Frigidaire 241642534 Ice Maker Assembly - Direct OEM Replacement

In this review the Frigidaire 241642534 Ice Maker Assembly is evaluated for homeowners and repair technicians who need a reliable, direct-fit replacement for a malfunctioning refrigerator ice maker. The bottom line: this is a genuine Frigidaire OEM assembly that replaces part 241642527 and combines the ice mold and control device in one unit, making it the straightforward choice when the original ice maker no longer cycles or ejects cubes correctly. For anyone prioritizing compatibility and simple restoration of factory function, this part delivers predictable results.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM construction: The unit is an original Frigidaire part so it matches the original fit and materials for consistent long-term operation.
• Complete ice maker assembly: Includes both the ice mold and the control device so the mechanism that fills, freezes, ejects and refills is replaced together.
• Direct replacement: Designed to replace model 241642527, reducing diagnosis time and the need to source multiple components.
• Works with refrigerator water inlet: Integrates with the existing water inlet valve to receive water and hold it in the mold until ice forms.
• Automatic cycling: The control device handles the freeze-and-eject cycle so users regain automatic ice production without extra adjustment.

Who It's For

This assembly is aimed at owners of compatible Frigidaire refrigerators and independent repair technicians who want a factory-original ice maker to restore reliable automatic ice production. It suits anyone who prefers replacing the core assembly rather than troubleshooting multiple individual parts.

It is less useful for people whose refrigerators have unrelated water supply or freezer temperature problems; those users should address water inlet valves or freezer thermistors first, because replacing the ice maker alone will not fix feed or cooling issues.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Genuine Frigidaire OEM part ensures proper fit and compatibility with factory systems.

• Replaces model 241642527 directly, which reduces uncertainty when ordering parts.

Cons

• Does not address upstream issues such as a faulty water inlet valve or inadequate freezer cooling, so additional diagnosis may be required.
