This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.

This ice deflector guides ice cubes from the icemaker into the ice bin to help keep ice delivery consistent and reduce cube jams or spills. It's a simple replacement that restores proper ice routing in compatible refrigerators. What it does:

An ice maker delay mechanism is the small timing device that staggers the steps of the ice-making cycle so each action happens in the right order. Replacing a worn unit helps restore steady, predictable ice production.

• Provides a brief, controlled delay in the ice maker cycle so components engage in the correct order
• Helps prevent short cycling or erratic operation
• Failure may result in no ice, intermittent ice, or stalls mid-cycle
• May be accompanied by repeated clicking or ticking from the ice maker head

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice maker assembly to access the delay mechanism
• Transfer any brackets or clips from the original part if required
• Align components carefully during reassembly to avoid bending any lever arms

Ice stripper removes ice cubes from the ice maker mold so the dispenser or storage bin fills properly. Replacing a worn or broken stripper helps the ice maker eject cubes cleanly and reduces ice jams or stuck cubes. What it does:

• Pushes or guides harvested cubes out of the ice mold into the bin during the ice maker's harvest cycle.
• Prevents cubes from sticking in the mold; a damaged stripper can cause incomplete ejection or leftover ice in the mold.
• Works with the ice maker's ejector mechanism to maintain consistent cube release and storage.
• A faulty or broken stripper may lead to noisy operation, partial fills, or visible ice build-up in the mold.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock.
• Remove the ice maker or access panel per the manufacturer's instructions to reach the stripper; keep small parts and screws organized.
• Inspect the ice mold and surrounding components for damage or ice build-up; clear ice before installing the new stripper.
• After installation, restore power and run a test harvest cycle to ensure proper cube ejection.
