Darryl for Model Number 106.51123211

I have a Kenmore Coldspot (model 106.51123211) side by side that has a water/Ice dispenser on the freezer door that will not dispense water or ice. It will not even engage the ice maker auger. The ice maker itself receives water and generates ice. I have checked the door switches, and dispenser switch and everything checks out. The dispenser light works and the panel lights up. I have also replaced the dispenser control board in case it was faulty. I heard that an over pressure could cause issues, but I still get nothing after I turn the water off and bleed the lines. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Answer

It sounds like you could have an issue at the main control. Find your tech sheet and wiring diagram and find where the voltage comes from to the auger motor the main control or dispenser control? If the main control powers auger, check the wiring from dispenser control to main control and from control to auger. Wiring at the door hinge could be an issue to look for as well.
