Bosch Fridge & Freezer Ice Dispenser Flap11034647

This Bosch fridge and freezer ice dispenser is a genuine replacement part. The ice dispenser flap’s main purpose is to control the ice dispensing and maintaining the temperature within your freezer. The dispenser flap is useful for the general functionality within your appliance by closing when not in use and helping the ice stay frozen. Additionally, ice dispensers help to prevent spillages when the ice dispenser is opened. It is usually located on the front of your fridge or freezer section. When the ice dispenser is pressed, the dispenser flap is opened which allows the ice to fall neatly into your glass and immediately closes. This helps to keep the cool air in and maintains the cold temperature. The black plastic is hard and durable, allowing it to cope with the cold temperature within your appliance. The hinge connected to the flap allows the flap to open and close effortlessly when dispensing ice. The dispenser also features a wiring connector to help the functionality of the part and appliance.
