Steve October 05, 2023 for Model Number Ice maker wpw10122559 for KitchenAid kfis27cxms2 is there a reset button on newly installed ice maker to trigger cycle and have water dispensed into ice maker tray? Thanks
1 Answer Steve, while the ice maker can be jumped from port T to port H to start a harvest, it will go into a harvest once the icemaker bi-metal reaches less than 10°F. Read More...
Ronald November 22, 2022 for Model Number KFIS27CXMS3 hello what ice maker do i need to replace mine the unit i have has the front door ice and water access it also has a 2 plug connection with a test button on it
Dan Wilson April 04, 2020 for Model Number KitchenAid KFIS27CXWH1 The ice maker is not producing any ice. The water dispenser is working normally. The ice mold is empty, so I'm assuming water isn't reaching the ice maker. I'm aware of the test jumper ports on the ice maker, i.e. V-L for water inlet, and T-H to activate the "harvest" cycle. I have a couple of questions before I start disassembling the refrigerator. Web sources mention two water valves associated with the icemaker: W10270395 and 12956105. Are both valves potential failure points? If so, how can I tell which valve has failed? Is there a test I can perform on the valves? Thanks
1 Answer Dan, The water valve WP12956105 is a dual valve for the water dispenser and the icemaker. The water valve WPW10270395 is also for both but is the primary valve and if the dispenser is working then this valve is working. The one that would be needed is WP12956105. Read More...
Brandon February 13, 2016 Can you send me some instructions on how to replace the ice maker on GI7FVCXWA00 Whirlpool refrigerator? It stopped making ice but the water station still works and is flowing normally also had the filter bypass in.
1 Answer Hello Brandon, The icemaker and the water dispense are separate circuits and the valve is a dual valve which operate independently from one another. If the icemaker stopped full of ice, the icemaker WPW10122559 is most likely the cause of the issue. If the icemaker is empty, the issue is most likely the icemaker side of the water valve WPW10270395. Read More...

Disconnect the wiring harness. Slide out the assembly. When reassembling, make sure the grommet is installed properly to ensure a tight air seal. Unsnap fasteners securing fan cover and lift off.

Tim W. February 29, 2012 for Model Number GI7FVCXWY00 The ice maker which used to work OK, now works when it wants to. The water still works good,the filter has been replaced. How/what/where/when do we check 1st? What has happened? Is this a problumatic unit? Please reply ASAP! Thx, Tim
1 Answer Hello Tim. The ice maker WPW10122559 cycles based on the temperature of the unit. When the icemaker senses the ice in the tray is frozen, it cycles and ejects the frozen ice and brings in water to start a new batch of ice. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the icemaker is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
