What the ice maker mounting washer does

An ice maker has to sit at the right height and angle so water fills the mould evenly and the cubes release cleanly. Mounting washers like this one set the spacing between the ice maker and its fixing point. If a washer is lost during a repair, the ice maker can sit crooked or loose. That can show up as water spilling from the tray into the freezer, uneven or hollow cubes, ice that won't eject properly, or a rattle when the harvest cycle runs. Fitting the correct 1.0mm washer puts the ice maker back where it belongs.

Refitting the ice maker

Switch the fridge off at the wall and turn off the water supply to the ice maker. Remove the ice bin, then follow how the old ice maker is mounted, noting where each washer sits before anything comes apart. Fit the 1.0mm washer in the same position, tighten the fixings evenly and reconnect the wiring plug. Restore water and power, then watch the first few cycles for leaks.
