This is an ice bin that is used on refrigerator and freezer units. The purpose of this part is to store the ice that has already been made so that it is ready for dispensing. The auger is included with this part, which is the component that drives the ice out of the freezer for dispensing. Over time, the white plastic material that the bin is made of may begin to crack or break due to exposure to extreme temperatures over time. If this is the case, it will need to be replaced. If the auger no longer functions, it could have become damaged and this part will also replace the auger itself. Wear work gloves when replacing this part.This ice bin is compatible with refrigerator and freezer units that have been manufactured by Kenmore Elite, Kenmore Pro, Kenmore, and Frigidaire. It is sold individually. This part is sourced directly from the manufacturer.

The Ice Auger is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is essential for the proper functioning of the ice dispensing system. The auger rotates to move ice from the ice bin through the dispenser chute, allowing ice cubes to be dispensed efficiently.

Over time, the ice auger can become worn out, broken, or jammed due to regular use or the buildup of ice and debris. Causes of a bad ice auger include wear and tear, damage from foreign objects in the ice bin, or issues with the motor that drives the auger.

Symptoms of a bad ice auger include:

• The ice dispenser not dispensing ice
• Grinding or unusual noises from the ice dispenser
• Ice cubes getting stuck or not moving through the chute
• Inconsistent or slow ice dispensing

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

This ice container assembly stores ice in the freezer and feeds it to the dispenser on demand. Replacing a damaged or worn bin restores smooth, consistent ice dispensing and helps prevent jams and poor delivery. What it does:

• Holds and organizes ice in the freezer for dispensing
• Uses the internal auger to move ice toward the chute when dispensing is activated
• Interfaces with the crusher/cube selection in applicable designs
• Common symptoms of failure: no or intermittent ice dispensing, grinding during dispense, jammed ice, or visible cracks/broken tabs on the bin

• Includes: 1 ice container assembly

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the old bin and discard any ice; allow any frost buildup to thaw to avoid forcing parts
