Cliff for Model Number 106.56176501 Symptom - When I press the ice dispenser lever, the chute opens but the Auger will not turn. The motor makes no noise. My first attempt to fix the problem was unsuccessful. I removed and replaced the Auger motor. Please help me diagnosis the problem and suggest repair.
Answer Hello Cliff, The first thing you may want to check is the dispenser bracket assembly. To access the bracket assembly you will want to remove drip tray and using flat blade screw driver, slide under bottom of dispenser panel and pry out. This will pop the dispenser cover loose. At this point you want to check to make sure that the tabs holding switch in place on the dispenser bracket are not broken. You can check this by pushing in on the dispenser lever. If the switch moves replace bracket WP2180226. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, November 12, 2012
