Michael September 06, 2016 for Model Number KFXS25RYMS4 Water leaking under refrigerator. Only happens every other day or so, but is large amount when it happens. I have narrowed it down to ice maker. Checked all lines feeding from water source and through out refrigerator. No leaks in lines or at valve locations. Ice maker is freezing and producing ice. Seems like it's getting too much water? When water is turned off to refrigerator...no leaks. When water is turned on, but ice maker is turned off...no leaks. Water dispenser works fine. Thanks for any ideas.
1 Answer Michael, Check and see if there is water accumulating under the deli drawer or the bottom of the refrigerator compartment. You may need to remove the panel in the right rear wall of the refrigerator compartment and check the fill valve and tubes for cracks, leaks etc. Check the condition of the ice cubes in the ice bin, are they frozen together or over sized ? this would also indicate a leak or overfill situation with the ice maker. Once you remove the rear panel, you'll see how the water supply tube is routed through a channel in the wall and up to the top of the refrigerator, and the water to the ice maker is dispensed through the ceiling of the "ice box" and into the ice maker.

Harold August 01, 2016 for Model Number GI6FARXXB06 Ice maker stopped making ice. Tray was full of ice, but not ejected. Pulled it out, took it apart, and saw that the connection on the back of the motor board to the heating element was fried. Can I buy just the motor board or should I just buy the whole ice maker to rule out other causes. Looking for the simplest replacement. Thanks.
Pete July 27, 2016 for Model Number GZ25FSRXYY2 Ice maker makes excessive ice and jams at the back of the unit, additionally makeup water continues to flow causing a flood, once ice is removed, icemaker works ok for a while and the problem repeats, never had a problem with the water dispenser during times when the icemaker malfunctioned, previously replaced icemaker and the unit worked well for a several months, but now the problem is getting more frequent, any suggestions? Thank you
1 Answer Pete, You will want to make sure that the icemaker bale arm is on the icemaker properly as this would cause the unit to overfill with ice. Also make sure that the flap that is on the icemaker bale arm is in place properly. If this checks ok then the icemaker would most likely be the issue. Read More...

Ken May 27, 2016 for Model Number Whirlpool G16farxxfo5 How do I remove ice maker on Whirlpool Model G16FARXXF05?
1 Answer Hello Ken. To replace the icemaker on this unit, you will remove the ice bin. On the left wall at the bottom there is a cover. Use a small screwdriver in the little hole to release the cover. Once released you will then disconnect the harness and push the lever on the side of the icemaker and slide out. On the bottom of the assembly there are 3 screws that you remove to take icemaker off the assembly. Read More...

Kenny May 04, 2016 for Model Number Maytag MFI2269VEM10 The ice maker doesn't make ice. Water comes out through the door. Ice maker is W10377151. I put a jumper across V and L and no water came up. Put my multimeter between V and L and got no voltage. Leaves me thinking the ice maker will need to be replaced but considering changing out the valve as well. What do you think? Thanks
1 Answer Kenny, Based on this information it does sound like the issue will be a faulty icemaker assembly. Read More...
Shannon April 15, 2016 for Model Number ice maker in whirlpool ref. gz25fsrxyy1 The ice maker has stopped working it was making an odd noise I couldn't hear it trying to draw water. The fan is still running and it is cold inside. From what I have read it sounds like either the water valve or the ice maker has gone out. How can I be sure what to replace? Thank you!
1 Answer Hello Shannon. Make sure the freezer is between 0° and 5°. You need to check and see if there is power going to the water valve when the icemaker cycles. If so, replace the water valve on the unit. If not, or the icemaker does not cycle, you will need to replace the icemaker on the unit. Also, check and make sure the fill tube on the unit is not frozen and clogged. If so, replace the water valve and thaw out the fill tube. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Joe February 07, 2016 for Model Number GI6FDRXXY09 I just installed a new ice maker and filled it with water to see if it would freeze the water and dump the ice in the tray. The ice was made but it will not dump the ice. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
1 Answer Joe, With this issue the most likely cause will be either you received a faulty icemaker or the control board on the unit is defective. Also check to make sure that the slide button for the icemaker is turned on. Read More...
