Jesus February 18, 2017 for Model Number MTF1972HRB I replaced the water valve.....still on ice..them replaced the ice maker and ..still no ice...there is water going to the valve..what can I check...
1 Answer Jesus, You will want to pull the icemaker out and check to make sure that the fill tube is not frozen over. If it is then clean out the ice and it should work. If not then check the thermal fuse on the icemaker wire harness for continuity. If there is no continuity then the harness is faulty and would need replaced. The part number for the harness is WP61001882. Read More...
Mary February 15, 2017 for Model Number AP4135008 I ordered the replacement ice maker and we got it put in with no problem. Now when I go to get ice it will drop a few pieces and then it sounds like it grinding and want drop anymore. Any idea what is going on? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Mary. Check and see if the cubes are small and they are binding the fingers of the icemaker. If so, you will need to replace the water valve on the unit also. Read More...
1 Answer Hello J.D., You need to determine whether water is leaking from the icemaker mold or if the water valve is not closing and overfilling it. If you could please post a new question and include the model number from the units' I.D. tag, we can help to diagnose and provide part numbers that will work and fit properly on your unit.

Dave February 05, 2017 for Model Number Maytag MFD2561HES My ice freezes together in the front corner of the ice bin, almost as if water is dripping on the ice and freezing it together. I haven't been able to see any leaking though. Any ideas?
1 Answer Dave, This issue would most likely be caused by a issue with the icemaker mold deterioration which would cause the icemaker to leak. The part that would be needed is the icemaker D7824706Q. Read More...
Diane February 02, 2017 for Model Number KSSS36QDX02 I am trying to replace my ice maker. I have a new unit that did not come with a new wiring harness. Also, my existing harness doesn't look like any of the ones that I see offered. The freezer side of my harness goes into a flat round plastic part that does not want to come loose from the semi-rigid plastic airflow panel. It's possible that the harness is still good, but the thermal fuse on my harness is not in the correct position to fit into the metal clip on the ice maker. It's off by about an inch. Can the clip be moved on the ice maker? It doesn't seem to want to slide, but I am reluctant to force it.
1 Answer Hello Diane, You can move the clip if you are careful not to damage the heater tube. You should be able to pull it straight out with a pair of pliers and tap it back in the slot in the correct position for the fusible link to be held in place. Read More...

2 Answers Kevin, With the unit filling with water and not stopping just as soon as it is plugged in then this would be a faulty water valve. Read More...

2 Answers KT, With "new water inlet tubing installed" you should have enough water supply to the refrigerator (20 - 30 psi recommended), you may want to check it though. Then replace the water inlet valve WP2315576 / 2315576. If the water supply is good, then the solenoid plunger is "sticking" open, or there is debris or sediment developed on the internal components causing the problem. Read More...
Lynn January 26, 2017 for Model Number HMG21147 I have an Admiral HMG21147 and this looks like my ice maker, same mounting, wiring, cover, etc. and I was wondering if it will replace the unit in this refrigerator.
Charlie January 24, 2017 for Model Number ARS266ZBC My Amana ARS266ZBC icemaker is leaking water creating ice dams in the icemaker bin. Is the problem the ice maker if not what do you suggest.
1 Answer Hello Charlie. If the icemaker is overfilling, replace the water valve. However, if the icemaker is leaking, just replace the icemaker. Read More...
Russ7172 January 11, 2017 for Model Number Gdrvaxvy00 My ice maker does not keep up with demand, it makes and freezes the ice but just does not keep up. The red light next to the on off switch is flashing and I was wondering if that is telling me something. My model is GDRVAXVY00 and is a whirlpool. Thanks for your help.
1 Answer Russ7172, The icemaker will make 8 cubes every 1 1/2 to 2 hours. The red light will flash when you open the door and when you close the flapper on the left side it will glow solid. This means it is working normally. Read More...
