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.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water and Unplug Power Turn off the water supply to the refrigerator and unplug it before starting. 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.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. The thermistor location varies by model — it is typically clipped to a bracket on the interior side wall of the fresh food or freezer compartment, or mounted near the evaporator coil. Consult your model's parts diagram or service manual to confirm the exact location before disassembly. Open the sensor cover or unclip the sensor bracket, disconnect the wiring connector, and pull the old thermistor out. Insert the new 2188820 thermistor, reconnect the wiring connector, and snap the cover or bracket back into place. Ensure the sensor head is positioned close to the compartment wall and the wiring is not pinched. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator temperature over the next few hours to confirm stable, accurate cooling. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (for panel access on some models); no tools needed for sensor replacement itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 2188820 and WP2188820?
These are the same thermistor. WP2188820 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original 2188820. The 2213442 is also a cross-reference for the same part. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all three numbers.
What does an NTC thermistor do and how do I know if mine has failed?
An NTC thermistor is a resistor whose resistance decreases as temperature increases. The control board sends a small voltage through the thermistor and measures the resulting resistance — a lower resistance means warmer temperature, and a higher resistance means cooler temperature. The board uses this reading to decide when to run the compressor and fans. A failed thermistor either reads open circuit (no continuity), short circuit (zero resistance), or provides incorrect readings that cause the refrigerator to run too warm, too cold, or cycle erratically. Test with a multimeter at room temperature — a working 2188820 should read approximately 50K ohms at 25°C (77°F). Significant deviation indicates failure.
How do I know if my refrigerator uses the WISE system?
The WISE (Whirlpool Intelligent Smart Energy) system was introduced on newer Whirlpool refrigerator models and uses a different thermistor specification that is not interchangeable with the 2188820. Models that use the WISE system are typically marked in the product documentation or on the control board. The easiest way to confirm compatibility is to verify your model number with our support team before ordering, or check whether WP2188820 appears in your model's official parts diagram. If your parts diagram lists WP2188820, this replacement is compatible.
Where is the thermistor located in my refrigerator?
The thermistor location varies by model and brand. On Whirlpool and KitchenAid models, it is commonly found on the interior side wall of the fresh food compartment clipped to a plastic housing. On some models it is located near the evaporator coil behind the freezer back panel. On Kenmore 106 series models, it may be on the fresh food section wall or inside the back panel. Consult your specific model's parts diagram or search for a model-specific installation video to locate the sensor before disassembling the refrigerator.
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 with an NTC thermistor rated to the same 50K ohm specification as the original WP2188820 to match the performance and accuracy of the factory sensor.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Let The Old Bulb Cool First Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. If the dryer was recently run, allow the bulb to cool before touching it. Locate the light fixture inside the top section of the dryer interior. Unscrew the old bulb by turning it three to four turns to release it from the socket. When installing the new bulb, it cannot be screwed straight in — lean it at roughly a 45-degree angle to engage the socket threads, then turn it to seat and tighten. Avoid touching the glass directly with bare fingers if possible, since oils can shorten bulb life. Restore power and open the dryer door to confirm the light turns on. Tools needed: none.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why won't the new bulb screw in straight?
This is normal for this fixture — the socket is angled, so the bulb needs to go in at roughly a 45-degree tilt to catch the threads properly rather than straight on. Once you find that angle, it threads in and seats normally.
Do I need any tools to replace this bulb?
No. This is a simple screw-in bulb replacement with no tools required — just unplug the dryer, unscrew the old bulb, and screw in the new one at the correct angle.
The light still doesn't work after I replaced the bulb. What else could it be?
If a new bulb doesn't resolve the issue, check the door switch that controls the light circuit, and confirm the socket and wiring aren't damaged. These are separate components from the bulb itself and would need to be diagnosed independently.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the wattage, voltage, base type, and dimensions of the original WE05X20431 bulb used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, Whirlpool, and Kenmore dryers.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator and Move Perishable Food Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The evaporator fan motor is located behind the rear access panel inside the freezer compartment. Remove the freezer shelves and any internal components blocking access to the rear panel. Remove the screws holding the rear access panel to expose the evaporator coils and fan motor (a 1/4" hex driver is commonly needed). Photograph the wire connections and fan blade orientation before disconnecting. Disconnect the wire harness connector from the old motor. Note the orientation of the fan blade on the motor shaft and the position of the two rubber mounting grommets — both must be transferred to the new motor. Remove the mounting screws or release the motor from its bracket, and pull the old motor free. Transfer the rubber grommets and fan blade (if not pre-installed) to the new 2315539 motor in the same orientation. Install the new motor in the same position, reconnect the wire harness, and reinstall the access panel and shelves. Plug the refrigerator back in and allow several hours for the unit to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. Tools needed: 1/4" hex driver, Phillips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My freezer is making loud noise — is it the evaporator fan motor?
Yes, this is the most recognizable symptom of a failed evaporator fan motor on Whirlpool-platform refrigerators. When the motor's bearings wear out, it produces loud humming, whining, grinding, or scraping noises during operation. The noise often varies as the fan speed changes or as ice builds up around the fan blade. To confirm, unplug the refrigerator and access the fan behind the rear freezer panel — try turning the blade by hand. If it doesn't spin freely, is stiff, or seizes, the motor bearing has failed and needs replacement.
My freezer is cold but my fridge is warm — could this be the cause?
Yes — on many Whirlpool-platform refrigerators, the freezer's evaporator fan motor is responsible for circulating cool air from the freezer evaporator into the fresh food compartment as well. When this fan fails, the freezer's own compartment may stay cold because the cold air is generated right there, but the fresh food section warms up because no air is being moved into it. If your fridge is warm while the freezer remains cold, this is a likely cause — especially if you also hear unusual noise from the freezer area or see ice buildup on the evaporator coils.
What is the difference between 2315539 and WP2315539?
These are the same evaporator fan motor. WP2315539 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original 2315539. The 2219689, 2225625, W10438708, and ESF-U2B are also cross-references for this same motor across various Whirlpool catalog revisions and production runs. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all of these numbers.
Why do I need to transfer the rubber grommets from the old motor?
The two rubber grommets seat between the motor housing and the mounting bracket inside the refrigerator. They isolate the motor from the cabinet to dampen vibration and reduce noise during operation, and they also keep the motor properly positioned in its mount. The new 2315539 typically ships without these grommets — they are reused from the old motor. Remove them carefully from the old motor before discarding it, and slide them onto the new motor in the same positions. Without the grommets, the motor may run noisily or vibrate excessively.
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 dimensions, electrical specifications (115V AC, 60Hz, clockwise rotation), incorporated wire harness, and function of the original WP2315539/2315539 evaporator fan motor.

WR60X31997 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Ice Box Fan Motor
The WR60X31997 is a genuine GE OEM ice box fan motor assembly for GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café refrigerators. This motor is situated in the freezer section and circulates cold air specifically around the ice box area, playing a direct role in ice production as well as general cooling and airflow in that part of the freezer. Consistent airflow here is what keeps the ice maker producing normally and prevents warm spots from developing nearby.
Rated 12V DC, 0.23A. Common causes of failure include a malfunctioning motor, worn-out bushings that hinder smooth rotation, or damaged fan blades that restrict airflow; mineral buildup can also gradually degrade the fan's efficiency over time. A failing ice box fan produces a recognizable set of symptoms: reduced or inadequate ice production, items in the freezer warming up or defrosting even with the door shut, unusual sounds or vibration when the fan runs, or uneven frost patterns suggesting the airflow in that area isn't circulating properly. It directly replaces PD00071430, 4964240, AP6978662, PS12744140, and EAP12744140.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. 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.

Allow the refrigerator several hours to cool after restoring power.
Frequently Asked Questions
My refrigerator isn't cooling and the compressor clicks. Is this the part I need?
A failed start relay and overload is a common cause of a clicking compressor that won't start. With the refrigerator unplugged, you can test the relay for continuity. A failed compressor or a failed run capacitor can look similar.
What does this part do?
It helps the compressor start by regulating the current sent to it at startup, and it protects the compressor from overload while it runs.
Do I need to open the sealed refrigerant system?
No. The relay plugs onto the compressor terminals from the outside, and the refrigerant lines are not touched.
Will this fit my refrigerator?
It is listed for many GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, and RCA refrigerators, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator and Move Perishable Food Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator and safely store any food that could spoil while the power is off. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The evaporator fan motor for the fresh food section is mounted on the back wall of the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment, behind an access panel. Take a photo of the existing fan position and wire harness routing before disconnecting. Remove the shelves and any internal components blocking access to the back wall, then remove the screws holding the rear access panel in place. Disconnect the fan motor's wire harness connector and remove the mounting screws securing the old motor. Note the fan blade orientation on the motor shaft. Install the new WR60X26866 motor assembly in the same position with the blade facing the same direction, reconnect the wiring harness, and reinstall the mounting screws and access panel. Replace the shelves and other internal components, restore power, and confirm the fan spins and the refrigerator cools properly. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its set temperature before reloading with food. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My fridge is warm but my freezer is cold — is the evaporator fan motor the problem?
Yes — this is one of the most recognizable symptoms of evaporator fan motor failure on GE French door refrigerators with a separate fresh food evaporator. The freezer side has its own cooling circuit and remains cold, while the fresh food side relies on this fan to circulate air across its evaporator coils. When the fan fails, the freezer continues working but the fresh food compartment loses its cold air supply, warming up while the freezer stays at temperature. If you also notice frost building up on the evaporator coils behind the back panel of the fresh food compartment, the fan failure is confirmed.
What is the software update requirement for May 2014 – March 2015 refrigerators?
GE issued a software update for certain refrigerators manufactured between May 2014 and March 2015 (serial range FF–HD) before they could properly support newer revisions of the WR60X26866 evaporator fan motor. If your refrigerator falls in this date and serial range, the control software must be updated before installing this fan motor — either by GE factory service or by using the Software Update Module part WR98R882802. Installing the new fan on an unupdated unit can result in improper performance. Check the serial number plate inside your refrigerator (typically on the left side wall) to confirm whether your unit is affected. Refrigerators built outside this range do not require the update.
How do I test if the evaporator fan motor has failed?
Unplug the refrigerator, then access the fan behind the rear panel of the fresh food compartment. First, try turning the fan blade by hand — if it doesn't spin freely, is stiff, or seizes, the motor bearing has failed. Next, listen during normal operation — if the motor is unusually noisy or makes a grinding sound, the bearings are worn even if it still spins. Finally, with the unit unplugged and the motor disconnected, use a multimeter on the motor windings to check for continuity. If the windings show no continuity, the motor has failed electrically. Also check for approximately 11–14V DC at the connector when the refrigerator is running — if voltage is present but the motor doesn't spin, the motor has failed.
My fridge has two evaporator fans — which one does this replace?
Some GE French door refrigerators have separate evaporator fan motors for the freezer and the fresh food sections. The WR60X26866 is the fresh food evaporator fan motor — it's the axial fan located behind the rear panel of the fresh food compartment, not in the freezer. If your symptom is "freezer cold, fridge warm," this is the correct part. If your symptom is "freezer warm" or "ice maker not making ice but fridge is fine," the freezer evaporator fan motor (a different part number) is more likely the cause. Confirm which compartment has the cooling problem before ordering.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is the exact same axial evaporator fan motor installed in compatible GE, GE Café, and GE Profile French door refrigerators from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
