Jeff for Model Number WRS571CIHZ01

I noticed when running the 45 test the tray does not stop at level. It continues to rotate past level another 15 degrees or so and then it stops but sounds like it is still trying to rotate. If I release bucket switch (and remove power) the tray backs up a bit. All the wires look fine. The fact that it is running the harvest cycle does indicate it is getting the required power correct? Anything else I can check other than all the wires? Could it possibly be the valve that sends the water to the ice maker? Is there a way to check this valve?

Answer

Jeff, Yes, the unit is getting proper power to the icemaker module that is allowing it to turn. If the icemaker is not making ice then check to make sure that there is power getting to the water valve when the icemaker cycles. If there is but no water coming in then it would be a faulty valve.
