Description
Restore the automatic ice production function of your refrigerator with the genuine OEM "Whirlpool 8201515 Ice Maker Motor Control Module". This module is the electronic and mechanical "head" of the ice maker assembly. It controls the timing of the water fill, heating the mold, and ejecting the ice cubes. A defective module is a common cause of ice maker failure, unusual noises, or the mold failing to turn.
Features & Benefits
- Genuine Whirlpool OEM quality ensures reliable electronic cycling and mechanical ejection of ice.
- Controls the entire ice-making process, including water fill, harvest, and ejection.
- Includes the motor and gear mechanism necessary to drive the ejector arm (ejector arm often sold separately or transferred).
- Resolves issues where the ice maker is not making ice, not ejecting ice, or making unusual noises.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
- Ice maker fails to produce ice, despite the water line being clear.
- The ejector arm or ice mold is stuck, or the module is making a grinding/clicking sound.
- Ice is making a full sheet instead of individual cubes (often indicating a timing or cycle failure).
- The water fill tube is overflowing, as the module failed to properly manage the water inlet valve.

Compatibility Note
This module is a replacement for the head unit of some 8-cube ice makers. Always check the freezer temperature (should be 0°F or colder) and the water inlet valve before replacing the module. This part typically includes the motor and gear mechanism, but often requires transferring the existing ejector arm and bail wire.
