Judy October 27, 2016 for Model Number 2198597 kenmore ice maker quit filling. I have taken it out tested lights flashing all work the way its suppose to but when taking the cover off I noticed one of the two plastic clips in the middle of the dial that turns is broke off ,is this whats keeping it from filling up with water and making ice? I noticed that yesterday and still snapped it back together and heated up the black water tube to make sure it wasn't frozen up and the tray filled and dumped 3 times and quit again.? is it just that small plastic dial clip or whole ice maker? Can I buy just that small plastic clip if that's what it is?
1 Answer Judy, We wouldn't expect the broken clip to present a major problem, as far as the fill cycle is concerned, but it probably will create issues ejecting the ice cubes. You would need to dismantle the ice maker, replace the extractor and reassemble the ice maker, It most likely would be better to replace the assembly, if or when the problem persists. Since the ice maker worked for three cycles, you most likely have a "glitch" in the emitter and receiver circuits in the sensor circuit. Read More...
Belva October 11, 2016 for Model Number ED5PBAXVB00 Ice maker keeps hanging up the ice in the middle area. Tired of going to get ice, no ice. Then a lot of times the ice falls to the bottom of the freezer instead of going in bin. Husband is ready to replace ice maker all together.My question, any way of adjusting something so the ice will quit hanging up in the middle?
1 Answer Hello Belva. No, it sounds like the icemaker is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit if the cubes are normal size. Read More...
Ian August 30, 2016 for Model Number Kenmore 106.56662500 Kenmore 106.56662500 side-by-side with in-door ice storage and dispense. Water dispenses from door, I recently (within the last six months) replaced the control valve at the left rear of the unit, and more recently replaced the main waiter supply line due to a pin-hole in it. Ice maker is not putting ice into the bin. Ice-maker has ice in it, harvester arms are pointed down into the ice tray. Immediately after opening freezer door, red LED on receiver unit blinks twice, blinks twice, blinks twice, then a long single blink, then repeats. With the door open but the flap on the IR transmitter held, the red LED remains on, sometimes. Other times, with the door open but the flap help, the red LED short-short-long. With the door sensor held and the transmitter flap held, the red LED does not come on at all. All tests above performed with the ice maker switch in the on position. Does the above description suggest the ice maker, the IR transmit and receiver boards, or both? Thanks for your help! i
1 Answer Hello Ian. Since the boards pass and then fail, I would start with them because they need to be replaced for sure. If the icemaker still does not work after replacement, you will need to replace the icemaker on the unit. Read More...
Edard July 18, 2016 for Model Number FRS26HR4DW4 I replaced the water control valves and the ice maker. I also checked water pressure and frozen lines. The ice maker makes ice but only three at a time. The heater is working and the water pressure is correct. How do I get more water in to the ice making machine. Please help.
1 Answer Hello Edard. You will need to check and see if the water filter is bad and needs to be replaced. Read More...
Dave July 18, 2016 for Model Number 10658963700 My ice maker started leaking water all over the floor. I opened the freezer door and turned off the ice maker switch and the water stopped coming out.The ice maker was frozen solid. I removed the ice maker and let it thaw out, put it back but it is not making ice. Is a new ice maker needed at this time?
Vic C June 17, 2016 I replaced my ice maker and it all went smoothly according to your video, I now notice that I'm not getting any water to flow into the machine. I poured water into the machine and Ice was made and pushed out. What part is next in order to make water flow into the maker.
1 Answer Vic, The water valve would be the most likely cause for the unit to not put water into the icemaker. Read More...
