Whirlpool Id3chexws00 Parts

The Whirlpool latch spring is an OEM replacement part responsible for securing the ice container or bin in place on a refrigerator. Its main function is to provide tension and support to the ice container latch, allowing it to engage and disengage properly. When the ice container is inserted into the refrigerator's ice compartment, the latch spring ensures that it securely locks in place, preventing accidental spillage of ice.

Causes of a bad latch spring can include metal fatigue from repeated use, rust or corrosion from exposure to moisture, or physical damage from accidental impacts.

Symptoms of a bad latch spring include:

• The ice container not staying in place and sliding out of position
• Difficulty in properly attaching or detaching the ice container from the refrigerator
• The ice container feeling loose or wobbly when inside the ice compartment
• The ice container not aligning correctly with the ice dispenser or auger

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

Size: 8 x 1/2 ab.

Color: Black

Clip for bottom grill. If your original clip is riveted, order screw WP489478.

• Helps produce crushed ice when selected at the dispenser
• Maintains proper clearances to reduce jams and inconsistent ice size
• Symptoms: ice won't crush, only cubes dispense, dispenser jams or makes grinding noises, visible cracks in the crusher bin

• Disconnect power and remove the ice bucket from the freezer.
• Carefully disassemble the crusher assembly, noting the order and orientation of blades and spacers.
• Transfer components to the new lower bin and ensure tabs/retainers are fully seated.
• Reinstall the bucket and test both Cube and Crush settings.

The Ice Lever is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. Positioned within the ice dispenser assembly, the lever is activated when a glass or container is pushed against it, triggering the release of ice.

Causes of a bad ice lever include physical wear and tear due to frequent use, or breakage from mishandling or accidental impact. Additionally, buildup of ice or debris around the lever can lead to it malfunctioning.

Symptoms of a faulty ice lever include:

• Ice not dispensing properly
• Lever sticking or becoming difficult to press
• Lever being visibly cracked or broken

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