W11512149 Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker Assembly

The Refrigerator Ice Maker Assembly is a genuine replacement part suitable for Whirlpool refrigerators. Whirlpool's product range extends to several brands such as Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral, and they also manufacture components for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. This ice maker is engineered to produce eight crescent-shaped ice cubes per cycle and comes equipped with both the ice mold and the control mechanism.

The operation of the ice maker begins when it draws water through the water inlet valve into the ice mold, where the water freezes. Once the ice is formed, the device ejects the cubes and refills to start the process over, continuing until the ice storage bin reaches capacity. An automatic shut-off mechanism is integrated to stop ice production when the bin is full, and a shut-off arm prevents any overflow.

For safety, ensure the refrigerator is turned off and unplugged before installing this ice maker. It is compatible with several Whirlpool brand models, including those from Jenn Air, Kenmore, Kitchen Aid, and Maytag.
