Ice Maker Rudder Arm
This white plastic component acts as the mechanical bridge between the metal shut-off arm and the ice maker's internal microswitch. Over time, the plastic can fatigue or crack at the mounting point, causing the arm to lose tension and remain in the 'up' (off) position even when the ice bin is empty. Replacing this granular component restores the mechanical linkage required for the harvest cycle to trigger.

Ice Maker Shut-Off Arm
The shut-off arm is the physical feeler that detects ice levels. If the arm becomes bent or the mounting pin shears, it will fail to drop back into the down position via gravity or spring tension. This prevents the ice maker from initiating a new water fill or harvest cycle as it incorrectly signals a full bin.

Modular Ice Maker Assembly
If the rudder and shut-off arms are physically intact, the failure is internal to the modular head's timing cam or drive motor. If the internal gears skip a tooth or the return spring snaps inside the sealed head, the assembly cannot pull the arm back down. Replacing the entire modular unit is the standard industrial resolution when internal mechanical timing is lost.
