Michele for Model Number PSS26NSWASS The ice maker suddenly stopped working. There is no ice left in the bucket and it will not make more ice. What could be causing this? FYI ~ We recently replaced the water filter (unfortunately not with a GE Branded product but with an off-brand as that was what was in there originally when we bought the house and this was before I found this site). Although it took a bit to flush out the new filter and actually get it working again, the water dispenser does now work. The ice maker stopped working after this. Could having replaced the filter have anything to do with the ice maker suddenly not working?
Answer Hello Michele. If the dispenser is working, then the water to the icemaker should be fine. Make sure the freezer is between 0° and 5°. You need to check and see if there is power going to the water valve when the icemaker cycles. If so, replace the water valve on the unit. If not, or the icemaker does not cycle, you will need to replace the icemaker on the unit. Also, check and make sure the fill tube on the unit is not frozen and clogged. If so, replace the water valve and thaw out the fill tube. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
