SCREW

Screw is listed as part 03-1403-27 for ice machine replacement and service work. Hardware wear is often visible: elongated holes, stripped threads, or parts that won’t stay tight. A short post-repair check—visual inspection plus a full cycle—helps confirm the issue is resolved without introducing new leaks or noise. Once the root cause is corrected, performance should stabilize and output should return to normal. Symptoms can present as loose parts, intermittent operation, abnormal noise, or a cycle that won’t complete normally—depending on where this part sits in the system. If the fault changes with vibration or after moving panels, look for borderline fitment, loose connectors, or wear marks around the installation area. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. Recheck fasteners after a short run-in period; vibration can loosen hardware if it isn’t seated correctly. Take a photo before disassembly so you can confirm orientation and fastener locations during reassembly.
