Part WR17X21781 Refrigerator Dispenser Ice Chute Funnel
Purpose
Guides ice cubes safely into glassware during dispensing.
Details
The WR17X21781 is a genuine OEM ice funnel assembly located within the freezer door dispenser housing. Its main responsibility is to provide a smooth pathway for ice cubes after they exit the door duct, preventing them from scattering. Over time, the plastic funnel can crack from physical impact or become damaged due to structural wear. Common symptoms of a failing ice funnel include ice jamming inside the chute, crushed ice spraying erratically, or frost accumulating around the dispenser area due to an improper seal. Replacing this part ensures efficient, directed ice delivery and restores full functionality to your dispenser interface.
Included Items
One dispenser ice funnel guide. Required tools: Phillips screwdriver and a putty knife or flathead screwdriver to gently pry off the dispenser trim.
