Robert Johnson for Model Number GNE27JMMKFES I don't use the icemaker, and fridge is not hooked up to water. At the bottom of the icemaker is a plastic blade that has a small switch that would at time be activated or deactivated when contacted by a food item, causing an occasional gutteral noise. When this happened before, I would push the blade toward the back of the fridge and reset a small switch which locked the blade in place and stopped the noise. Had a food collision which broke this switch off and caused the blade to come forward, resulting in the noise. If I temporarily removed the icemaker, would that solve the issue. If not, is there a replacement part available short of purchasing a new IM unit? Your video shows a top mount freezer, and the unit does not have this blade, tho it is shown on schematic for my bottom freezer.
Answer Robert, The icemaker would need to be replaced for this. The blade is not available as a separate part. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, May 11, 2022
