Part W10873791 Ice Maker Assembly
Purpose
Produces and dispenses ice automatically
Details
This is the genuine OEM refrigerator ice maker for many Whirlpool-family refrigerators. It accepts water from the inlet valve, fills the mold, freezes cubes, and then auto-harvests them into the ice bin. When this part fails, you may experience no ice production, ice stuck in the mold, or erratic dispensing. Replacing the ice maker restores consistent ice output and proper operation.
Included Items
One complete ice maker unit with mold, actuator motor, fill tube interface, and wiring harness.
Compatible Models
