Quickly Remove and Clean Your Ice Bin from a Whirlpool Refrigerator
Removing an Ice Bin from a Whirlpool Refrigerator is an easy task that can be completed in just a few minutes. The ice bin, or ice maker, is located on the inside wall of the refrigerator. It is usually placed near the top of the refrigerator and is used to store and dispense ice cubes. To remove the ice bin, you will need a flat head screwdriver and a pair of pliers.
First, locate the two screws that hold the ice bin in place. These screws can be found on the inside wall of the refrigerator, near the top. Using the flat head screwdriver, unscrew the two screws.
Next, grab the ice bin with the pliers and gently pull it out of the refrigerator. Depending on the model of your Whirlpool refrigerator, the ice bin may have a few additional screws holding it in place. Remove these screws with the flat head screwdriver.
Once the ice bin is removed, it will need to be cleaned. Wipe the bin down with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or grime. If you notice any mold or mildew, use a mild bleach solution to kill the bacteria. Once the ice bin is clean and dry, it is ready to be reinstalled.
To reinstall the ice bin, place it back in the refrigerator and slide it into place. Make sure that it is firmly seated and that the screws line up correctly. Then, use the flat head screwdriver to tighten the two screws that hold the ice bin in place.
The ice bin should now be firmly in place and the refrigerator can be used as normal. If the ice bin is not securely fastened, the refrigerator will not be able to dispense ice cubes.
Removing an ice bin from a Whirlpool refrigerator is a fairly straightforward process that can be completed in just a few minutes. With the right tools, you can easily remove and clean the ice bin and have your refrigerator working as normal in no time.
