{"product_id":"w11087434","title":"Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker (W11087434)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker is the self-contained unit inside your freezer that automatically produces and harvests ice cubes for everyday use. It works by filling a mold with water, freezing it, then using a heating element and ejector arm to release the cubes into the ice bin below. Once the bin reaches capacity, a shutoff arm or sensor stops production until more ice is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker can fail due to worn-out motors, a burned-out heating element, a faulty thermostat, or cracked mold components from repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
