WPW10601149 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Fitting

The WPW10601149 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Fitting is a genuine Whirlpool replacement part used as an ice maker water inlet tube. Measuring approximately 5 inches long, this component directs water into the refrigerator's ice maker fill cup during the filling stage. It is designed for compatible Whirlpool refrigerators and select appliances from related brands. 

If your refrigerator is leaking near the ice maker water inlet or has stopped producing ice, replacing a damaged or obstructed fill tube may help restore proper operation. Appliance Kingdom serves customers across Canada with appliance replacement parts and shipping options nationwide. Confirm compatibility with your refrigerator's complete model number before ordering.

Function & Importance

The WPW10601149 water inlet tube guides incoming water into the ice maker fill cup, allowing the ice maker mould to receive the water needed to produce ice cubes. Correct positioning and a secure fit help direct water where it belongs and reduce the risk of leaks around the ice maker compartment.

A damaged, obstructed, or incorrectly installed tube can interfere with the filling process and affect ice production. Using the correct genuine OEM replacement helps maintain the intended fit and water-delivery function.

Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

You may need to inspect the water inlet tube if you notice:

  • Water leaking around the refrigerator's ice maker or fill tube.

  • The ice maker is not producing ice.

  • The ice maker is not receiving water correctly during its fill cycle.

  • Water is not being directed properly into the ice maker fill cup.

These symptoms can also be caused by a frozen fill tube, a restricted water supply, a faulty water inlet valve, or another ice maker problem. Replacing the fitting will help only if the tube itself is the cause.

Compatibility Guidance

This part is intended for compatible refrigerator ice maker water-fill systems. It is listed for select Whirlpool and related-brand appliances, including certain KitchenAid, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore, and Inglis models. Compatibility depends on the exact appliance model.

Before purchasing, locate the model number on your refrigerator's identification label and verify that WPW10601149 is specified for your appliance. Do not rely on the brand name alone.
