Parts for Whirlpool G2IXEFMWB02: 08 - Water Dispenser Parts

The Whirlpool EveryDrop Refrigerator Water Filter 6 is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This water filter is designed to reduce contaminants in the water supply, such as chlorine, lead, and other harmful substances, ensuring clean and safe drinking water and ice. It provides up to six months of filtration before needing replacement.

Causes of a bad water filter can include the end of its lifespan, clogging from excessive contaminants, or damage from improper installation. Over time, filters lose their effectiveness as they reach their capacity to absorb impurities.

Symptoms of a bad water filter include:

• Reduced water flow from the dispenser
• Unpleasant taste or odor in water and ice
• Cloudy or discolored water
• The filter indicator light on the refrigerator signaling a replacement

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

The Micro Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators that is responsible for controlling the ice and water dispenser. The switch operates by responding to mechanical actions, like the pressing of the dispenser paddle or button to open or close to allow water and ice to be dispensed. 

Symptoms of a bad Micro Switch include:

• The ice or water dispenser not functioning  
• Intermittent operation of the dispenser 
• Stuck dispenser preventing ice or water from stopping

Causes of a bad Micro Switch can include physical damage from heavy use, wear and tear over time, or electrical issues such as short circuits that impair the switch's function.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
