241816602 Frigidaire Ice Dispenser Auger Drive Motor

The Frigidaire Ice Dispenser Auger Drive Motor is a standard OEM replacement part designed to facilitate the smooth release of ice from your refrigerator's ice maker. This motor is an essential component of the ice dispenser and auger assembly, interacting directly with the ice bucket. It activates when the ice dispenser lever is used, driving the ice auger to move and push ice cubes from the bucket, through the dispenser chute, and directly into a glass. Its primary function is to ensure a steady and reliable flow of ice cubes, enhancing the convenience of accessing ice for drinks and other cooling needs.

This specific motor is compatible with several brands and models, including Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore appliances.

Common issues that this part addresses include:
- Failure to dispense ice or only dispensing intermittently.
- Noticeable humming or buzzing sounds when dispensing ice.
- The ice auger failing to rotate or move upon activation of the dispenser.
