Kitchenaid Refrigerator KBUDT4265E04 Leaking

The Ice Mold is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component forms the ice cubes in the icemaker, shaping the water into cubes as it freezes. The ice mold is crucial for the efficient production of ice, ensuring that each cube is properly formed and easily released into the ice bucket.

You should replace the ice mold if it shows signs of wear or damage. Causes of a bad ice mold can include mineral buildup from hard water, physical damage to the mold surface, or malfunctioning heating elements that prevent ice from releasing properly.

Symptoms of a bad Ice Mold include:

• Ice cubes not forming correctly or being irregular in shape
• Ice cubes sticking to the mold and not dispensing
• The icemaker not producing ice at all
• Leaks around the icemaker area

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

Includes door, support, spring and mechanism delay. No longer uses the ribbon heater due to the improved foam design. If your refrigerator uses this ice door kit and the mounting tabs are broken you can use the broken tab ice door kit 8201756.

This icemaker fill cup and bearing assembly directs water from the inlet tube into the ice mold and provides the pivot point for the shutoff arm. Replacing a cracked or missing cup helps stop leaks, misdirected fills, and inconsistent ice production.

• Channels incoming water into the ice mold to prevent splashing and overfilling
• Provides the pivot/bearing for the ice level (shutoff) arm
• Helps maintain consistent cube size and reliable icemaker shutoff
• Typical symptoms: water or ice buildup under the icemaker, overfilling or hollow/irregular cubes, or a loose/binding shutoff arm

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice bin and detach the icemaker to access the side-mounted cup
• Position the new cup directly under the fill tube; secure with existing hardware and verify the shutoff arm pivots freely in the bearing
• Restore power and water; run a test fill and check for leaks

The Ice Dispenser Chute Door is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is located in the ice dispenser mechanism on the freezer door and is responsible for opening and closing the ice chute. The chute door helps to dispense ice properly and prevents warm air from entering the freezer compartment, which can lead to frost buildup and inefficient cooling.

Symptoms of a failing Ice Dispenser Chute Door include:

• Ice not dispensing properly or getting stuck in the chute
• Frost or ice buildup around the ice dispenser area
•  Warm air entering the freezer, causing temperature fluctuations
• The dispenser door not opening or closing correctly, leading to gaps

Causes of a bad ice dispenser chute door can include wear and tear from regular use, damage from ice jams or blockages, and degradation of the door’s sealing mechanism over time.

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

Note: This part longer uses the ribbon heater due to the improved foam design. If your refrigerator uses this ice door and the mounting tabs are broken, you can use the broken tab ice door kit 8201756.
