Firebird November 07, 2023 for Model Number RF4287HARS/XAA Although this Ice Maker is supposed to be a genuine GE part, how come the images show it to be a Samsung part? I am trying to purchase an identical Samsung Ice Maker (AP5651749) but it has been on backorder for over a month. In my chat with an AppliancePartsPro expert, they pointed me to this GE Ice Maker. Question - are they actually the same product (Samsung AP5651749 vs. GE AP4513392)? The GE part is in stock and the Samsung part is on backorder.
1 Answer Firebird, The correct ice maker for your model is the DA97-07365G Although the GE ice maker may be similar we can't guarantee it will work for your machine. The GE one may have different harnesses and specifications for the GE machine. It is recommended to stay with the original manufacturer's part. Read More...
Eric August 03, 2023 for Model Number GFSF6KKYEWW I need to replace ice maker WR30X10131 1) I see instructions to remove screw but there are none visible. I think mine only needs the tab pushed and pulled out 2) does this part include the motor listed at item # 125 on the parts list Thank you
1 Answer Hello Eric, once the ice bin is removed remove the mounting screw on the front left of the liner then pull out the wire harness cover, disconnect the ice maker wire harness then push in the ice maker tabs and slide the ice maker out, the motor in 125 is part of the rear-mounted auger motor rand is not part of the ice maker.

Phil December 02, 2020 for Model Number GFSS6KKYCSS Our ice maker clumps in the bottom of the tray, it appears the icemaker above is dripping. We have defrosted but the problem remains. Does the ice maker need replacing? Thanks.
1 Answer Phil, it would be recommended that the ice maker WR30X10131 is inspected for any cracks or identification of whether it is overfilling. If it is overfilling and there is water dripping from the fill tube above the ice maker, the failure would be in the water valve WR57X10091. Read More...
David M. October 01, 2019 for Model Number Ps2577893 Our Ice maker does make ice but in the cube dispenser some cubes are frozen in clumps and stop the auger motor because it jams with these clumps of ice cubes. Does this mean that the ice maker needs to be replaced? It’s a GE profile side by side refrigerator / freezer. Model PFSS6PKXCSS.
1 Answer Hello David, This can be the indication of a failing water valve WR57X10091 or a cracked icemaker WR30X10131 ice mold. Read More...
Dennis V. August 17, 2019 for Model Number PFSS6PKXESS My icemaker does not stop making ice even when the bin is full or when the icemaker is turned off. On the advice of justanswer.Com, I replaced the icemaker. The icemaker was purchased from appliancepartspros.Com (referred by just answer.Com). The icemaker continues to make ice when the icemaker is turned off. Any advice or recommendations?
1 Answer Hello Dennis, The arm for the icemaker is connected to an on/off switch for the icemaker. If the icemaker continues to make ice when turned off, this part of the new icemaker WR30X10131 has to be defective. This switch is internal to the icemaker. Give us a call at 1-877-477-7278 with your units' model and serial number and we will set up a warranty replacement for the part. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.

Stan May 28, 2019 for Model Number GFSF6KKYCWW I have ordered an Ice bucket assy, as the round plastic drive hub for the auger is cracked and it jams. We have been getting ice but it now appears as if the Ice maker itself is mot working. I have removed it for inspection. The 9 Ice cavities did have partiaally frozen cubes so perhaps I don't really have a problem. My question is what does the test switch do? I thought perhaps it would rotate the ejection arm an cause a subsequent fill cycle.
1 Answer Stan, The test switch when pressed and held down will start a cycle. You can force a cycle and make sure it dumps the ice then refills. Read More...
John November 21, 2018 for Model Number dfss9vkbass Ice maker quit making ice. Water flows fine and new water filter. When I hit the reset, I hear sounds like a pump is trying to work in the area of the ice maker. Is this a bad ice maker or doe you think it's a frozen line and the maker is trying to suck the water but nothing gets pulled in? Thanks
1 Answer John, It would be recommended to pull the icemaker and see if there is ice blocking the fill tube. If there is not then test to see if the water valve is getting 120 vac when the icemaker calls for water. If there is power to the valve but no water and no frozen fill tube then this would be a valve issue. Read More...
Dave T February 01, 2018 for Model Number PFSF6PKXAWW Trying to replace wr30X10131 ice maker. Can't get the tray out all the way the wr30x10131 original is hung up & won't come out. It came off the top supports & I've tried prying w/rubber spatcheler. I've defrosted the fridg.?
1 Answer Dave, If unable to release the tab at the top of the icemaker in the front then try to use a flat blade screwdriver to get the tab to release. You may need to push the icemaker back slightly to get it to release. Read More...
Iceman87 August 13, 2017 for Model Number GE GFSS6KKYBSS A young person in my household removed the ice bucket from the ice maker assembly, then forcibly reinserted the bucket into the assembly. Something went awry, and now the ice bucket/auger assembly won't seat back in the ice maker assembly, and if I can get it back in, it makes a god-awful "churning" noise. In addition, the crushed-ice flapper door is stuck open. I'm inclined to think that once it starts producing ice again, it'll only dispense whole ice cubes as opposed to crushed ice, even though it's set to crushed ice (auger door stuck open.) My question: when the bucket was shoved back into the ice maker, is it possible that something broke with the protruding "auger door opening bar" that extends beyond the back of the bucket assembly? It doesn't appear that anything looks broken, but the bucket should simply slide in and click into the ice maker, and it just doesn't do this. Thanks.
1 Answer Iceman87, This issue does sound like the arm that runs from front to back is not going into the slot at the back and potentially could have been bent by shoving the part into place. Read More...
Maxine January 25, 2017 for Model Number GFSF6KKYBBB Our ice maker has a broken flapper gate and the ice maker is pitching ice cubes all over the floor. Very annoying and ice cubes are melting on the kitchen floor. Need to replace the flapper gate? Please advise.
1 Answer Maxine, The part number that you would need for the ice dispenser that keeps ice from going every where would be Ice case route assembly WR13X10737. Read More...
