Desert Guy July 07, 2014 for Model Number LSC27914CW The Ice Maker has failed. Symptoms are: The ice tray seems to be out of synch in that it starts to tilt, yet the drive motor continues to run and I hear a noise that sounds like a "clicking sound" as though gears are not meshing. The other observation is I don't have any water coming in to fill the tray. I have good water pressure and water is streaming very nicely when filling a container from the door spicket. The power switch is turned on. My other question is how do I remove the old ice maker assembly? The right side seems to come loose from it's mounting, however, the left side is not coming loose from it's mounting. How do I get the left side to release so I can remove it from the refrigerator? Thanks. Desert Guy
1 Answer Desert guy, To remove the icemaker there will be a screw in it that holds it in place. This screw will need to be remove to pull the unit out. As for what would cause the issue. It is most likely caused by a faulty icemaker in which the motor has become to weak to turn the tray. Read More...

Mike March 01, 2013 for Model Number 79551023012 This fridge had NO water to it when I bought the home. It does now. Water in door works. NO ICE. No water to ice tray. I see a warning that damage to ice maker may occour if ice maker is left on with no water. Would this be an easy replace to do the ice maker or is it more parts. I checked the solenoids and they seem ok.What would the damage be to with no water to the ice maker and it was left on? I want to order the right parts.
1 Answer Mike, You can test to see if motor operates on the icemaker. There is a rest button on the bottom of the icemaker. When you push button if the icemaker does not run then the motor is bad and icemaker would need to be replaced. Read More...
Barb February 12, 2013 for Model Number 7955101 This seems to be my ice maker. My problem is that the ice tray seems to be warped and when water fills tray I get spillage down the side of freezer and then of course ice build up on inner wall. I cant seem to be able to twist tray back straight. Have you heard of this problem before? Is my only answer is to purchase new ice maker?
1 Answer Hello Barb. Yes, the only repair is to replace the ice maker 5989JA1005G in the unit. Read More...
Lawrence H February 09, 2013 for Model Number 79551026010 What are the steps for removing and replacing the icemaker, pt number 5989JA1005G?
1 Answer Hello Lawrence, To remove icemaker you would pull ice bin out. Once out there is a phillips head screw that you would remove and once removed pull icemaker out. Disconnect the harness, plug new icemaker into harness and slide icemaker back in and put screw in. Reinstall the ice bin. Read More...
