Description

This ice chute door replaces the small flap that covers the ice dispenser opening, helping ice drop cleanly into your cup and keeping the freezer compartment sealed when not dispensing. Restores proper ice flow and helps reduce drafts. What it does

• Acts as the swing flap that opens to allow ice to pass from the freezer bin through the dispenser.
• Helps prevent warm air and moisture from entering the freezer when the dispenser is idle.
• Reduces ice jamming and improves consistent dispensing when the flap moves freely.
• Common symptom: ice not dispensing cleanly or flap hanging open after use.

What's included

• One ice chute door (single dispenser flap).

Install notes

• Remove power to the appliance before starting any service to avoid injury.
• Access usually requires opening the freezer door/dispenser housing and releasing clips or screws; keep fasteners for reuse.
• Inspect adjoining seals and mount points; replace if cracked or broken to ensure a proper seal.
