Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Icemaker (Part Number: OEM18091938)

Mike May 10, 2021 for Model Number MFF2558VEB8

I have a bottom freezer and the ice maker does not harvest fell sizes cubes and very light harvest. It does make ice but not much. What would my best option?

1 Answer

Mike, Normally when an ice maker is not making full-size cubes and not producing much ice then this would be either the temperature in the freezer is not quite cold enough. It should be between 0 and 5 degrees. Check to make sure that there is not low water pressure and make sure that the fill tube is not freezing over. If all this checks ok then the icemaker would be the issue.

Joe April 18, 2021 for Model Number W10884390 (AP6030643)

How do I take off the front cover of the ice maker? Thanks.

1 Answer

Joe, on the bottom, you should find a slot that a screwdriver will pop the front loose.

Thomas March 02, 2021

The ice maker has been working well for a number of weeks since installation. Overnight it seems to have stopped mid harvest and won't continue. I was able to take the ice out by hand (it was basically standing up), but the make won't seem to continue. Is there something to troubleshoot or should I unplug the unit and plug it back in to see if it resets?

1 Answer

Thomas, if the model number of your appliance could be provided in a new question, this will allow the most accurate information to be presented.

Thomas February 01, 2021 for Model Number WRF535SMBM00

I ordered the ice maker replacement AP6030643. I installed yesterday and nothing is happening. I replaced the make in kind, plugged in the unit. The arm, upon arrival, was not connected to anything on the "drive" side. I assume it goes in the small white circular section of the "drive" side. The arm does not go down very far, perhaps I am doing something wrong?

1 Answer

Hello Thomas, yes, the bail arm connects to the backside of the module assembly, the icemaker is set by the manufacturer to be about 3/4 through the cycle so that once connected and powered it will finish the cycle and power the water valve so yes the bail arm will not be in the full down position. Lastly, on your model the ice maker is only powered through the freezer door light /interlock switch, the switch has to be held in or door closed to power the ice maker.

Jeff Pierce January 13, 2021 for Model Number WRB322DMBM00

I had to replace my ice maker recently, bought replacement installed, nothing stored in ice bin and ice bin kept in original location. Now ice maker will not stop making ice unless manually lift arm up to locked off position.Any ideas or suggestions?

1 Answer

Jeff, If the icemaker is not shutting off without putting the arm up then this would be an issue in the icemaker itself.

Shopteacher October 11, 2020 for Model Number WRB322DMBW

Edwin September 15, 2020 for Model Number W10884390

Installed new ice maker yesterday and it started making ice in just a few hrs. Made 5 or 6 ice drops the haven’t dropped any ice in probably 10 hrs. Whirlpool freezer settings are 1 to 7 and its set at 4.

1 Answer

Hello Edwin, check the freezer temperature is 0-5 deg, the ice maker wiring connections are secure, the door is closing the light switch fully, there should be ice in the ice maker's mold, if its dry there is a water fill problem.

Larry August 13, 2020 for Model Number KBFS22EWBL7

Just watched your video on how to change thermostat on ice maker. There was no mention of turning water supply off first. Do you need to, or is there some kind of check valve ythat shuts upon removal of unit?

1 Answer

Hello Larry, the water valve is opened electrically by the ice maker during a harvest/fill cycle. Normally not necessary to shut off the water for icemaker repairs.

Samar July 17, 2020 for Model Number kitchenaid

Can I replace the W10377152 Icemaker unit with W10793297?

1 Answer

Samar, as the most up to date version of the icemaker W10377152 is going to be part number W10884390, we would only be able to recommend the newest version as a replacement.

Tom July 13, 2020 for Model Number JFC2290VEM8

My original equipment ice maker is W10377152. Whirlpool seems to have discontinued selling this part and replaced it with W10884390 (AP6030643). However the motor cap on the replacement is taller and longer, making the unit too tall to mount properly in the freezer. Plus you cannot remove the motor cap/end cap to troubleshoot the unit. Is the original equipment ice maker still available?

1 Answer

Tom, the manufacturer has made updates to the ice maker W1377152 and the most up to date revision of that ice maker is part number W10884390. As this is the case, the manufacturer no longer produces the earlier version.
