If you need to touch a wire, use a non-conductive tool or wear insulating gloves to prevent electrical shock.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t test live voltage with a multimeter if you\u2019re unfamiliar with how to prevent short-circuiting.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider wearing safety glasses and\/or a dust mask when working with chemicals, dust or a large amount of debris to prevent irritation or injury.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check power supply<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When troubleshooting your ice maker, the first step is to make sure it's getting power. So before unplugging the unit, check to make sure your ice maker is receiving power. You can use a multimeter to measure the electrical current. Just set the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-use-a-multimeter-to-check-appliance-parts\/\"><b>multimeter<\/b> <\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to the voltage setting and carefully touch the probes to the power source or the ice maker's electrical connections. If there's no power, you'll need to dig deeper to find out why, like a blown fuse or a wonky outlet. Once you've confirmed the power supply is good, you can move on to testing each component.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test the water inlet valve<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The water inlet valve controls the flow of water into the ice mold, allowing for the production of ice cubes. To test the functionality of the water inlet valve, follow these steps:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locate the valve solenoid coil situated at the back of the refrigerator.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-use-a-multimeter-to-check-appliance-parts\/\"><b>multimeter<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, set it to the resistance (ohms) setting and measure the resistance across the valve coil.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A healthy water inlet valve should yield a resistance reading around 300 ohms, indicating that it is operating as intended and allowing proper water flow.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you encounter a resistance reading that is notably high, it signifies a defect in the valve coil. In this case, the valve is not functioning properly and should be replaced to restore best ice maker performance.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check the mold heater<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mold heater is responsible for warming the ice cube molds, allowing the easy release of newly formed ice cubes. Follow these steps to test the functionality of the mold heater:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locate the wiring leads of the mold heater within the ice maker's electrical connections.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-use-a-multimeter-to-check-appliance-parts\/\"><b>multimeter <\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">set to the resistance (ohms) setting to measure the resistance across the heater leads.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typically, a properly functioning mold heater will exhibit a resistance reading ranging approximately from 40 to 75 ohms.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you come across a substantially higher resistance reading, this indicates a potential malfunction or breakage in the mold heater. In such instances, it's likely that the heater is compromised and requires replacement.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test the thermostat<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The internal thermostat is responsible for regulating the harvest cycle, which facilitates the ejection of ice cubes. To conduct a test, follow these steps:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identify the electrical contacts of the thermostat on the ice maker wiring harness.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-use-a-multimeter-to-check-appliance-parts\/\"><b>multimeter<\/b> <\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">set to the resistance (ohms) setting to check for continuity across these contacts when the temperature is below 15\u00b0F (-9\u00b0C).<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you observe some resistance, it indicates that the thermostat is closed and functioning as intended.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if there is no continuity at colder temperatures, it suggests a faulty thermostat that requires replacement. This replacement is necessary to ensure the proper operation of the ice maker's ice cube ejection process.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check the ejector gear motor<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ejector gear motor is responsible for the movement that helps ice cubes come out of your ice maker. Here's how to test it:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find the motor's wires in the ice maker's wiring.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-use-a-multimeter-to-check-appliance-parts\/\"><b>multimeter<\/b> <\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">set to the resistance (ohms) setting to check the resistance between the motor wires.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good motor should show a resistance of 300 to 4400 ohms, indicating its proper functionality.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the resistance is very high or infinity, it suggests a broken motor that needs to be replaced for the ice cubes to come out correctly.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More information<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank you for reading!
