Lorena November 08, 2011 for Model Number MZD2665HEQ When I push for water it comes out with good pressure. But it is not making ice. I tested the power and still not making ice. What should I change?
1 Answer Hello Lorena. If the voltage is at the water valve, but no water comes to the icemaker, you will need to replace the water valve WP67005154. Also, make sure the fill tube for the icemaker is not frozen over. Hope this helps. Read More...
Tom November 04, 2011 for Model Number MCD2257HES Maytag Water is dripping from the front left side of ice maker into the ice bin. Is that the water inlet valve, not completely seating and over filling, or is it not level and overspilling into the icebin?
1 Answer Hello Tom. You will need to check and see if the ice maker is level. If not, it can cause the problem you are having. If it is level, check and see if the ice maker is too full of water. If so, the water valve WP67005154 may be bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
Stephen October 28, 2011 for Model Number asd2620hrz I replaced water inlet valve. I can get no water to the icemaker. I have made sure no line or tank was frozen. I have water to the door. What should I try next?
1 Answer Hello Stephen. You will need to test and see when the icemaker cycles, if it sends power to the water valve. Also, make sure the fill tube going to the icemaker is not frozen. The only way to check this is to remove the fill tube, or blow through the water line going to the icemaker. If the line is clear, and there is no power to the valve, replace the icemaker. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter.

Amy October 06, 2011 My freezer is on the bottom drawer of the refrigerator. The auto ice maker isn't producing ice.
1 Answer Hello Amy. Cycle the ice maker and see if there is power coming to the water valve, and if the fill tube in the freezer is frozen. If there is power and the fill tube is clear, you will need to replace the water valve WP67005154. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter.

Phil September 10, 2011 for Model Number MSD2651HES I recently replaced the water filter twice on my MSD2651HES Refrig because the water dispenser flow was very weak. Still weak pressure. When I remove filter and install blue bypass cap, pressure is excellent. Could this be the water valve? I recently had the water shut off to my condo to install a laundry sink, could something have clogged when water was turned back on? (city water, not well)
1 Answer Phil, Your description in a text book description of a water pressure/flow problem. With the filter installed you maust maintain a reccomended 32 psi water pressure to the fill valve for proper operation of the dispenser. with the "bypass plug" installed the water psi can be as low as 20 psi and operate. Basically, you may have a clog inthe fill valve debris screen or plumbing, or a low water supply psi. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Marge August 27, 2011 for Model Number MSD2655HEQ When I push on for the water to come out, it makes a loud noise from the back. Could it be the water valve inlet needs to be replaced? Thanks.

Joe July 16, 2011 for Model Number kbfa20erss01 I am getting very slow water flow out of the water dispense. The filter is new. I did notice that I had to turn off the water before installing the filter else it would leak all over. Do I need a new water valve? I also get a rattling sound behind the filter when the ice maker fills.
1 Answer Hi Joe. All of this points to a new water valve. This part # is WP67005154. If your copper supply line is hitting any metal on the back of your unit, then it will rattle or bang. It is always better to coil the copper tubing as in an according style so it helps minimize this. Thank you. Read More...

Ricardo June 28, 2011 for Model Number MCD2257THES Before I disconnected my water line to the fridge to relocate it to my other place every thing was working. The ice dispenser, water dispenser were all working. After probably year of being disconnected I reconnected the water line to the refrigerator, but then no water is going to ice dispenser and no water to the ice dispenser. I replace new water filter thinking it will solve the problem, but it did not. I know there is water going to the fridge because when I replaced the water filter, the water filled the water filter (there was water pressure), but no water is going to the ice maker and no water coming out in the water dispenser. What could be the problem? Please help me.
1 Answer Hello Ricardo. The first thing you will want to check is the water tank assembly R0131625. Check and see if it is frozen. If so, that is the problem. If it is good, you will need to test and see if there is power going to the water valve WP67005154, when the dispenser is pressed and the icemaker cycles. If there is power there and the dispenser and the icemaker does not work, you will need to replace the water valve. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps.http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
