• Reassemble in the original sequence and tighten hardware snugly; ensure the auger turns freely before reinstalling

This small but critical actuator spring restores return tension in a refrigerator's actuator mechanism, helping the lever reset to neutral after use so controls feel responsive and operation stops cleanly. What it does:

• Provides the return force for an actuator or lever so it moves back to its neutral position
• Helps the mechanism engage/disengage a switch cleanly
• Common symptoms of a weak or broken spring: lever sticks, feels loose, or doesn't spring back
• Contribute to intermittent activation or failure to stop when released

• 1 actuator spring

• Disconnect power; if working near the dispenser/water system, shut off the water supply
• Access the actuator mechanism and note the spring's exact orientation (take a photo before removal)
• Use needle-nose pliers to transfer the spring; do not over-stretch or deform it
• Wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection; test lever return action before reassembly

Color: black. Measures about 8-1/2 inches wide by 4 inches deep.

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.

This replacement roller mounting screw secures the dryer drum roller or roller bracket to keep the drum aligned. Installing the correct screw restores proper roller position and helps reduce drum wobble and rubbing noises. What it does:

• Fastens the dryer drum roller or roller bracket to the dryer cabinet or shaft
• Keeps the roller aligned so the drum rotates smoothly
• Prevents the roller from shifting, which can cause scraping, squealing, or banging noises
• Helps avoid premature wear of the roller and drum seal caused by misalignment

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas models) before starting any repair
• Use appropriate hand tools; avoid power drivers that may strip the screw head
• Do not overtighten — snug to secure the roller without deforming the bracket or shaft
• Inspect the roller, shaft, and mounting hardware; replace any worn components for a lasting repair

This replacement ice bucket and crusher assembly stores ice and drives it to the dispenser. Its built-in auger and crusher help maintain smooth cube or crushed dispensing when the original bucket is cracked, jammed, or worn. What it does:

• Holds ice and feeds it to the dispenser chute
• Crusher mechanism breaks up cubes for the Crushed setting
• Helps resolve no or slow ice dispensing, only cubes dispensing, or grinding noises
• Replaces cracked, warped, or stripped ice buckets

• 1 ice bucket and crusher assembly

• Unplug the refrigerator and turn the ice maker off before servicing
• Lift out the old bin carefully; discard loose ice to avoid spills
• Align the drive coupling with the auger, then slide the new bin in until fully seated
• Restore power, turn the ice maker back on, and test both Cube and Crush functions

This auger motor and yoke assembly powers the auger that moves ice from the freezer bin through the dispenser, restoring reliable ice delivery when the auger no longer turns or dispenses ice properly. What it does:

• Drives and supports the auger shaft that pushes ice to the dispenser chute
• Replaces a failed or noisy auger motor to restore normal ice dispensing
• Helps when the auger does not rotate, ice won't dispense, or the motor is unusually loud
• Interfaces with the dispenser gearbox/yoke to keep the auger aligned and turning

• One auger motor and yoke assembly

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before beginning any work
• Remove the ice bin and any obstructing panels to access the auger assembly
• Handle parts and panels carefully—sharp edges may be present
