Ice bucket cracked or not dispensing?

The bucket collects ice from the ice maker and stores it until you need it. In fridges with a dispenser, the bucket usually works with an auger that pushes ice towards the chute. A cracked bucket can leak meltwater that refreezes, jam the ice, or let the auger mechanism slip. Other signs are ice clumping into a solid block, a broken front or handle, or a bucket that won't seat properly. Long periods without using ice can also cause clumping, so empty and refresh the bucket now and then.

Swapping the ice bucket

Turn the ice maker off, or lift its arm if it has one, then empty the bucket. Slide or lift the old bucket out, noting how it lines up with the drive at the back if there is one. Seat the new bucket fully so it engages, close the compartment and turn the ice maker back on.

Questions about this part

Does this bucket come with the auger motor?

We can't confirm that. Electrolux lists this as a slim bucket assembly, Avenir version, and doesn't say a motor is included. If your auger motor has also failed, send your model and product number through the parts enquiry form and we'll check what's supplied.
