241817701 – Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Ice Maker Motor
The 241817701 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Ice Maker Motor is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement component designed to drive the ice-ejection mechanism in compatible refrigerators. Manufactured by Frigidaire, this motor operates the ice maker's internal gears, helping move formed ice cubes out of the mould and into the ice storage bin.
If your refrigerator has stopped ejecting ice or the ice maker no longer completes its normal cycle, replacing a defective motor may restore proper ice-making operation. Appliance Kingdom serves homeowners, landlords, and appliance repair technicians across Canada with appliance replacement parts and convenient shipping options.
Function & Importance
The ice maker motor powers the mechanism that ejects frozen ice cubes from the mould. During the ice-making cycle, the motor drives the internal gears and ejector mechanism to release the cubes into the storage bin and prepare the ice maker for its next cycle.
A functioning motor is essential for consistent ice production. Using a genuine Frigidaire OEM replacement helps maintain the intended fit, mechanical operation, and compatibility with the original ice maker assembly.
Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement
A faulty ice maker motor may cause the following problems:
-
The refrigerator ice maker stops producing ice because the ejection cycle does not complete.
-
Ice cubes remain in the mould instead of being released into the storage bin.
-
The ice maker stops cycling normally.
-
The motor produces humming or unusual mechanical noises without moving the ejector mechanism.
-
Ice production becomes intermittent due to inconsistent operation of the ice-ejection system.
Will replacing this part fix your problem? It can if the motor is defective. However, a blocked water supply, faulty water inlet valve, incorrect freezer temperature, damaged gears, or a defective ice maker control mechanism can produce similar symptoms. Diagnose the cause before replacing the motor.
