Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
This part is a replacement refrigerator drive shaft seal for your refrigerator. The drive shaft seal protects the auger motor from water and condensation that may leak down the drive shaft from the ice bucket. If the seal is broken, water and condensation can get in, causing the ice maker to fail. To replace the seal, first remove the ice bucket from your freezer. Then remove the two screws on the drive shaft holder, and use a pair of pliers to remove the drive shaft. At this point you can remove the seal from the drive shaft. Be sure to clean the area that the seal sits in before you reinstall the drive shaft. This part is white in color and is about an inch in diameter. The seal is sold individually.

Ice maker grinder motor was not running.
Remove the ice bucket and check that the auger that turns in the ice bucket is free to turn. Cover the open freezer with cardboard or whatever to retain most of the freezer temperature. Remove the holder that supports the top of the motor shaft. Check the splines on the upper part of the motor shaft and also check the seal under the holde
... Read morer. Open the access the door to the motor, remove wiring connector and unbolt the motor. Check the lower splines on motor shaft for condition, clean the shaft and apply new grease to the splines. Before installing, connect the wiring to the new motor, push the door switch in, press the ice dispenser arm outside the door to make sure the motor runs. If all ok, check the motor shaft for fit in the new motor. Be careful not to install the motor shaft too deep in the motor splines, otherwise there may not be enough spline showing on the top end to engage the auger. Bolt the motor in place, close access door and install the holder and ice bucket and make sure everything works. If there is not enough spline showing thru the holder to engage the auger, take pliers and pull the shaft up a bit. This seems to be a hit or miss fit on the shaft but you can adjust the height of the shaft without taking every thing apart again. That's all, not difficult at all. But do check parts and pieces for anything else you might need, parts wise, before ordering the motor by itself like I did. Shipping is high, so try to order any associated parts needed when you order the motor. By the way, This site are great to work with!

Ice auger stripped, not turning
Very simple, just remove two bolts holding the auger, One note: the auger comes with a new drive coupling sleeve so it is not necessary to order one.
Upper coupling broken on Ice Bucket Assembly and inner segment and shroud broken on Chute Assembly.
I was disappointed you have to purchase the entire Ice Bucket Assembly in order to get the upper coupling. I also ordered the two seals and washer, only to find they are included in the Chute Assembly. The Chute was a little difficult to remove and reinstall. Other than that the Ice Bucket slides right in and the Chute Assembly requires 2

removed the drive shaft (6 sided) with seals and replaced it. They last for about 5 years and have to be rotated (flipped over) to continue to use. The shaft metal is a little softer than the drive socket on the motor which, over time will cause the six-sided (12 inch) shaft to round the edges due to torque and pressure on the mixing sh

Ice Maker Bucket would not rotate arm to dispense ice
This was a very easy repair. First, remove the Ice Bucket off the refrig door. Unfasten the white plastic shaft holder held in place by 2 hex head screws using a nut driver. Remove old shaft and insert the new shaft. Fasten back up with the holder and 2 hex head screws and install the ice bucket and you are ready to dispense ice again.
Simply took out old part, paying attention to how it comes out. Simply put the seal in, followed by the shaft and then place holder on and screw down with the two screws that were with the old part. Abrakadabra! Ice maker working like new!
Icecube dispencer stopped working because of lack of water seal on motor shaft.
I removed the ice bucket and motor cover on the inside of the left door. Then I removed the 4 screws that hold the motor in place and unplugged the electrical connector. The old motor shaft was all rusted and housing was cracked letting water inside the motor. That's why it failed. The new motor I ordered from Part select came with a rubb

i took the cover plate off the inside of the freezer under the ice bin[two screws] then I disconnected the wiring harness, then removed the four screws to remove the motor and then put the new motor in and the ice dispenser dispensed ice. Less than 1/2 hour with only needing a nut driver,and a flashlight.
removed front cover to the ice maker. checked the electric motor to if it was frozen. Moved it back and forth. Still didn't work. Removed electric motor by removing four screws. Found that electric motor would work when laying on its side but not when correct position. Guessed it was a short in the motor but the motor is completely se

I already have the part i just don't know how to install it. The old washer was torn and was not able to look how it was placed inside the tube.
For model number JCD2595WES02
Hello Arnel, Thank you for your inquiry. This seal goes onto the coupling. You need a quarter inch socket with ratchet and a pair of pliers. Open the freezer door, push the button on the ice bucket to release the latch and lift the ice bin out. Using the quarter inch socket, take the two screws of the coupling holder out and remove it. Using the pliers, pull out the auger motor drive shaft. Slide the seal off the end of the shaft, and place the new seal on the end. Slide the shaft back into the opening, then turn it slightly back and forth until you feel it engage with the auger motor. Put the coupling holder back into place and re-install the screws. Replace the ice bucket. Hope this helps!

Hi, my refridgerator is not defrosting like it should. The freezer seems to be fine, also the fan in the back is running freely. Could this be the defrost heater or what parts would you recommend?
For model number KFIS29PBMS02
Hello Lorelei, thank you for your question. There are a few parts we would recommend testing. The thermistor part number W10316760 located in the back of the freezer section where the evaporator fan motor is, the heater that sits under the evaporator pat number WP12729128, as well as the damper that allows air into the fridge from the freezer part number WPW10248595. If these parts are tested and are fine, you may have an issue with one of the electronic control boards in the unit. I hope this helps!

The freezer fans run all of time, except when the refer goes into a defrost cycle? The refer cycles normal and temps are good.Thanks!
For model number Whirlpool WRS537SIAM00
Hi Terry. This is normal. During the defrost cycle the freezer wont have cold air so it does not make sense for the fan to run. As long as you have no other symptoms I would not worry. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair.

Ice dispensing system is leaking when using for ice and/or water system. It's leaking and water spilled slowly on the floor.
For model number ED2KHAXV001
Hello Robert, thank you for contacting us. Please check the water tubing, part number PS886401, the ice door kit, part number PS11723180, and the micro-switch, part number PS11738948. These parts are the most likely culprits of the symptom that you described. Customer service is available 7 days a week if you require assistance placing an order. Thanks again for reaching out!
My ice maker water supply freezes. If I unplug the appliance for an hour or two and cycle the ice maker control switch it will make ice for two or three cycles before the water supply line freezes again. Once this happens I can hear the pump but no water sound. I have the freezer set on the lowest possible temperature setting. A thermometer inside freezer shows inside temp staying near zero degrees even on lowest setting.
It appears to still defrost properly, I get a layer of ice occasionally underneath the bottom bin.
Suggestions?
For model number WRS555S1HZ00
Hello Deb, Thank you for your inquiry. Researching the model number that you have provided, this could be an issue with the temperature sensor, or the defrost heater. You can test the parts with a multimeter. We have included a link to our video on how to use a multimeter if you are unfamiliar with one. Good luck with your repair.
I have a french door style refrigerator. The refrigerator was making a loud humming sound and my ice maker wasn't making ice and the noise seemed to get louder when the bottom freezer door was opened. Last week the noise quit and the ice maker would spit out a few pieces of ice at a time. I noticed the frozen food was thawing out yesterday. Two days ago i found water leaking out on the floor on the left side of the frig and directly under the ice maker inside the refrigerator. The water stopped leaking on the floor. The frozen food that is thawing out appears to be underneath the food that is still frozen. What would cause these issues?
For model number Mft2976aew00
Hello Camille, Thank you for your inquiry. We would recommend checking the following parts to fix your issue: Evaporator Motor (which includes the temperature sensor and defrost thermostat), the defrost heater assembly, condenser fan motor, and make sure the condenser coils and evaporator coils are clean and free from debris. You can test the motors and heater with a multimeter. Hope this helps!
