Joseph August 01, 2025 for Model Number 106.54616300 Hello, I purchased an icemaker part number AP3182733 just over two years ago. Unfortunately, my Fridge is not making ice again. Is there a way via a multimeter to test this part to make sure this is the cause of the problem? There is no water making it to the unit. If the unit is ok, I am guessing there is a solenoid valve might be bad, or the water line has iced up.
1 Answer Hello Joseph, thank you for contacting AppliancePartsPros.com There is no way to test the icemaker itself for resistance as the manufacturer has not provided that information. What can be done is to remove the cover from the head of the icemaker and check for voltage at the ports marked L and N for 120v AC with the door switches taped or held down and the ice level sensor door tricked so that it reads the ice bin in place. If that voltage is present then either the icemaker itself, the water valve AP5263471, or the wiring between the 2 has an issue. If the voltage at L-N is anything less than 110v AC then the issue would likely be with the ice level sensor boards AP5956767 unless you have no voltage present, at which point it may be the icemaker harness AP6006033.

1 Answer George, the model provided will have an optic on the right freezer wall that would be in line with the top of the ice bin. The optic will have a slide cover that would need to be moved to the closed position to turn the ice maker off. The ice maker will turn back on when the cover is moved to the open position.

Mark September 20, 2023 for Model Number 106.53554201 The Icemaker Assembly 2198597 / AP3182733 is currently out of stock and you have reduced the price $95.39. When do you anticipate having these back in stock? And, will you jack the price right back up once they are back in stock? I need one of these ASAP so I need to know.

Melvin July 15, 2023 for Model Number Kenmore fridge 106.53632300 My ice maker is working, optics test fine. Black tube is not clogged, how to I determine if it is a water inlet problem or in the ice maker assembly itself?
1 Answer MELVIN, Using a multimeter check for power to the valve when the Ice maker cycles. Read More...
Salsvette July 13, 2023 for Model Number KSRS25IKSS01 My ice make has stopped producing ice. It was working great up to last week when I had a repair come by and install a new diffuser/fan since the fridge side was not cold. In order to install that part he removed the ice maker and then reinstall it. Since then I have not seen any ice production. I have unplugged the ice maker and plugged it back in but nothing. Help.
1 Answer Salsvette, Based on the information provided I would start by checking the temperature at the ice maker to be sure it is below 10°f and that it has water to it. This is to determine if it is a cooling issue or an ice maker issue. Read More...

Joe March 13, 2023 for Model Number GD5NVAXSA01 I am looking for a whirlpool part # 2198597 I do not know if the part comes with the Base (bottom) cover because I had that refrigerator without the ice maker.So I need every thing to install it to my fridge. If you have it in stock please give me part # for that base cover. Thank You.

Bill January 05, 2023 for Model Number MSD2542VEB01 My ice maker makes ice but in front of the door the cubes are all frozen together with icicles holding & connecting it to the cubes, all frozen together. Thank you for your help, Bill
1 Answer Bill, Check for a leak when the unit is filling with water. The ice maker may not be mounted level or maybe over-filling with water. If a leveling issue check the way it is mounted, if it is over filling you may need a new ice maker. Read More...
Bill M July 30, 2022 for Model Number • Serial Numb I need to replace the icemaker unit. You show that Complete Icemaker Assembly (8 Cube) 2198597 / AP3182733 is out of stock. When will it be back in stock? Thanks.
Diane May 25, 2022 for Model Number KSCS25INSS00 I replaced the ice maker in 2014. The part number for the ice maker is AP3182733(2198597). It appears that the ice was not fully ejected and water spilled over the top. The ice cubes are stuck half way. Suggestions? Thanks
1 Answer Diane, with the optics board flapper taped down and the optics W11629974 having a clear line of sight, the ice maker 2198597 would need to be tested for 120VAC from the motor module (behind the face cover) port L to port N. If there is 120VAC, the ice maker has failed. If there is not 120VAC, the optics board has failed. Read More...
