Greg February 16, 2019 for Model Number WSF26C2EXY02 The icemaker specifically is W10122576 and my question is how to unplug the wiring harness cover for the power supply that connects the ice maker to the refrigerator power. It is oval in shape.
1 Answer Hello Greg, The small round style connector should simply pull straight out since the surrounding rubber part of the connector is a seal to help inhibit water infiltration. If it is, in fact, the rectangular one shown in the part illustration, there will be a locking tab on one side that, when released, will allow you to pull the connector out. Read More...

Henry420 September 16, 2018 for Model Number WSF26C2EXY02 We replaced our ice maker with WPW1025107 a year ago and over the past week, the cube has gotten about half size. We fill the system thru an RO and have tested and have adequate pressure (8oz in 9.5) seconds. Is there a water adjustment on this ice maker or is there some other adjustment needed.
1 Answer Henry420, Sometimes the fill tube on these units can start to freeze and reduce the fill. It should be a 7.5-second fill and a little less than 5 oz. Open your door and remove the cover from your icemaker and check the fill tube. If frozen let thaw and place a zip tie around the outer area of where the fill tube goes into the door. Read More...
Randy December 08, 2017 for Model Number WSF26C2EXY01 My ice maker will not make ice. I already replaced the ice unit and optics still no ice. Water valve also checks good and fill tube is not frozen. What could it be? Should the optics red light be on at all times? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Randy, If the optics light is on steady with the flapper pushed out of the way, the optics are operating properly. If the icemaker has been replaced and the fill tube is not frozen, the water valve WPW10258562 or water supply will be the issue. The water valve can test good electrically but that does not mean it is opening when energized. Read More...
Rich December 03, 2017 for Model Number WRS965CIAM01 My fridge has the icemaker in the door, part number W10122576. It has stopped making ice. There is a small amount of frozen water in the mold. I have good pressure and can fill an 8 oz. glass with water from the water dispenser. A couple of questions: Is is possible for the icemaker portion of the water inlet valve to be bad while the water dispenser portion of the water inlet valve is good? Also, the number on the icemaker in the fridge is W10122576, but I have also seen some websites which say WPW10251076 replaces W10122576. What is the difference, as W10122576 is significantly less cost than the WPW10251076, but the photos look exactly the same? Could this also be a problem with the ice level optics, as I don't see any lights when pulling out the bin and holding the door switches and bin flapper switch in.
1 Answer Rich, It is very possible that the water valve could have failed and you would need to cycle the ice maker and check the water valve to make sure that there is 120 vac getting to the valve. If there is not then this will be a faulty icemaker which would be part number WPW10251076 which comes with a new harness base plate. Read More...
Nat S. September 21, 2017 for Model Number WSF26C2EXW01 Not making ice. Water dispenser works fine. If I turn the power off and on again ice maker makes 2 ice cubes and stops. The freezer was set for 1°F. Actual freezer temperature is -10°F. Reset freezer temperature to 5° F. The, thermometer reading is still at -10°F. Should I replace the WPW10251076?
1 Answer Hello Nat, This is most likely caused by either low water pressure to the unit or the water valve WPW10238100. While it is possible for the icemaker WPW10251076 to cause this, it does not cause the issue nearly as often as the water pressure or valve. Read More...
Matthew August 03, 2017 for Model Number wpw10251076 Purchased new ice maker and have waited 48 hours still has not filled up with water. Any suggestions? Do you think unplugging the frig would help reset anything?
1 Answer Matthew, No, unplugging the refrigerator will not reset the ice maker. Check and make sure the wiring harness at the back wall is properly seated and locked in place, make sure you didn't accidentally push a pin out of the wall connector. You can use an insulated wire, stripped at both ends, insert the ends into the openings T and H, hold it there until the main gear on front starts to rotate a few seconds. when the rake arm reaches the 12 o'clock position check to see if you're getting 120 VAC to the ice maker solenoid from the ice maker.

Josiah July 08, 2017 for Model Number GSF26C5EXB02 The ice maker does not harvest the ice from the ice mold. It automatically fills up with water but doesn't ever push out the ice into the ice bin. After a period of time water is again sent to the ice mold and it overflows (due to the ice still in the mold) into the ice bin and out the door. I have replaced the ice maker (AP6017832) as recommended by the answers to similar issues but the same issue continues. Is there a control board or sensor that may not be telling the ice maker to harvest the ice that would actually be the issue?
1 Answer Hello Josiah, This is an issue with the icemaker assembly WPW10251076 since the ice mold has to heat up so it can cycle. There will also be an issue with the motor module inside the icemaker since the icemaker has to cycle around before voltage is sent to the water valve to refill. Read More...
Eric May 29, 2017 for Model Number 106.51713411 Trouble with the ice maker. . . . . W10122576 (Probably that one) Fridge claims to be made in 11 of 2015. Ice maker is making ice but. The lumps seem a little smaller than I expected and seem to get stuck under the white plastic "rake" on exit. That jams the machine. Any cure? This is the second ice maker. First replaced under warranty. Thank you for any suggestions you might have.
1 Answer Eric, If you haven't yet, do the "basic" checks, water filter recently replaced ? water pressure to refrigerator in range (32 to 35 PSI minimum recommended) a quick easy check, fill an 8 oz. glass of water in 10 seconds or less. If all's OK replace the ice maker assembly with part number WPW10251076 / W10251076. Here's why " Although a rare occurrence, under a variety of circumstances, the Ice Maker stripper and mounting bracket may cause interference with ice being ejected from the Ice maker mold. The ice cubes may get stuck and prevent further discharge of ice cubes. Order and Install a new Ice Maker Assembly to replace the production Ice Maker (New Ice Maker Assembly includes mounting bracket). Production Ice Maker (from Parts List) W10122576. New Ice Maker Assembly W10251076." Thanks, Read More...
Colin February 01, 2017 for Model Number Gsf26c4exwoo No ice. Have water replaced solonid as defective. Still no water to ice maker. Took apart small amount of old ice removed all looks ok no broken wires. Replaced no infra red light between on off switch, and flapper on opposite side of door still no water help!
1 Answer Hello Colin. If the valve and the sensors are new, you will need to make sure the fill tube is not frozen. If not, then the icemaker is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
