Whirlpool Ice Machine Wire, Harness, Power Cord

This wire harness connects the ice maker's cutter grid to the appliance's electrical system, supplying power so the heated grid can slice the ice slab into cubes. Replacing a damaged harness helps restore consistent cube separation and production.

• Routes electrical power to the cutter grid/heating wires
• A failed, loose, or heat-damaged harness may prevent the grid from warming
• Common symptoms may include whole sheets or large chunks in the bin, cubes not separating, or intermittent/slow ice production
• Visual signs can include melted/discolored grid connectors or broken/brittle conductors

What's included: 1 grid wire harness assembly Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow the cutter grid to cool completely
• Note wiring/connector orientation; transfer one connection at a time to match original routing
• Seat connectors fully and secure the harness in original clips/standoffs away from sharp edges
• After reassembly, restore power and verify the cutter grid warms during a cycle

This ground wire provides a safe chassis connection to restore proper grounding and reduce shock and electrical-fault risk. It replaces a frayed, corroded or missing ground lead to help keep the appliance electrically safe. What it does

• Connects the appliance chassis to the grounding system to prevent stray voltage on metal surfaces
• Restores a secure ground path if the original wire is broken, loose, or corroded
• Helps stop intermittent power faults or nuisance tripping caused by a compromised ground
• Addresses symptoms like visible wire damage, loose ground connection points, or grounding-related electrical issues

What's included

• One ground wire

Install notes

• Always disconnect power (unplug or shut off the circuit breaker) before starting work
• Attach the ring/terminal ends to the designated chassis ground screw and the equipment ground point
• Route the wire away from moving parts, heating elements, and sharp edges; secure with existing clips or fasteners
• If terminal hardware is missing or damaged, replace with equivalent OEM-style fasteners and torque to specification
