{"product_id":"w10886931","title":"Whirlpool Ice Maker Assembly (W10886931)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Whirlpool Ice Maker Assembly is the freezer-mounted module that cycles water into the mold, freezes it into cubes, then uses internal controls, a heater, and a motor-driven ejector to release the cubes into the bin. It also manages the harvest cycle timing and works with the refrigerator’s water inlet valve and shutoff arm or sensor to stop making ice when the bin is full.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommon failures include a worn or stalled ejector motor, a failed mold heater that prevents cube release, internal thermostat or control issues that stop the harvest cycle, and damage from freezing conditions caused by slow water fill or restricted supply. Mineral buildup, intermittent water flow, and repeated ice jams can also strain the mechanism and lead to uneven or incomplete cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are troubleshooting an ice production problem, these symptoms can indicate the ice maker assembly may be the cause:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- No ice production even though the freezer is cold and the water supply is on\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice maker stops mid-cycle, or cycles but does not harvest or drop cubes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Cubes are stuck in the mold or the ejector arms do not move\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Small, hollow, or misshapen cubes due to inconsistent fill or stalled cycling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice overflows, clumps, or jams during ejection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Clicking, buzzing, or grinding sounds from the ice maker area during attempts to cycle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WHIRLPOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42041816678485,"sku":"W10886931","price":121.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/6189\/2437\/files\/imageDisplay_e13ce691-2b56-4233-b5ab-5fb1ca017c90.jpg?v=1767606568","url":"https:\/\/homepartsplus.com\/products\/w10886931","provider":"Home Parts Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
