Description
The Ice Level Arm is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is an component of the ice maker, responsible for sensing the ice level in the ice bin and controlling the ice production cycle. When the ice bin reaches capacity, the ice level arm signals the ice maker to stop producing ice, ensuring efficient operation.
You should replace this ice level arm if it becomes faulty. Causes of a bad ice level arm can include mechanical wear and tear, accidental damage, or issues with the connection to the ice maker mechanism.
Symptoms of a bad Ice Level Arm include:
- Continuous ice production, leading to overfilling
- The ice maker not producing ice even when the bin is empty
- The ice level arm not moving freely or appearing stuck
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
