Frigidaire 241798233 Icemaker OEM Part

My frig is a year and a half old, Frigidaire with french doors and freezer drawer. It has an upper ice maker for the door in the frig and a bottom ice maker in the freezer drawer. After noticing the flood, I shut off the water supply to the frig and cleaned up the mess. Didn't know if it was the water solenoid valve that stuck open or if the bottom ice maker got stuck calling for water. This frig has 4 solenoid valves and according to the schematic, two valves are active any time water is called for. There is a main valve that connects to the water line coming into the frig. This sends water to the filter in the frig and back to a manifold that feeds 3 more solenoid valves, one for the upper ice maker, one for the lower ice maker and one for the water dispenser in the door. In order to flow any water to any device, the main valve has to be on along with one of the other 3. Again, two valves have to be active for water to flow. Knowing this, the solenoid valves are less suspect on the flooding meaning two valves have to be stuck on. The flooding problem now points more to the ice maker which calls for water on a cyclic pattern. First off noticed the ice maker stopped making ice for a few days. Not knowing why I moved the bin sensor wire bar up and down to make sure it was loose and working. It was about 12 hours later that the flooding occurred. I replaced both the ice maker in my freezer and the water solenoid valves. Replacing both was simple. Ice maker needed one screw removed and two others that need to be loosened. The connecting wire is behind a plastic cover on the back of the freezer with 3 screws holding that on. The valve assembly has two screws. The nylon water tubes use quick connect locks on the assembly. Push the while ring in toward the valve and this releases the lock on the tube. Changed out my water line that feeds my frig. Now one other item that might have been the reason why the flooding. The water filters are expensive and the filter timer seems to run out much too quickly. So I didn't replace the filter when it should have. Water flow was still good in the water dispenser so I didn't think the filter caused the flooding. Another possible cause could have been water pressure. I read that the solenoid valves close under pressure. I haven't opened up my old ones yet to look for clues. My guess is the valves are spring-loaded and close regardless of pressure. If by chance the lower ice maker valve stayed on because of lack of pressure because of an old filter, this doesn't explain why the main valve would also stay on which sees 70-80 psi from my main water source. I will look for clues in the ice maker. I still have my old Kitchen-aid frig and had to replace the ice maker once. It uses the same type of ice maker that is in my Frigidaire. Everything is good now. Planning on putting in a drain under my frig that empties outside to keep the flooding from happening again. Had difficulty plugging the new ice maker back in. Ice had built up in the connector.
