What Does the WP2188656 Crisper Drawer Do?

The WP2188656 is a refrigerator crisper drawer designed to hold fruits and vegetables while helping regulate the humidity within the drawer. Its adjustable humidity control allows the user to regulate moisture conditions to help keep produce fresh for longer.

The drawer mounts inside the refrigerator beneath the crisper shelf. The correct drawer dimensions, mounting configuration, and humidity-control design are important for proper fit and operation.

Using a genuine OEM replacement helps ensure the drawer is manufactured for the intended Whirlpool refrigerator applications rather than relying on an incorrectly sized or poorly matched generic drawer.

Common Signs Your Refrigerator Crisper Drawer Needs Replacement

The WP2188656 may need replacement if the original crisper drawer has:

• Cracks or broken plastic

• Damage from accidental impact or misuse

• Material fatigue from long-term use

• Difficulty sliding in or out

• Damage around the drawer or mounting areas

• A damaged or unusable humidity-control mechanism

PartSelect specifically notes that this crisper drawer can become damaged or develop material fatigue over time, making it difficult to slide the drawer in and out.

Will Replacing WP2188656 Fix My Refrigerator Problem?

If your problem is a cracked, damaged, or difficult-to-use crisper drawer, replacing the drawer with the correct OEM part can restore the drawer's intended storage and humidity-control function.

However, WP2188656 is a physical refrigerator drawer rather than a refrigeration-system component. It will not correct unrelated cooling, temperature, compressor, evaporator, or defrost problems.

Compatibility & Ordering Guidance

WP2188656 is a Whirlpool refrigerator crisper drawer with humidity control and is documented by Whirlpool, PartSelect, and RepairClinic for use across a variety of compatible refrigerator models.

Because refrigerator drawers can differ in dimensions and configuration, always verify your refrigerator's complete model number before ordering.

Do not rely solely on appearance. Two Whirlpool refrigerator drawers can look similar while having different dimensions or mounting configurations.

If you are unsure whether WP2188656 is correct for your refrigerator, provide Appliance Kingdom with your complete model number so compatibility can be confirmed before purchase.
