241798231 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Ice Maker The 241798231 is a genuine Frigidaire OEM ice maker assembly for Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Tappan, and Westinghouse refrigerators. This 8-cube ice maker receives water from the refrigerator's water inlet valve, holds it in a mold, and freezes it into cubes. Once frozen, an internal mechanism ejects the cubes into the ice bucket below, and the cycle repeats automatically until the bucket is full — at which point a bail arm or sensor tells the ice maker to stop producing more. This assembly ships complete with its cover, wire harness, bail arm, and installation hardware, terminating in a 5-pin connector for a direct plug-in fit. Measuring approximately 11-3/4"L x 4-5/8"W x 4-3/4"H, with a harness and plug that run about 18" and a bail arm measuring 9-3/8"L x 1/8"W x 4-1/8"H. Over time, the plastic mold where the ice cubes actually form can flake, crack, or corrode, and internal mechanical components can wear out or fail electrically. If your ice maker's mold shows flaking or corrosion, or the unit has simply stopped producing ice, it's time for a new assembly rather than attempting a partial repair.

Wear work gloves. Open the freezer door and locate the ice maker assembly, typically mounted to the freezer wall or door depending on your model. Remove the ice bucket to improve access. Photograph the wiring harness connection before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws securing the ice maker to the wall, then disconnect the wire harness connector and any water line connection feeding the unit. Remove the old ice maker fully. Install the new 241798231 assembly in the same mounting position, reconnect the wire harness connector, and reconnect the water line if applicable. Secure the mounting screws, reinstall the ice bucket, and restore the water supply and power. Allow several hours for the first cycle to complete and confirm ice is being produced and ejected into the bucket normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My ice maker's mold looks flaky or corroded. Should I replace the whole assembly? Yes. The ice mold is not a separately serviceable component on this assembly — if it's flaking, cracking, or corroded, that's a sign the assembly has reached the end of its service life and the complete unit should be replaced rather than repaired. My ice maker runs but never stops, or never seems to sense a full bucket. What does that mean? This can point to a failure in the bail arm or the internal sensing mechanism that tells the ice maker the bucket is full and it's time to pause production. Since the bail arm is included with this complete assembly, replacing the whole unit resolves this along with any other underlying cycling issues, rather than trying to source and repair that mechanism separately. The listing says this isn't a universal part even though it has a long cross-reference list. What does that mean for me? The long list of replaced part numbers reflects that this same physical assembly has been sold under many different numbers over the years and across related brands (Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, and others built on the same Frigidaire platform) — it does not mean this ice maker fits every refrigerator. Always confirm your specific model number before ordering, since visually similar ice makers can differ in ways that affect fit. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same mold design, wire harness, bail arm, and mounting configuration as the ice maker assembly originally installed in your refrigerator.

WPW10190981 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker The WPW10190981 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM ice maker assembly for Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, and Amana French door refrigerators. This assembly receives water from the refrigerator's water inlet, holds it in the ice mold until it freezes, then uses a heating element to loosen the finished ice from the mold and automatically eject it — a rotating arm pushes the ice into the storage bin, and the cycle repeats until the bin is full. This is a modular-style assembly, and it does not include a new cover, ice level arm, or wire harness — these three components must be reused from your existing ice maker. If the coating on your current ice maker's mold is flaking off, or if internal components are no longer functioning correctly, replacing the assembly resolves both problems together. It directly replaces W10122533 and W10190981. Quick Answer The WPW10190981 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, and Amana French door refrigerators that have stopped making ice, are producing less ice than usual, or have a mold with flaking coating.

Wear work gloves. Move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Open the freezer door and remove the ice bucket or drawer to access the ice maker. Photograph the wiring harness connection and the position of the cover and ice level arm before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws securing the old ice maker in place, then disconnect the wire harness connector. Before setting the old ice maker aside, remove its cover, ice level arm, and wire harness — none of these three components are included with this replacement assembly, and you'll need to transfer all of them onto the new WPW10190981. Attach the cover, ice level arm, and wire harness from your old ice maker onto the new assembly, making sure each is seated and connected correctly. Mount the new assembly in the same position, reconnect the wire harness connector, and secure the mounting screws. Reinstall the ice bucket or drawer. Restore power and allow several hours for the first cycle to complete, confirming ice is being produced and ejected normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Does this ice maker come complete and ready to install? Not entirely — this assembly does not include a new cover, ice level arm, or wire harness. You'll need to remove these three components from your existing ice maker and transfer them onto this new assembly during installation, since only the ice maker body itself is included. My ice mold's coating is flaking. Should I replace the whole assembly? Yes. The mold coating isn't a separately serviceable part — if it's flaking off, replacing the complete ice maker assembly is the correct fix, since a damaged coating can affect ice quality and won't improve on its own. Is this a difficult repair? It's considered a moderate repair requiring basic hand tools, some disassembly of the refrigerator, and novice repair experience. The extra step of transferring the cover, ice level arm, and wire harness from your old unit adds a bit more care to the process compared to a fully complete replacement assembly, but it's manageable for a confident DIYer. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original mold design, heating element, and cycling mechanism of the ice maker originally installed in your refrigerator.

Genuine OEM WPW10238100 Refrigerator Water Valve The WPW10238100 is a genuine OEM single primary water inlet valve from Whirlpool for Whirlpool-built refrigerators sold under the Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Inglis, and Ikea names. The valve is an electrically operated solenoid that opens to let water from the household supply line into the refrigerator's water system, and closes to stop it. When the valve fails, the refrigerator can stop supplying water to the dispenser and ice maker, make little or no ice, leak, or, if it no longer shuts off, overfill the ice maker and build up ice and frost. This is a genuine OEM part, not an aftermarket equivalent, so the fit and operation match the original. It is a simple repair for most owners, typically 15–30 minutes. Some refrigerators also use a separate dual-solenoid valve, so check the Compatibility note before ordering. Quick Answer The Genuine OEM WPW10238100 Water Valve fixes a Whirlpool-built refrigerator with no water at the dispenser, little or no ice, an overflowing ice maker, or a leak caused by a failed water inlet valve. Single primary water inlet valve, genuine OEM from Whirlpool. Classic symptom: the dispenser gives little or no water and the ice maker isn't making ice, even though the water supply is on. Common Problems This Part Fixes Water dispenser not working, or giving only a trickle Ice maker not making ice Ice maker overflowing, with ice or frost buildup Water leaking from the refrigerator Valve making noise or not shutting off properly Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item. Replaces Part Numbers This water valve replaces the following part numbers: WPW10238100, W10238100, W10498992, IMV-8100, K-78199, AP6017532, AWP50143, EAP11750831, PD00002616, PS11750831 These are Whirlpool's un-prefixed and earlier numbers for this valve. If your old valve or parts diagram shows any of them, match against this list. Compatibility This valve is listed for refrigerators from the Whirlpool family of brands: Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Inglis, and Ikea Kenmore, including models such as 10641162310, 10651132210, and 10651149110 Other models include ISC21CNEDS00, KRSC503ESS00, KSC24C8EYY02, and WRF560SEHZ00 Note: This is a single primary water inlet valve. Some refrigerators use a separate dual-solenoid valve for the ice maker and dispenser, which is a different part.

Following your model's service guide, pull the refrigerator out and remove the rear access panel to reach the valve. Disconnect the water lines from the old valve, and the wiring connector from its solenoid, then remove the mounting screws. Install the new valve in the same position, reconnect the wiring and water lines securely, and replace the panel. Restore water and power, check every connection for leaks, and run water through the dispenser for a few minutes to flush the line. The valve needs at least 20 psi of water pressure to shut off properly, so if the ice maker still overflows, check the supply pressure. Frequently Asked Questions My dispenser has no water and the ice maker isn't working. Is this the part I need? It can be. Before replacing the valve, check that the water supply is on, the supply line isn't kinked, and the water filter isn't clogged. If those are fine, a failed water inlet valve is a likely cause. My ice maker is overflowing. Could it be the valve? Yes. A valve that doesn't shut off fully will keep letting water in. Also confirm your water pressure is at least 20 psi, since low pressure can stop the valve from closing properly. My refrigerator has a dual-solenoid valve. Will this work? No. This is a single primary valve, and the dual-solenoid valve is a different part. Check your parts diagram or contact our support team with your model number. Is this an OEM part? Yes. This is a genuine OEM Whirlpool part, not an aftermarket equivalent, so it matches the original factory fit and specification.

AJU34125552 Genuine OEM LG Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve The AJU34125552 is a genuine LG OEM water inlet valve for LG refrigerators, supplying water to both the ice maker and the door water dispenser from a single valve assembly. Mounted at the rear of the refrigerator where the household water supply line connects, this valve opens on command from the control board to admit water for either feature, and closes again once the request is satisfied. Common causes of failure include mineral and sediment buildup from hard water interfering with the internal solenoid over time, and general electrical wear. A failing valve typically shows up as the ice maker no longer producing ice, the water dispenser slowing down or stopping entirely, or both symptoms appearing together since one valve serves both functions. Quick Answer The AJU34125552 Genuine OEM LG Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve fixes LG refrigerators where the ice maker stopped making ice, the water dispenser isn't working, water flow is slow, or there's a leak near the valve at the back of the refrigerator. Supplies both the ice maker and dispenser from one valve. Common Problems This Part Fixes Ice maker has stopped making ice, or is producing less ice than usual Water dispenser on the refrigerator door isn't working or has slowed down Both the ice maker and water dispenser affected together Slow water flow at the dispenser Water leaking near the valve at the back of the refrigerator No water or ice production at all Valve failure following known hard water conditions at the home Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models.

We were not able to confirm additional cross-reference or superseding part numbers for this specific part number from reliable sources at the time this page was built, so none are listed here rather than guessed. If you have a cross-reference number for your appliance, contact our support team and we will verify compatibility before you order. Compatibility This water inlet valve is compatible with select LG refrigerators. Note: A specific verified compatible model list was not available at the time this page was built. LG has used several visually similar water inlet valve part numbers across different refrigerator platforms, and parts that look identical can have small but important differences. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number and we will confirm fitment before you purchase. Key Features Genuine LG OEM part — factory-specified solenoid design and flow-rate calibration Single valve assembly supplies water to both the ice maker and door water dispenser Resolves "ice maker not making ice," "dispenser not working," "slow water flow," and "leak near the valve" symptoms caused by valve failure Genuine OEM replacement — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance DIY-friendly repair — typically 15 to 30 minutes Product Specifications Part Number AJU34125552 Part Type Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve (Ice Maker + Dispenser) Condition Genuine OEM Brand LG Location Rear of refrigerator, at the household water line connection Function Supplies water to the ice maker and door water dispenser Repair Difficulty Easy — 15 to 30 minutes Quantity 1 valve assembly Compatible Brand LG Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Store Perishable Food Separately Shut off the water supply and unplug the refrigerator before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Pull the refrigerator away from the wall for access, then locate the valve at the rear of the cabinet where the water supply line connects. Photograph the wiring harness and water line connections before disconnecting anything. On some installations, the wiring harness has been routed between water supply lines, which can make the connector difficult to reach and unplug — if this is the case, gently reposition or loosen a water line first rather than forcing the connector. Disconnect the water supply line from the old valve, disconnect the electrical connector, and remove the mounting screws holding the valve in place, then pull it free. Install the new AJU34125552 in the same position, secure the mounting screws, and reconnect the electrical connector fully — route the wiring the same way the original was routed, avoiding pinch points against the water lines if possible. Reattach the water supply line, tightening securely by hand plus a partial turn with pliers. Restore the water supply and check for leaks before restoring power. Push the refrigerator back into place and test both the ice maker and water dispenser over the following day to confirm normal operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, adjustable wrench or pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My ice maker and dispenser both stopped working at the same time. Is that normal for a valve failure? Yes, this is actually a very telling symptom. Because one valve assembly supplies water to both the ice maker and the door dispenser, a failure inside the valve itself commonly affects both functions simultaneously. If only one of the two has stopped working while the other functions normally, it's worth double-checking the water filter and supply line for a localized restriction before assuming the valve has failed, but a simultaneous failure of both points strongly toward this valve. The wiring harness on my old valve was hard to reach. Is that normal? It can be, depending on how the original installation routed the wiring. Some installations run the harness between two water supply lines, which can make the connector awkward to access and unplug. If you find yourself in this situation, gently repositioning or loosening a nearby water line first — rather than forcing the connector — makes it much easier to disconnect without damaging anything. Could hard water be why my valve failed? Yes, this is a common and well-documented cause. Mineral deposits from hard water can build up inside the valve over time and interfere with the internal solenoid's ability to open and close properly, eventually leading to failure. If you know your home has hard water and this valve has failed, it may be worth considering a water softener or more frequent filter changes to extend the life of the replacement. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same solenoid design and dual-function (ice maker and dispenser) configuration as the water inlet valve originally installed in your refrigerator.

Wear work gloves. Access the ice box fan by locating the panel or housing covering it in the freezer's ice box area — this may require removing the ice maker or nearby components for clearance depending on your model. Photograph the wiring and the fan blade's orientation before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the motor's wiring harness connector, remove the mounting screws or clips holding the motor bracket in place, and pull the motor and fan blade assembly free. Mount the new WR60X31997 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector, and confirm the blade spins freely by hand without contacting the housing before reassembling any panels or components you removed for access. Restore power and monitor ice production and freezer temperature over the next 24 hours to confirm normal operation has returned. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My ice maker is producing less ice than usual. Could this fan be the cause? Yes, this is one of the more common symptoms of a failing ice box fan. Since this fan circulates cold air specifically around the ice box area, reduced airflow from a struggling or seized motor can directly slow down ice production, even if the rest of the freezer seems to be cooling normally. Items near the ice box seem to be warming up even though the freezer door is shut. Is that related? Yes. If this fan isn't circulating air properly, the area around the ice box can lose consistent cooling even while the rest of the freezer stays cold, since that zone depends specifically on this fan for airflow. This localized warming, paired with reduced ice production, is a strong combined signal pointing to this fan. Is this the same as a general evaporator fan motor? No, this is a distinct component. The ice box fan motor circulates air specifically around the ice box area to support ice production and nearby cooling, while a general evaporator fan motor circulates air across the evaporator coil for the freezer and fresh food compartments more broadly. The two serve different roles and are not interchangeable — always confirm which fan your model needs using your parts diagram or model number. 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 matches the original motor design, blade fitment, and mounting configuration of the ice box fan motor originally installed in your refrigerator.

This kit uses an infrared beam between an emitter and receiver board to sense the level of ice in the ice bucket, signaling the ice maker to produce more ice when the level drops and to stop when the bucket is full. Weighs approximately 0.23 lbs. Common causes of failure include electrical problems, general wear and tear, or damage from power surges or short circuits. Symptoms of a failing ice level control board include the ice maker not producing ice, the ice maker not stopping production when full, irregular or inconsistent ice production, or error codes related to the ice maker control system. It directly replaces W11629974, W10757851, 4389102, 2198585, 2198586, 2220398, 2220402, 2255114, 4388635, 4389102R, W10193666, W10193840, W10290817, W11553040, W11553041, AP7205486, AWP45901, EAP16875489, PD00086112, PS16875489. Quick Answer The Choice 4389102 Refrigerator Ice Level Control Board fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore refrigerators where the ice maker isn't producing ice, won't stop when full, or produces ice inconsistently.

Wear work gloves. Before installing this kit, confirm the boards are actually at fault: with the refrigerator still plugged in, check the status light on the control board — it should blink twice, pause, then repeat during normal operation. With the freezer door open, hold down the flapper door on the left side to block the optics beam; the LED should light up and stay on with no blinks. If it continues to blink twice instead, the optics control board has failed. If there's no LED light at all, hold down the freezer light switch — the LED should flash every second while in harvest mode; if it doesn't light up, the board has failed. Once confirmed, unplug the refrigerator, locate the emitter and receiver boards near the ice bucket opening in the freezer door, and disconnect their wiring. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the old boards and take them out. Install both new boards from this kit in the same positions, reconnect the wiring fully, and secure the mounting hardware. Restore power and monitor ice production over the next day or two to confirm normal operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My ice maker stopped making ice. Is this the part I need? Possibly, but control boards are commonly misdiagnosed. Before replacing this board, check more commonly defective parts first — such as the water inlet valve, ice maker assembly itself, or the freezer temperature. If you've ruled those out and the other components are working properly, this control board is a reasonable next step. How can I confirm this board has actually failed before replacing it? Check the LED status light's blink pattern. During normal operation it should blink twice, pause, then repeat. With the freezer door open, hold down the flapper door on the left side to block the beam — the light should turn solid with no blinking. If it keeps blinking twice instead, or doesn't light up at all when it should be in harvest mode (checked by holding the freezer light switch), the board has failed. Do I need to replace just the emitter or receiver, or both? Both. This kit includes a matched emitter and receiver board, and both need to be replaced together as a pair rather than swapping just one side. What does "Choice" mean for this part? Choice parts are manufactured by an independent supplier, different from the appliance's original manufacturer, and built to equivalent fit, form, and function specifications. This gives you a dependable, lower-cost alternative to a Genuine OEM part, distinct from our OE parts, which are sourced from the same supplier as the original manufacturer.

Pull the refrigerator away from the wall to access the back lower panel — remove the panel screws to expose the water inlet valve. Photograph the wiring harness connections and water tube connections before disconnecting. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the 1/4" supply line from the valve inlet — use an adjustable wrench, as some compression fittings may be stuck. Squeeze the plastic retaining clips on the outlet tube fittings and pull the internal water tubes free. Disconnect the wiring harness. Unscrew the mounting bracket and remove the old valve. Install the new W10498976 valve with its bracket, reconnect the internal water tubes (push until they click), reconnect the wire harness and supply line. Restore water supply and power. Run a water dispenser test and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, adjustable wrench, needle-nose pliers. Frequently Asked Questions What does the refrigerator water inlet valve do? The water inlet valve is an electrically controlled solenoid valve that opens on command from the refrigerator's control board to allow household water pressure to push water through to the ice maker fill tube or the water dispenser. When the ice maker calls for water or you press the dispenser lever, the board sends voltage to the solenoid coil, which opens the valve. When the demand is satisfied, the voltage stops, the spring closes the valve, and water flow stops. A failed solenoid coil — or a valve seat clogged with mineral deposits — prevents the valve from opening or closing correctly, causing no water, weak water, overflow, or dripping. What is the difference between W10498976 and WPW10498976? These are the same water inlet valve. WPW10498976 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original W10498976. The W10420082 and W10498974 are also cross-references for this same valve from earlier production runs. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all of these numbers. How do I know if the water inlet valve has failed vs. something else? First confirm the household water supply valve behind the refrigerator is fully open and the supply line is not kinked. Then check the water filter — a clogged filter is one of the most common causes of weak or no water flow and is mistaken for a valve failure. If both supply pressure and the filter are good, test the valve's solenoid coil with a multimeter — a working coil reads 200–500 ohms of resistance; an open circuit confirms failure. If the solenoid tests good but the valve still does not open when the control board sends voltage, the valve seat may be physically clogged with mineral deposits and the valve needs to be replaced. My ice maker is not working but my water dispenser is fine — is it the valve? Possibly — but if the water dispenser works normally, the main valve solenoid is likely functioning. On some refrigerator configurations, the ice maker and the dispenser are controlled by separate solenoid ports on the valve assembly. If only the ice maker port has failed, the dispenser can continue working while ice production stops. Test the ice maker solenoid coil separately. However, a more common cause of ice maker failure with a working dispenser is the ice maker module, freezer temperature, or ice maker shut-off arm — rule out those causes before replacing the valve. 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 from plastic and metal to match the electrical specifications and dimensions of the original WPW10498976 water inlet valve assembly.
