Description
The Wire Harness is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a network of bundled wires that connect electrical components throughout the unit.
The wire harness plays an important role in powering functions like LED lighting, ice makers, door alarms, and temperature control boards behind interior shelves. It acts as the circulatory system that energizes systems.
Causes of a bad wire harness can include cracked insulation exposing wires to moisture, cuts from sharp edges during repairs, or severed connectors preventing signals from passing through.
Symptoms of a bad wire harness include:
- Lights or ice production malfunctions
- Failure to maintain desired temperatures
- Buzzing or humming sounds behind walls
- Entire refrigerator not powering on
This OEM Whirlpool replacement part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore models.
