Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker Kit (W11762633) (Replaces W11459724)

The Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker Kit is an assembly that produces and ejects ice cubes in a compatible Whirlpool refrigerator. It fills the mold with water, freezes it, then cycles a heater and ejector to release the cubes into the bin. It also signals for more water through the fill circuit during the harvest cycle. Important Compatibility Note: Part number W11762633 is the current manufacturer-approved replacement for the following discontinued part number(s): W11459724. If your appliance documentation or old part uses any of these numbers, this is the correct, updated component for your repair. Common failures include wear in the ejector motor or internal gears, a failed mold heater, sticking or damaged ejector components, or electrical faults in the module that controls the harvest cycle. Mineral buildup and low water flow can also contribute to poor fills and irregular cube formation. Use these symptoms to help decide if this part matches your issue: No ice production even though the freezer is cold enough Ice maker cycles inconsistently or stops partway through a cycle Ejector arms do not move, stall, or click repeatedly Ice cubes are stuck in the mold or only partially eject Hollow, small, or misshapen cubes due to irregular filling during the cycle Water enters the mold at the wrong time or overfills during a cycle
