Product Description
Restore the proper water supply to your refrigerator’s dispenser or ice maker with this genuine OEM water line tube, part number 218976409. This precision-molded plastic tube is designed for compatible models under the Frigidaire / Electrolux family (and affiliated brands) that originally used this fill line. Because water-line assemblies can vary by model, liner type and door style, please check with your maintenance technician prior to ordering to ensure fitment and compatibility.

Replacing this part helps fix issues such as reduced water flow, dispenser leaks or ice-maker failures due to kinked or deteriorating tubing.
Features & Benefits
-
OEM fit for water delivery: Designed to match the original tubing spec for models that call for part 218976409—no generic “one-size” adaptation. Frigidaire Appliance Parts+1
-
Durable plastic construction: Built to withstand constant exposure to cold temperatures, moisture and light flexing inside the cabinet.
-
Restores proper water flow: Ideal when the original tube is cracked, kinked, discoloured or leaking, helping to ensure the ice maker and dispenser function correctly.
-
Minimizes service calls: By replacing the tubing proactively you avoid downtime, intermittent faults or damage to other components (valves, filters) caused by improper water supply.
-
Straightforward installation: Often requires only basic tools and technician access—simply remove old tubing, route new tube and secure with clips/connectors.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement Is Needed
-
Sparse or no water flow from the dispenser though water supply to the house is confirmed.
-
Ice maker produces few cubes or stops filling altogether, and the valve & filter appear fine.
-
Visible damage: kinked, crushed or discoloured tube between the valve and dispenser/ice maker.
-
Water pooling or leaking inside the refrigerator compartment or at the dispenser area.
-
Frequent service calls for water flow issues where the tubing is the only suspect item left.
-
Installation of new valve/filter did not resolve dispenser/ice maker performance—indicating the tube may be the weak link.
Compatible Models (Partial List)
This tube is compatible with many Frigidaire / Electrolux / Kenmore / Gibson etc. refrigerators that list part number 218976409 (or equivalents) in their parts breakdown. Example fitments include models in which the original house water supply line runs behind the door liner or bottom of the cabinet. (Exact compatibility should always be verified against your refrigerator’s model number plate and existing tubing routing.) Home Depot Appliance Repair+1

Compatibility Notes
-
Confirm that your existing water line’s path, connector type and length match this replacement—some units may require additional clips or extension.
-
Because tubing is part of the dispenser / ice-maker system, the valve, filter and internal tubing should be inspected concurrently; replacing the tube alone may not solve underlying issues if the valve or filter is faulty.
-
Ensure the water supply is turned off and depressurized before replacing to avoid leaks or flooding.
-
Because this part is inside the refrigerator or behind the liner, recommended to have your maintenance technician verify routing and secure fastening to avoid vibration or abrasion damage.
-
Installation does not address electrical issues, refrigerant or cooling failures—only the water supply path.
