WR30X39385 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Ice Maker
The WR30X39385 is a genuine GE OEM ice maker assembly for GE refrigerators. This complete unit receives water, holds it in an internal mold, and freezes it into cubes, then ejects the finished ice into the freezer's ice bucket or drawer, repeating the cycle automatically until the bucket is full. It's the full assembly, not just an internal component, so replacing it addresses the ice-making mechanism, mold, and cycling controls together as one unit.
Over time, internal components can wear or fail electrically, or the mold itself can develop issues that affect how cleanly ice releases. A failing ice maker typically shows up as reduced or stopped ice production, or ice cubes coming out hollow or malformed rather than solid. It directly replaces AP7179920.
Quick Answer
The WR30X39385 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Ice Maker fixes GE refrigerators that have stopped making ice, are producing significantly less ice than usual, or are making hollow or malformed cubes. Complete ice maker assembly. Replaces AP7179920. Installation is a moderate DIY repair, typically 30-45 minutes.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Ice maker has stopped producing ice entirely
Ice maker producing significantly less ice than usual

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Allow Components To Defrost Disconnect power to the refrigerator before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. If there's frost or ice buildup around the ice maker or its fill tube, allow the area to defrost fully before continuing, since ice buildup can make removal difficult and may mask the fill tube's actual condition. Open the freezer door and locate the ice maker assembly. Remove the ice bucket or drawer to improve access. Photograph the wiring harness connection and the fill tube position before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws securing the ice maker in place, then disconnect the wire harness connector and the water fill tube connection. Remove the old ice maker fully. Install the new WR30X39385 in the same mounting position, making sure the fill tube aligns correctly so water reaches the mold without leaking, and reconnect the wire harness connector securely. Secure the mounting screws, reinstall the ice bucket or drawer, and restore power. Allow several hours for the first cycle to complete and confirm ice is being produced and ejected normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My ice cubes are coming out hollow. Is that the ice maker?
Yes, hollow or malformed cubes are a documented symptom of ice maker issues on this platform, alongside reduced or stopped ice production altogether. This can point to a problem with how the mold fills or releases ice, and replacing the complete assembly addresses the mold and cycling mechanism together rather than trying to diagnose and repair individual internal components.
Why does the fill tube alignment matter so much during installation?
The fill tube is what delivers water from the refrigerator's supply line into the ice maker's mold at the start of each cycle. If it's not aligned correctly during installation, water can miss the mold, leak into the freezer compartment, or fail to fill the mold completely, all of which prevent normal ice production even with a perfectly good new ice maker installed.
Do I need to defrost anything before starting this repair?
If there's visible frost or ice buildup around the old ice maker or its fill tube, yes — letting that area defrost fully makes removal easier and gives you a clearer look at the fill tube's actual condition, rather than working around ice that could mask damage or make the old unit harder to detach cleanly.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same mold design, cycling mechanism, and mounting configuration as the ice maker originally installed in your refrigerator.

XPARTCO 2315549 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor Replaces WP2315549
The XPARTCO 2315549 is an aftermarket replacement evaporator fan motor for Whirlpool-built side-by-side refrigerators, located in the freezer section. This small motor pulls cold air off the evaporator coil and pushes it through the duct system to both the freezer and fresh food compartments. Without it circulating air, the coil itself keeps getting cold, but that cold air never reaches your food — the freezer, being closest to the coil, may hold up reasonably well for a while, but the fresh food compartment depends entirely on ducted airflow and drifts warmer and warmer as circulation weakens or stops.
This motor ships complete with its wiring harness, so nothing needs to be spliced or transferred from the old unit. Common failure modes include worn motor bearings that let the blade wobble or bind, ice buildup on the coil that jams the blade, and electrical failure of the motor windings. A simple way to check before ordering: with the refrigerator unplugged, try turning the fan blade by hand — it should spin freely with no grinding or resistance. It directly replaces WP2315549, 2220569, 1193008, AP6007250, PS11740362, and EAP11740362.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 2315549 Refrigerator Evaporator Fan Motor fixes Whirlpool-built side-by-side refrigerators with uneven cooling between compartments, frost buildup on the evaporator coil, unusual humming or buzzing noise, or a fresh food section that runs warmer than the freezer. Includes wiring harness. Replaces WP2315549, 2220569, 1193008, AP6007250, PS11740362, EAP11740362. Double-check the part number carefully — this is a different motor from our similarly numbered 2315539 listing, and the two are easy to mix up.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Fresh food compartment running warmer than the freezer, or warmer than it used to
Uneven temperatures between shelves or between the fresh food and freezer sides
Frost or ice buildup accumulating on or around the evaporator coil
Unusual humming, buzzing, or grinding noise coming from inside the freezer
Noise that stops when the freezer door is opened and starts again once it's closed
Refrigerator running constantly as the compressor tries to compensate for poor circulation
Fan blade that doesn't spin freely, or spins with noticeable resistance, when checked by hand
Fridge section too warm or too cold, freezer section too warm or too cold

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Let The Freezer Thaw If Iced Over Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move all food from the freezer to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Access is through the freezer's rear interior panel: remove the shelving and bins as needed, then remove the screws securing the back panel and set it aside to expose the evaporator coil and fan assembly. If you see significant frost or ice buildup around the fan or coil, let the unit sit unplugged with the door open for a few hours, or run a manual defrost, before continuing — ice can be masking the actual failure and can make the old motor difficult to remove cleanly. Photograph the wiring harness connector and the fan blade's orientation before disconnecting anything. Unplug the motor's wiring harness connector, remove the mounting screws or clips holding the motor bracket in place, and carefully pull the motor and fan blade assembly free — on many models the blade is a separate piece that pulls off the motor shaft. Transfer the fan blade to the new motor if a blade isn't included, matching the original orientation. Mount the new 2315549 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector fully, and confirm the blade spins freely by hand without contacting the housing before reassembling the back panel. Restore power and monitor both compartments over the next 24 hours to confirm even cooling has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from your 2315539 listing? The numbers look almost identical.
They are genuinely different motors that happen to have nearly identical part numbers — 2315549 versus 2315539, just one transposed digit. This 2315549 motor carries production number ESF-U2A and replaces WP2315549, 2220569, and 1193008. Our separate 2315539 listing carries production number ESF-U2B and replaces a different set of numbers (2219689, 2225625, W10438708) for a different group of models. Because the numbers are so easy to mix up, we'd strongly recommend double-checking the exact number on your old motor, or your full refrigerator model number, before ordering either one.
My freezer seems fine but the fresh food section is warm. Is this the fan motor?
Yes, this is a very common and telling symptom pattern. The freezer compartment sits right next to the evaporator coil and can stay reasonably cold through simple proximity even with poor air circulation, but the fresh food compartment depends entirely on the fan pushing cold air through the ducting to reach it. When the fan motor fails or slows down, the fresh food side is usually the first and most noticeably affected area.
How can I test the motor before ordering a replacement?
With the refrigerator unplugged and the rear freezer panel removed, try turning the fan blade by hand. It should spin freely and smoothly with no grinding, binding, or resistance. If it doesn't turn freely, or doesn't turn at all, the motor has very likely failed. Also listen for humming or buzzing while the refrigerator is running — a motor trying and failing to turn often makes noise without actually moving air.
There's a lot of frost around the fan and coil. Should I address that first?
It's worth understanding which came first. Excess frost can be a cause of fan failure — a jammed, ice-bound blade can burn out the motor over time — or a result of it, since poor air circulation lets moisture condense and freeze unevenly around the coil area. Either way, thawing the ice out fully before installing the new motor makes the repair easier and lets you confirm the blade spins freely once everything is defrosted.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the mounting, wiring harness configuration, and airflow performance of the original WP2315549 evaporator fan motor used in compatible Whirlpool-built side-by-side refrigerators.

Genuine OEM WH08X37938 Washer Lid Switch Assembly
The WH08X37938 is a genuine OEM lid switch (lid lock) assembly from GE for GE and Hotpoint top-load washers, also used on select Kenmore models. The assembly locks the lid while the washer is running and releases it when the cycle ends, and it tells the control board the lid is closed and it's safe to run. When it wears out, cracks, or fails electrically, the washer may refuse to start, stop in the middle of a cycle, show a lid or door lock error, or fail to lock the lid at all.
This assembly replaces the original lock and switch as a unit, so you do not have to diagnose which internal contact has failed. As a genuine OEM part, not an aftermarket equivalent, it matches the original factory fit and specification. It mounts on the washer cabinet with an electrical connector and is a straightforward repair, usually done in under an hour.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM WH08X37938 Lid Switch Assembly fixes a GE or Hotpoint top-load washer that won't start, stops mid-cycle, won't lock the lid, or shows a lid or door lock error because the lid lock is worn or has failed. Complete replacement lock and switch assembly, genuine OEM. Classic symptom: you close the lid and nothing happens, or the washer starts then stops and signals a lid or lock fault.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power and Shut Off Water Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before starting. Work gloves are recommended. Open the lid and, following your model's service guide, remove the top panel or cabinet section to reach the lid lock mounted on the cabinet. Note the position of the old assembly, disconnect its wiring connector, and remove the screws holding it in place. Fit the new assembly in the same position, secure it, and reconnect the connector. Reassemble the washer, restore power and water, and run a short cycle to confirm the lid locks, the washer starts, and the lid releases at the end.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer won't start with the lid closed. Is this the part I need?
A failed lid lock is a common cause. The control board won't start a cycle unless it sees the lid is closed and locked. Check that the lid closes fully and that nothing is blocking it. If it still won't start, the lid lock is a likely cause.
Is a lid switch the same as a lid lock?
On these washers, the lid switch and lock are combined in one assembly, which this part replaces.
My old part is marked WH08X32697 or WH08X31577. Will this work?
Those numbers are on the Replaces list. Compare the connector and mounting against your old part, or contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm.
Will this fit my front-load washer?
No. This is for top-load washers.
Is this an OEM part?
Yes. This is a genuine OEM GE part, not an aftermarket equivalent, so it matches the original factory fit and specification.
