Jaytea April 25, 2018 for Model Number Kenmore Elite 106.56696501 About 4 years ago I replaced the motor for the ice maker and that worked. It just stopped working again and I can tell that the motor needs to be replaced again because one of the bottom two contacts that the pins from the ice maker touch is burnt out. However, this time the circular plastic just around the pin is slightly warped. Does that mean I need to instead replace the entire ice maker assembly. Or should it still be fine with just the motor replacement. I have photos of both that will show exactly what I mean that I can send if I have an email address. Unless I can upload an image here or provide a link. Not sure how to upload an image here...
1 Answer JayTea, For this issue you will want to replace the entire icemaker with the contact being burnt and the gear being warped. Read More...
Bob April 18, 2018 for Model Number 58582890 My ice maker works but not as quickly as it should. Is there a timer adjustment on the control module? I've replaced the ice maker once already so, it's not the factory model.
1 Answer Hello Bob. No, there is no timer. You will need to check and make sure the temp is 0-5° for the icemaker to work properly. Thank you. Read More...

Rosie March 23, 2018 for Model Number GD5VVAXTY02 When the icemaker fills with water, it runs in too much water, so water runs down and drips on the shelves and freezes in a thin sheet on the bottom of the freezer. Does it need a new Water Volume Control Unit? Or can i adjust it to put less water into the ice cube tray?
1 Answer Rosie, With this issue it would be more likely that the icemaker is not leaking but would be that the drain on the freezer under the evaporator coil is frozen. You will want to check this and make sure that it is not frozen. Read More...
Joe December 29, 2017 for Model Number ED5KVEXVOoo whirlpool I ran a wire from my ice maker module V and L and the water valve is good so do I just have to replace my module on my ice maker I also ran a wire from T too H nothing happen
1 Answer Joe, If you jumped the T to H terminals properly, and the motor did not start or run, you'll need to replace the control module. " Short T and H with an insulated piece of 14 gauge wire to run the motor(make sure the probes go into the test point 1/2"). If the motor doesn't run, replace the module assembly. If the motor runs, replace the bi metal thermostat. " Thanks, Read More...

Steven H November 10, 2017 for Model Number ts22afxqk05 Where is the wiring disconnect to a estate ice maker? It is not the same as a whiripool ice maker.
1 Answer Steven, If you remove the cover of the icemaker, on the left side there is a tab you push to release the wiring harness of the icemaker. The wiring harness goes straight into the wall and is not a replaceable part. Read More...
Tom Oconnor October 27, 2017 for Model Number Ksra25cnss00 I bought a new ice maker from you and it still does not work. I Jumped the t and h on motor mod and nothing happens. If the water sol is bad will it keep the ice maker from working? Or getting power can I change the wires on sol from disp water to ice maker will that fool the ice maker to think the sol is good? Will the module on side of refrigerator, the on off that flashes red be bad? Thanks tom
1 Answer Tom, A faulty water solenoid wouldn't keep the ice maker from cycling. Power(120 vac) to the ice maker is supplied through the I/R sensor control boards W11629974. When you open the freezer door, look at the LED on the control on the right side of the opening. It should be on solid or not illuminated if the system is off, or in a harvest mode. If the LED is flashing, press in on the cover on the left side of the freezer compartment, the LED should be on , if it continues to flash, the control has failed and you'll need to replace the W11629974 Ice Level Power Control Board Kit.
