Frigidaire Auger Motor 242221501 OEM Part

The Auger Motor serves as an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement component specifically designed for Frigidaire refrigerators, and it is also compatible with select models from Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore. This motor plays a crucial role in the functioning of the ice maker by powering the auger mechanism responsible for moving and dispensing ice.

Positioned within the freezer compartment, the auger motor may malfunction due to various factors. These include the deterioration of motor windings from continuous operation, compromised electrical connections, and blockages in the auger system that exert excessive strain on the motor.

Failure of the auger motor can result in the ice maker ceasing operation, generating a grinding noise, or experiencing jams and stalls in the auger mechanism. Additionally, this part is utilized in products marketed under the Sears-Kenmore brand, underscoring its wide applicability across different product ranges.
