought a new coupler to replace a busted one on the ice maker. The old one has some sort of grease, I'm assuming to keep everything moving correctly. What sort of grease, if any, do I need to reapply for to complete this repair.
Derrik May 19, 2025 for Model Number wrs555sihz06 What is the part number for #16 in the diagram? It’s the coupler attached to the auger in the ice bin. One of the 3 pins sheered off. I cannot find the part number for that.
1 Answer Hello Derrik, thank you for contacting AppliancePartsPros.com #16 in the Motor and Ice Container Parts diagram for the model you listed is jumper wire W11684619, if you are referring to a piece that is built onto the auger motor W11202789 then the motor would need to be replaced. If you are referring to the diagram that is shown with WP2220458 WP2220458, that diagram is not for the model you have listed, any parts other than those listed under you would be part of the ice container assembly W11244434 and are only serviceable by replacing the ice container assembly.

Roger January 07, 2019 for Model Number 106.54789803 My freezer has two couplings . one pops up when screws are removed ,the other one seems stuck. Do I need to just force it off or is the two coupling thing different?

Britta February 25, 2018 for Model Number 10650592000 Hi, I watched your video on replacing the refrigerator coupling part. I have a spring also, but it falls totally into the shaft, it does not stick out to give spring action. Am I missing another part. Also the top of the coupling detaches very easily. This hasn't worked in a long time, and I was just now thinking to try and fix it myself. I vaguely remember a white plastic piece also, and it is shown in your picture with the coupling. Is that what is missing?
1 Answer Britta, There should be a shaft pin that sticks into the spring and pushes it up. The part number for the shaft pin is 2198666 but has been discontinued with no suitable replacement available. Read More...
Michael September 03, 2016 for Model Number MSB27C2XAW00 Is it possible to get the coupling on the container as well? My gears are skipping. Thought they don't look that worn or cracked. Also it would be useful to have the spring listed as frequently bought together. (part WP2198607)
1 Answer Micheal, You will want to pull the coupling off the lower part where the motor would be. In most cases this will be frozen in a down position and will not engage the upper coupler properly. The upper coupler would have to be replaced with the ice bin as it is not a separate part. Read More...
Joellyn January 08, 2015 for Model Number Kenmore Elite 10650799000 Our ice maker was not pushing ice through the door. My husband realized that a part had broken, so we replaced it. The coupling on the stationary door unit had broken, so we bought replacement part AP3136992. First off, how exactly does it attach to the shaft? Does it simply sit on top? We replaced the coupling by placing it on the shaft and reassembled the unit. Now, the bottom coupling spins when we push the button on the door, but it doesn't seem to connect to the top coupling (on the bottom of the ice container). Do you have any troubleshooting ideas or recommendations? Thank you!
1 Answer Joellyn, What you will want to make sure of is to make sure that the spring is in place in the shaft. If the spring is not in place then the coupling will not push up and make contact. Read More...
