Description
Restore reliable ice dispensing and smooth auger operation with the genuine OEM auger kit W10422851 from Whirlpool. This kit is designed to rotate the ice as it moves from the ice container into the dispenser chute — a key component in ice-making and dispensing systems.
Because auger kits differ by model, please check with your maintenance technician to confirm the part number matches your appliance’s full model number and that the auger is indeed the cause of the issue. kitchenaidparts.com+2applianceparts.lowes.com+2

Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
Ice dispenser motor sounds like it's running, but no ice is dispensed (augur may be turning without moving ice).
-
Auger spins freely or moves erratically, the ice bucket doesn’t rotate correctly.
-
Ice jams in the ice bucket or dispenser chute, or you need to tap or shake the bucket to get ice.
-
Ice cubes coming out when dispenser is activated are mushy, crushed incorrectly, or inconsistent in size—indicating the auger isn't properly driving the ice.
If you observe any of these symptoms, have your maintenance technician verify that the auger kit is the root cause before ordering.

Compatibility Notes
-
Matching the full model number of your refrigerator is essential — similar models may use different auger kits depending on dispenser style.
-
Replacing the auger kit only addresses auger-drive issues; if the dispenser motor, ice bucket, coupler, or chute are damaged, those may also need attention.
-
Installation requires power off, removal of the ice bucket/dispenser area, replacement of the auger kit, re-assembly, and testing of the dispenser function.
-
After installation, test the dispenser through several cycles to confirm ice is properly delivered and no jamming occurs.
