Roper Refrigerator RT18EKRAW00 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.

Fixes ice buildup on the back freezer wall and constant running. This defrost thermostat monitors temperature during defrost cycles. 20-minute repair.

Color: Black. Due to manufacturer changes this replacement is now 17" x 7".

This complete ice maker kit adds automatic ice production capability to refrigerators that don't currently have this feature. It includes the ice maker assembly, necessary connections, and installation hardware to retrofit your refrigerator. Install this kit if you want to add ice making functionality to a compatible refrigerator model that came without an ice maker.

This is a rubber gasket that seals the connection between the water fill tube and the ice maker assembly inside the freezer compartment. It prevents water from leaking around the fill tube during the ice maker's fill cycle. Replace this gasket if you notice water dripping or ice buildup around the fill tube area, or if water is leaking onto the freezer floor during ice production.
