{"product_id":"w11126009","title":"Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker (W11126009)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker is a self-contained unit mounted inside the freezer compartment that automatically freezes water into ice cubes and releases them into the storage bin. It works by filling a mold with water, freezing it, then using a heating element and ejector arm to harvest and deposit the cubes, cycling continuously to keep the bin stocked.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker can fail due to worn-out components in the motor module, a faulty thermostat, a broken ejector arm, or a failed heating element that prevents proper ice release. Normal wear over time, mineral buildup from hard water, or a single electrical failure within the unit can cause the entire assembly to stop cycling or produce ice inconsistently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese symptoms can help you decide if the ice maker matches your problem:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice maker has completely stopped producing ice\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice maker runs but cubes are not ejected into the bin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice cubes are malformed, hollow, or much smaller than normal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice maker overflows, producing a solid block of ice instead of individual cubes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice maker cycles continuously without stopping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Unusual grinding or clicking sounds coming from the freezer compartment\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ice has an off taste or odor linked to stalled water in the mold\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Whirlpool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46384393912405,"sku":"W11126009","price":103.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/6189\/2437\/files\/whirlpool-refrigerator-ice-maker-w11126009.jpg?v=1792200651","url":"https:\/\/homepartsplus.com\/products\/w11126009","provider":"Home Parts Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
