Kitchenaid Refrigerator KTRS20KBAL00 Leaking

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.

The Defrost Bimetal is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It acts as a safety thermostat that monitors and controls the temperature during the defrost cycle. This component ensures that the defrost heater turns off when the evaporator coil reaches a specific temperature, preventing overheating and potential damage.

Causes of failure may include a malfunction due to wear and tear over time, electrical failure, or damage from moisture and ice.  

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Bimetal include:

• The refrigerator is constantly running without cycling off
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils, leading to reduced cooling efficiency
• The refrigerator or freezer compartment is too warm
• Unusual fluctuations in refrigerator temperature

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

The Whirlpool Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. The defrost timer regulates the automatic defrost cycle, which prevents ice buildup on the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment by sending a signal to the defrost heater to turn on and melt any ice buildup on the coils. 

Causes of a bad defrost timer can include mechanical wear over time, electrical failures, or internal component damage. Prolonged usage and voltage spikes can also affect the timer's functionality.

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Timer include:

• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer compartment
• The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperatures
• Unusual noises coming from the appliance 
• The appliance running continuously without cycling off

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

The Evaporator Drip Tray is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators.

Causes of a bad drip tray can include cracks developing in the plastic over time. Mineral deposits may also accumulate, reducing the tray's drainage functionality.

Symptoms of a bad Evaporator Drip Tray include:

• Water leaks or overflow detected inside the freezer base
• Potential freezing or short circuits from excess pooled moisture
• Inability to effectively direct condensate away from coils
• Promotes conditions for mold or odor development

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid and some Kenmore models.

This gasket/seal creates a tight barrier between two mating parts in your appliance to prevent leaks and performance loss. Replacing a worn gasket restores proper sealing and helps stop seepage at the joint. What it does

• Forms a reliable seal between components to prevent fluid or air leaks
• Maintains proper operation by keeping the sealed area contained
• Replaces gaskets that are brittle, cracked, flattened, or swollen
• Common signs include residue or moisture around the joint, visible wear on the old gasket, or a loose/poor seal

• 1 gasket/seal

• Disconnect power and any water or gas supply before servicing
• Note the gasket's orientation; compare old and new parts before installation
• Clean and dry mating surfaces; remove old adhesive and debris
• Seat the gasket evenly; do not overtighten fasteners; test for leaks after reassembly

The Icemaker Complete Add-On Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. The kit includes the icemaker head, auger motor assembly, wire harness, installation hardware, and more. These allow ice production capability to be added to older refrigerators that were not initially equipped with icemaking.

Causes of a bad icemaker can include wear and tear from regular use, mineral buildup from hard water, and electrical issues that affect the ice production cycle.

Symptoms of a bad icemaker include:

• No ice production or slow ice-making
• Ice cubes that are irregularly shaped or smaller than usual
• Leaks or water pooling in the ice maker area
• Unusual noises during the ice-making process

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