Charles F August 04, 2025 for Model Number GD2SHAXKT01 Was having problems with ice maker. Stopped making ice. I replaced the ice level control board and the water inlet valve. It started making ice, but cubes are too big acct. too much water and it runs over some. I did not get the level control valve from you all. Does this level control board control the amount of water coming in ? I didn't want too spend a lot of money acct. it's old and I got board off Amazon that's problem my mistake. If you think this is the problem, the I will order it from you all. Thank you.
1 Answer Charles F. Thank you for your question. The ice level board will not have anything to do with the water level coming into the icemaker. This would be within the icemaker itself. If the motor module is hanging up it would cause the water fill to be off. Read More...
Jerry April 23, 2024 for Model Number 10658149801 I noticed last week that my ice maker was not making ice. I went on your site and looked up possible reasons. Ice maker power control seems to be working correctly. I was not sure if it was the inlet valve so I ordered one from your site. It arrived the next day and I replaced it this morning 4/23. Ice maker is still not working. Will it work right away or does it need to cycle a few times to get water to the ice maker. The water dispenser works fine.
1 Answer Jerry, if the freezer is reaching proper temperature, the ice maker would need to be checked for 120VAC when the optics sensors have a clear line of sight between each other. If there is 120VAC, the fill tube above the ice maker would need to be checked to identify if it is blocked up. If it is, it would need to be cleared. If it is not, the ice maker would need 24 hours to verify if it makes ice. If not, then the ice maker WPW10190961 would be the likely cause of failure. Read More...
Karl October 27, 2023 for Model Number KFIS20XVMS8 The front panel is not working it beeps if yon try to dispense water or ice the freezer and refrigerator are cooling fine. The display is dark and yesterday it would make a sound of something is trying to start up but then clicks and goes off. the light in the dispenser area still comes on not the water dispenser.
1 Answer Kari, You will want to test to see if there is 12 vdc getting to the display board and if there is but will not light up then this will be a dispenser control board issue. If there is not then this will be a faulty main control board. Read More...
Mj May 27, 2023 Wondering if I need to replace my inlet valve on Kenmore fridge? The icemaker is filled with unharvested ice. If the inlet valve was leaking and freezing the line, I would have thought what I would see is an empty icemaker because it would have harvested but then then wouldn't fill again? The icemaker and optics boards are new and functioning properly. They made a few batches, filled with water, but has stopped harvesting. Doesn't appear stuck, rakes are in proper position, optics blinking twice, bin is not full, freezer is cold.
Mark May 16, 2023 for Model Number MSF25C2EXM00 My unit makes ice but when I push the ice dispenser I get no ice delivered to the glass? Not dispensing.
1 Answer Mark, if the ice in the bucket is not freeing into a block, the dispenser switch WP2162361 would need to be tested for continuity after unplugging the appliance power cord and activating the switch. If there is not continuity, the switch would need to be replaced. If there is continuity, the most likely cause of failure would be the auger motor W10822635. Read More...
Mike May 08, 2023 for Model Number w10749397 a My four year old refrigerator stopped making ice. We called a repair company and the tech said that the motor was shot. They never came back or called because they never got the part. Suddenly after about 8 weeks, it started making ice again. That lasted about 3 weeks and now it has stopped again. It actually makes a tray about every three or four days. Any idea what the issue is?
1 Answer Mike, Start with checking to make sure the freezer temperature maintains 0° - to 8°f. You could have a slight cooling and/or defrost-type issue causing the ice maker to not reach the harvest temperature. Read More...
Steve April 25, 2023 for Model Number 106.56719500 Ice maker not making ice and red light flashes by on / off switch. Where should I start ??.
1 Answer Steve, Open the freezer door and tape the light switch closed. Press in the flapper on your ice maker optics that's blinking a red light. Making sure that the beam from one side to the other is not blocked, then observe the light. If it is not solid then replace the optics. W11629974 Read More...
Darold July 16, 2022 for Model Number 106.44423603 Hi, I am working on my Granddaughters ice maker. what is happing is that where the water comes into the icemaker, It freezes and won't make any more ice. I have replaced the icemaker and it worked for a few days then the same thing it freezes up at the inlet tube. ???
1 Answer Darold, Based on the information provided check the water inlet valve as it will freeze up the fill tube if it is leaking through. Read More...
Debbie April 29, 2022 for Model Number Kss042QMB01 My side by side kitchenAid fridge ice maker stopped working. I had the ice maker replaced AND the emitters (mother board). The repair man said that the problem must be a wire in the fridge from the sensors to the ice-maker- unfixable. Is there anything I can do?
Thane March 07, 2022 for Model Number 10651562102 -A week ago my Ice maker overflowed water into the freezer and onto the floor. I cleaned it up and switched the ice maker off. -When I restarted the Ice maker it made a little ice then quit permanently. -The are no lights on either optical board. I'm considering replacing them both but it seems odd that they would both fail at the same time and right after an overflow event. -I'm a bit concerned about replacing the optical boards and then getting a flood again. What controls the water fill level ? Kenmore model 10651562102 Thanks for the help, T
1 Answer Thane, the fill level of the ice maker would be controlled by the ice maker module W10190935 itself. If the ice maker water valve is receiving 120VAC during the overfill failure, the module would be the cause of failure. If water got into one of the optics boards, it can cause the other to fail as well. Read More...
