W11366500 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Water Tube
The W11366500 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Water Tube is an original Whirlpool replacement part designed for compatible refrigerators. This ice maker fill tube directs water into the ice maker mould during the filling cycle, supporting reliable ice production. It includes a heater to help prevent the fill tube from freezing. This genuine OEM part is also used in select KitchenAid, Maytag, and Jenn-Air refrigerator applications.
Appliance Kingdom serves customers across Canada with appliance replacement parts and support to help homeowners, landlords, and professional repair technicians find the right component. If your compatible refrigerator has a leaking, frozen, or malfunctioning ice maker fill tube, replacing the W11366500 may resolve the issue when the tube is confirmed as the cause.
Function & Importance of the Part
The W11366500 refrigerator water tube supplies water to the ice maker mould during the ice-making process. Its integrated heater helps prevent water from freezing inside the fill tube and obstructing the flow of water.
A damaged, obstructed, or frozen fill tube can interfere with the ice maker's water supply, resulting in reduced or interrupted ice production. Using the correct OEM replacement helps maintain the intended fit, water flow, and heating function for the compatible refrigerator.
Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement
A faulty or obstructed ice maker fill tube may cause the following issues:
-
Ice maker is not producing ice.
-
Water is leaking around the ice maker or fill tube.
-
The fill tube repeatedly freezes or becomes blocked.
-
Water is not reaching the ice maker mould correctly.
-
Ice production is inconsistent because the ice maker is not receiving water.
These symptoms are listed in the product information for W11366500. However, other components, including the water inlet valve, water supply, or ice maker assembly, can cause similar problems.
Will replacing W11366500 fix my refrigerator?
It can if the fill tube is damaged, frozen, leaking, or otherwise defective. If the actual cause is a faulty water inlet valve, an ice maker issue, or another water-supply problem, replacing the tube alone may not resolve it. Diagnose the issue before ordering.
