Whirlpool Broken Tab Ice Door Kit 8201756 OEM Part

Whirlpool is responsible for producing items for a variety of brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral, as well as products for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. One key product, the Broken Tab Ice Door Kit, is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part specifically crafted for Whirlpool refrigerators. This comprehensive kit provides all necessary components to repair or replace the ice door chute, facilitating the transfer of ice from the maker to either the ice bucket or directly to the user. Ensuring the ice door chute seals effectively is essential to block warm air entry, which could otherwise lead to frost and ice buildup.

Indicators of a malfunctioning or damaged ice door chute are:

- Accumulation of ice around the dispenser chute
- Frost development in the freezer compartment
- Infiltration of warm air into the freezer, causing temperature fluctuations
- Inadequate or obstructed closing of the ice door
- Unusual sounds emanating from the dispenser area

A damaged ice door chute might arise from normal wear, physical impact, improper handling, or the gradual decline of sealing parts.

This OEM part is compatible with select models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore. It is advisable to use this kit if the ice door mounting tabs are damaged or detached from the dispenser wall. It is suitable for models featuring ice door WP2180353 or ice door kit W10823377.
