Parts for Dacor EF42DBSS: Dispenser Parts

The Dispenser Arm Strain Relief is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. It connects the water and ice dispenser arm to the fridge cabinet, absorbing tension during use.  

Causes of a bad strain relief involve wear and flexing fatigue of the plastic over extensive dispensing cycles. Exposure to moisture or liquid damage inside the fridge liner may prematurely degrade connecting parts as well.

Symptoms of a bad strain relief include:

• Cracks, splits, or tears in the relieving plastic material  
• Dispenser arm separation from the cabinet opening
• Missing pieces that compromised structural integrity 
• Difficulty accessing or using the refrigerator's water/ice functions

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

The Ice Dispenser Chute Door is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is located in the ice dispenser mechanism on the freezer door and is responsible for opening and closing the ice chute. The chute door helps to dispense ice properly and prevents warm air from entering the freezer compartment, which can lead to frost buildup and inefficient cooling.

Symptoms of a failing Ice Dispenser Chute Door include:

• Ice not dispensing properly or getting stuck in the chute
• Frost or ice buildup around the ice dispenser area
•  Warm air entering the freezer, causing temperature fluctuations
• The dispenser door not opening or closing correctly, leading to gaps

Causes of a bad ice dispenser chute door can include wear and tear from regular use, damage from ice jams or blockages, and degradation of the door’s sealing mechanism over time.

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