Symptoms of a bad Micro Switch include:

• The ice or water dispenser not functioning  
• Intermittent operation of the dispenser 
• Stuck dispenser preventing ice or water from stopping

Causes of a bad Micro Switch can include physical damage from heavy use, wear and tear over time, or electrical issues such as short circuits that impair the switch's function.

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

Causes of a bad water tube assembly can include blockages from mineral deposits, kinks or cracks in the tubing, or damage from regular use. If the tube becomes compromised, it can lead to inadequate water supply or leaks.

Symptoms of a bad water tube assembly include:

• Reduced or no water flow to the ice maker or dispenser
• Leaking water inside or outside the refrigerator
• Ice maker not producing ice

The Whirlpool refrigerator dual solenoid icemaker water inlet valve is an OEM replacement part responsible for controlling the water flow to the refrigerator's icemaker. It is typically located at the back of the refrigerator, near the bottom, where the water supply line connects to the refrigerator. The water valve receives signals from the refrigerator's control board to open and close, allowing water to flow into the icemaker.


The Whirlpool water inlet valve can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Failure to make ice or limited ice production
• Loud or unusual noises coming from the water valve

The Icemaker Fill Tube Fitting is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part connects the water supply line to the icemaker, ensuring a seamless and leak-free delivery of water into the icemaker mold.  

Causes of a bad Icemaker Fill Tube Fitting can include wear and tear over time, mineral buildup from hard water, which can block the water flow or damage the fitting, and improper installation that may lead to leaks or restricted water flow.

Symptoms of a bad Icemaker Fill Tube Fitting include:

• Water leakage at the connection points, leading to potential water damage or ice buildup in the freezer
• Insufficient ice production if the fitting is partially blocked or not properly connected, restricting water flow to the icemaker
• Unusual noise during the icemaker fill cycle, indicating a potential issue with the fitting

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

Causes of a bad water line can include wear and tear from prolonged use, kinks or bends restricting water flow, or leaks due to punctures or cracks. A compromised water line can result in inadequate ice production or water leaks.

Symptoms of a bad ice maker water line include:

• Reduced or no ice production
• Leaking water from the refrigerator
• Visible cracks or damage to the water line
• Ice cubes that are smaller than usual

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
