Ice bin replacement (also searched as ice bucket replacement or ice maker bucket replacement) is for the container that catches ice after harvest. Leesburg families pull these bins out constantly. The plastic rails wear, the bucket cracks at the auger coupling, or the lid warps so the optical sensor thinks the bin is full.
Door-ice refrigerators use a smaller bucket in the door ice room. If that bucket is missing or cracked, ice dumps into the door liner and melts. Freezer-mounted bins on side-by-sides in Beacon Hill and older Exeter homes take a beating from being used as a scoop pan.
When the bin is the whole problem
If ice is making but not dispensing, or the freezer is full of stray cubes, inspect the bin before paying for a new ice maker. A contractor can confirm whether the auger, bucket, or both need to come out. See also auger replacement.
