Whirlpool Ice Bin (W10558424)

The Whirlpool Ice Bin stores and holds ice produced by the refrigerator’s ice maker. It sits in the freezer and positions ice so it can be dispensed into a glass or scooped out by hand. It also helps guide ice toward the auger and chute so the dispenser can move ice out of the door. Common causes of failure include cracks from impact, warping from temperature swings, and wear at the mounting points that support the bin. Ice clumps can also stress the bin and its interfaces. A damaged bin can shift out of place, leak ice into the freezer, or keep the dispenser parts from lining up. These symptoms can help you decide if replacing the ice bin may resolve the issue: Ice spills into the freezer instead of staying in the bin. The bin is cracked, chipped, or has broken tabs or guides. The bin will not seat fully or feels loose when installed. The ice dispenser runs but little or no ice comes out. Ice jams at the chute or the auger area because the bin does not align. The bin is difficult to remove or install due to warping or deformation.
