Is This the Right Part?
✅ Cross Reference Information
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.
