Whirlpool Refrigerator ice bucket auger drive motor W11202789

Genuine Whirlpool OEM auger motor that drives the ice-bucket auger and pushes ice through the refrigerator dispenser chute.

Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Ice dispenser does not dispense ice while the ice maker continues producing ice.
• Auger motor is silent or fails to run when dispensing is commanded.
• Grinding, loud, or abnormal noise occurs from the ice-dispenser drive area.
• Ice dispensing is intermittent, slow, or weak when the auger motor is operating.

Check Before Replacing

• Remove the ice bucket and verify that the auger and bucket components are not jammed or frozen together; do not force them.
• With power disconnected, inspect the motor connector and visible wiring for loose connections or damage.
• If qualified to perform appliance electrical testing, check motor continuity against the applicable service information; lack of continuity supports a motor fault but does not by itself prove the complete dispenser circuit is defective.
• If the motor has the correct operating power during a dispense command but does not run, the motor is a likely fault; also consider the wiring, switches, control, and door harness before replacing it.
