140070357201 Genuine Ice Maker Ventilation Assembly 220V 50Hz 4 Pin for Electrolux Group Fridges with Ice Makers

Part 140070357201 is a genuine Electrolux ventilation assembly for the ice maker section of Electrolux group fridges. It's rated 220V 50Hz and connects through a 4 pin plug, so it's a powered unit rather than a plain plastic vent. Electrolux has several similar ice maker ventilation assemblies, so confirm 140070357201 against your fridge's parts list or the label on the old part before ordering.

Ice maker slow, stopped or cubes melting together?

To freeze water into cubes, an ice maker needs a steady flow of very cold air, and on many fridges that air is moved and directed by a dedicated ventilation assembly. When it fails, the ice section warms up. You might notice ice production slowing or stopping, cubes coming out soft or hollow, ice fusing into a block in the bin, water dripping from the dispenser or frost forming around the ice compartment. Unusual noise from the ice section can also point here. Make sure the freezer itself is cold and the vents aren't iced over before replacing it.

Before fitting the assembly

Unplug the fridge or switch it off at the wall and empty the ice bin. Remove covers carefully and photograph the wiring and any foam seals as you go. Push the 4 pin connector in until it clicks and route the wires away from moving parts. Refit every cover and seal so warm air can't get into the ice section, then allow up to a day for ice production to recover.
