The Cutting Grid Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ice machines. It cuts sheets of frozen ice into individual cubes, ensuring ice is available in uniform sizes. Each kit contains 8 screws and approximately 10 feet of wire. Two kits are required to replace both directions of the cutting grid to ensure comprehensive restoration of the ice maker’s functionality.

Causes of a bad Cutting Grid Kit can be attributed to mineral deposits buildup, which can obstruct the cutting process, electrical malfunctions affecting the heating element, or physical damage to the grid wires. 

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Cutting Grid Kit are:

• Ice sheets not being cut into cubes
• Accumulation of uncut ice in the bin
• The heating element fails to warm up
• Inconsistent ice cube sizes

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

Ice maker not draining or leaking water? Your pump may have failed. This ice machine pump circulates water during ice-making or drains water from the unit.

The Ice Machine Cleaner is an OEM replacement part for use with Whirlpool ice machines. This cleaner plays a crucial role in maintaining the efficiency and longevity of your ice machine, ensuring it continues to produce clear, taste-free, and odorless ice. Formulated to remove scale and mineral build-ups, this solution is essential for the regular maintenance of ice machines, which can suffer from lime scale deposits and other residues that affect ice quality and machine performance.

Symptoms of needing an Ice Machine Cleaner include:

• Reduced ice production efficiency.
• The appearance of scale and mineral deposits within the machine.
• Ice that tastes or smells unusual.
• Increased energy consumption as the machine works harder to produce ice.

Regular use of the Ice Machine Cleaner is vital to prevent the accumulation of minerals and scale that can lead to inefficient cooling and increased energy consumption. 

Fixes ice maker not filling with water, hollow or small ice cubes, or no ice production. Controls water flow into the ice maker. DIY-friendly repair.

This water inlet valve regulates the flow of water into the appliance. When the control calls for water it opens; when closed it stops flow. Replacing a faulty valve helps restore proper filling and prevent unwanted leaks. What it does:

• Opens and closes to control the water supply to the system
• Helps maintain correct water flow during fill operations
• Common symptoms of a failing valve: no water enters, slow or intermittent fill, water continues to flow when off, leaks at the valve or connections, or a humming/buzzing sound with little/no water

• 1 water inlet valve

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Place a towel or container to catch residual water; relieve line pressure
• Reconnect tubing and fittings securely; do not overtighten compression nuts
• Restore water and power, then check all joints for leaks and run a test fill to purge air

Ice maker not producing ice or overflowing? Failed thermistor prevents proper temperature monitoring. Direct plug-in replacement restores ice production.

If your ice maker stops cooling or the compressor won't run, the overload protector may have failed. This component shields the compressor from damage.

Connects the cutter grid to your ice maker's electrical system. Replace if wires are frayed, damaged, or connections are loose or corroded.

This adjustable leveling leg threads into the appliance base to set height and stabilize the cabinet. Replacing a worn or missing leg helps stop rocking and vibration and helps maintain proper alignment for reliable operation.

• Provides adjustable support at one corner of the appliance
• Helps level the unit for correct alignment with floor or cabinetry
• Reduces rocking, vibration, and rattling noises
• Replaces stripped, bent, cracked, or missing leg

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water before servicing
• Carefully support or brace the appliance to access the base safely
• Start the new leg by hand to avoid cross-threading; adjust height gradually
• Use a level to check side-to-side and front-to-back, then recheck after positioning

This spacer maintains the correct distance between mating components in your appliance's assembly so parts align and operate smoothly. Replacing a worn or missing spacer can correct looseness, rubbing, or vibration-related noise.

• Holds a precise gap between parts for proper alignment and motion
• Prevents metal-to-metal contact and premature wear
• Helps reduce vibration, rattling, and scraping noises
• Common signs include misalignment, unusual gaps, looseness, or rubbing in the related assembly

• Disconnect power (and shut off gas/water, if applicable) before servicing
• Refer to your model's diagram to locate the spacer's exact location and orientation
• Inspect related fasteners and bushings; replace if worn
• Do not overtighten hardware to avoid deforming the spacer

Secures your ice maker door to the hinge assembly for smooth pivoting. Replace if worn, damaged, or causing door misalignment, rubbing, or sagging.
