Ice Bucket Auger
-
Product Description
If the ice maker in your fridge is noisy or no longer dispensing ice, there may be an issue with the auger in the ice bucket. The auger works by spinning to pull and dispense ice from the bin down the ice chute and into your glass. Regular use of the auger over time can cause it to wear down, and if ice is allowed to build up it can also cause the auger to break. When replacing this part, you will need to remove the entire icemaker assembly from your freezer. Be sure to turn the ice maker off before beginning this repair. As the ice maker assembly is made of plastic, we suggest allowing it to warm up before starting any work, to prevent cracking and further damage. This is a genuine OEM part and is made of clear plastic and metal.
