Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker Wiring Harness (Part Number: OEM18018105)

1 Answer

Hello R., thank you for contacting APP,

Per the manufacturer, W11518244A should have come with 2 harnesses to allow it to be connected to either the 8-pin or 5-pin harness. It does not appear that the manufacturer offers these harnesses individually, they will come with Icemaker Kit W11729596.

Gary, as the ice maker is getting water, it is sending 120VAC to the water valve WPW10279909. As the valve is not allowing the proper amount of water to flow through, this would indicate a failure in the water valve.

Hello Liz,
we are unable to find the correct ice maker kit for your model refrigerator, the refrigerator's 8 terminal receptacle identifies the refrigerator as needing a later version ice maker kit (the older versions used the 4 terminal). The manufacturer refers to these as EZ Connect icemaker kits and there are several different ones depending on the model. Suggest you contact the manufacturer's Customer Service and ask for the correct kit for your model and mention that the refrigerator has the 8 terminal receptacle.

Hello Jim, you will want to test the black wire on the wire harness going into the icemaker for continuity. If it test good, the harness should be fine however if you have continuity the inline fuse has blown and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

Austin for Model Number WRX986SIHZ00

I just bought a reduced Whirlpool Refrigerator. It seems to cool but the panel on the front door does not illuminate nor do the interior lights come on. Conducted troubleshooting procedures and found that someone removed the upper left door hinge cover, cut the wiring harness along with the waterline and then replaced the hinge cover. I believe I can get a splice part for the waterline. The wiring harness and connector that goes toward the door is intact but the wiring harness connector that feeds the body of the refrigerator is missing. It is a rectangle-shaped with 8 pin connectors. The waring harness has enough slack so if I could just get the connector and pins, I could reconnect the harness. I believe this will correct my issue. Your thoughts and can I just buy the connector and pins?

1 Answer

Austin, splicing the wires would be a possibility for repairing this unit. However, in regards to the connector, a specific connector could not be guaranteed to fit properly as the manufacturer does not list the specific connectors in the diagrams.
