Manufacturer Part Number: 243297613

The Ice Maker Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is responsible for automatically producing batches of ice through a process of freezing water into cube form. The ice maker works in conjunction with the refrigerator's freezer compartment and water supply line to perform its ice production function. 

Symptoms of a faulty ice maker include:

  • Failure to produce ice cubes
  • Oddly shaped, sparse, or chunky ice output
  • Leaks or water pools in the freezer 
  • Strange noises coming from the ice maker area
  • Error codes shown regarding ice maker performance

Causes of a bad ice maker assembly can include issues with components like the mold heater, water valve, or agitator that are vital to the freezing process. Improper refrigeration temperatures or clogs preventing water flow can also negatively impact ice production.

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

Brian for Model Number LGHB2869LF3

My ice maker won't make ice. I replaced the ice maker with 243297606. The ice maker diagnostics all pass. As far as I can tell, the issue is that the fresh food ice maker is not getting cold enough. The diagnostics show it at anywhere between 20 degrees and 47 degrees, depending when I check it. I used a hair dryer to defrost the coils and fan behind the ice maker, fan spins and all seems to work as it should. In fact, if I use the diagnostic screen to put water in the ice mold, it quickly freezes. When I use the diagnostic screen to dump the tray, it does as it should. I can manually run the whole cycle, but it will not go automatically.

Answer

Hello Brian, based on your testing, the ice maker is working correctly as per the test mode but not getting cold enough as measured by the ice maker thermistor to cycle in normal operation, since the ice maker has its own evap coil, this may be a ice maker evap fan problem or a ice maker evap defrost heater problem, if both are testing ok then replace the main control board.
