Ean March 10, 2016 for Model Number KSRB25FKSS14 The ice maker has stopped making ice... I have checked water inlet valve for continuity. It reads 325ohms at first, then drops and stays at 225ohms (still within range). I performed the LED light test, and that also checks out good. (Blink blink pause blink blink when door is open. Solid light when door is shut)... At this point I purchased and installed a new ice maker unit. I filled unit with water manually, and it did not pop the ice out or cycle at all. Should I have not manually filled the ice maker? Would that have hindered the unit from its cycle? What should be my next step?
Larry March 08, 2016 for Model Number ED5GHEXNQ00 I replace the ice maker should I see water fill up right away
1 Answer Larry, When installing a new icemaker the water will not fill right away and you will need to give it at least 1 to 2 hours to get cold enough to cycle and fill with water. Read More...
Scott February 27, 2016 for Model Number Whirlpool 106.59202990 I just replaced the icemaker and the filter housing for my frig a couple of days ago. It has not produced any ice yet. Is there something else I need to do?
1 Answer Scott, You will want to check to make sure that the fill tube that comes into the icemaker is not frozen. If the fill tube is frozen then this will cause the unit to not make ice and you will want to clear the ice. If the fill tube is not frozen then using a insulated jumper wire you will want to put the jumper between the T and H and this will put the icemaker into a cycle. After you hear the second click remove the jumper wire. You will then need to check at the water valve to make sure that there is 120 vac getting to the valve when the icemaker fingers rotate to about the 11:30 position. Read More...
Kevin February 20, 2016 for Model Number KBFA25ERSS01 Water is not coming out of the water dispenser on the left inside of the refrigerator. What might be wrong and what part might we need? Thank you
1 Answer Hello Kevin, The most likely cause of this would be the water reservoir in the bottom of the fresh food compartment freezing up. You can heat the reservoir with a hair dryer for about 15 minutes and re-try. If this corrects the issue, set the fresh food compartment colder to increase the air circulation which will prevent the cold air from settling to the bottom of the compartment. If this does not correct the issue you should check the switch in the dispenser. Read More...
Leo B February 10, 2016 for Model Number FRS24ZRHW3 BAIL FROM OLD ICE MAKER DOES NOT FIT IN NEW ICE MAKER. WHAT NOW?
Leo February 09, 2016 for Model Number FRS24ZRHW3 IS THERE A SHUTOFF VALVE FOR WATER SUPPLY TO THE ICE MAKER?
1 Answer Hello Leo. No, the shut off is located in the supply line coming to the unit. You will need to check your supply line. There is a water valve 218832401 for the icemaker that turns the water off to it. Read More...
Pat February 06, 2016 for Model Number Part no. D7824706Q Which way do I turn small plastic screw on side of new ice maker to make smaller ice cubes?
1 Answer Hello Pat, Turning the adjustment screw clockwise decreases the water fill. Maximum adjustment is one full turn in either direction. ADDITIONAL ROTATION COULD DAMAGE THE MODULE. Read More...
George February 04, 2016 for Model Number JFC2089HES, REF-BTM FRENCH DOOR Jenn-Air Fridge... Frozen ice mass is forming in bottom of Ice Bucket making cubes hard to remove. Removal of Rear Panel also reveals large collection of ice in upper RH corner above Evaporator Coil which is also iced-over. There is some thought that the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) #12656019 may be at fault in that it may not be sending proper defrost signal to the Evaporator Coil. May be that the PCB is the culprit rather than the Ice Cube Maker. What's your take on this situation before I order the wrong part?
1 Answer George, If the ice is near the water fill tube then it would not be a issue of the control board causing this. This would most likely be a frozen fill cup on the icemaker and froze fill tube causing backup and the ice to overflow. This would be more likely an issue of the water valve seeping. If the valve is seeping it will cause water to trickle into fill cup and cause it to flash freeze. This will in turn cause the water to start flowing into the ice bin and the icemaker will not get proper water and will cycle more frequently and cause the effects to intensify. Read More...
Riverton February 03, 2016 for Model Number 4317943 Is there a water flow control on the ice maker unit?
1 Answer Riverton, There are two methods of water flow control to an ice maker. The water valve has a 'flow washer" inside the valve body when the valve is produced. this limits the amount of water that can enter and pass through the valve. Then, the ice maker has a "timed fill" increment. the timer motor and cam will "close" when the fill increment is reached this will supply power to the fill valve solenoid for 7 to 10 seconds which allows 4 to 4.5 oz. of water to enter and fill the ice maker mold and start the making of cubes.

Kira January 26, 2016 for Model Number 59676593600 Just replaced the ice maker in our freezer because it stopped working. All went well but noticed the wiring plugs into the refrigerator in either direction. Black wire on top (how I currently have it plugged in) or black on the bottom. I just did it a few minutes ago so no ice yet. Does it matter which way it's plugged in? Just want to make sure I didn't do something wrong.
1 Answer Hello Kira, It appears that the black wire in the harness WPD7813010 will be on top when connected properly. Read More...
