Sonny June 24, 2014 for Model Number GS2SHGXKT01 Thank you for responding back, I checked the flap and its closing perfectly, do you have any other suggestions ? Ice continues to form at the top of the chute area and in the dispensing area where the ice cubes come out. I'm using a heat gun to melt the areas every three or four days. Really hoping to correct this issue. Thank you. Lately within the freezer area ice has begun to build up on the ice chute dispensing area and also where the cubes exit the ice tray. I correct the problem by pouring very hot water on those areas, but the build up comes back in two to three days. Not sure what part needs to be replaced. We really like this refrigerator and would like to order whatever part it may need to correct this issue. Thank you Sonny Sonny for Model Number GS2SHGXKT01 ANSWER Hello Sonny. Check and see if the flap in the dispenser is broken. If so, you may need to order and replace the ice door kit 8201756. Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, June 23, 2014
1 Answer Hello Sonny. If that is closing and sealing, then you will need to look for a place where warm air is coming into the chute assembly. This is the cause of the frost. Read More...

1 Answer Hello John, This is an automatic icemaker. Basically this means that when the ice level gets up to the point that the bale arm cannot drop all the way back down, it is like an off switch and power is not supplied for the icemaker motor to cycle again. If it is not stopping in this manner, the icemaker off switch inside it is defective. Otherwise, the ice will build up so the bale arm cannot allow it to cycle. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Bernice, If we had the model number for your appliance from the I.D. tag, we could determine more accurately what is causing the issue. If the auger motor is making any sound, there could be an issue with the ice bin. If it is not making any sound, there could be an electrical issue. Either way, we need to know the model number to properly diagnose the issue. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...

J.T. June 03, 2014 for Model Number ETIFHMXLQ01 Ice maker has quit making ice. It made loud noises for weeks before it completely stopped working. My question is: Do you think Part # AP2984633 ice maker would be compatible with my whirlpool refrigerator. It looks very similar to the one I have. Model ETIFHMXLQ01. Thanks, J.T.
Jerry May 31, 2014 for Model Number KBFA25ERWH Icemaker leaks water into ice bucket, I replaced the water valve but I still have the same problem. What's next?
1 Answer Hello Jerry, You will need to verify sufficient water pressure is present at the water valve. If there is a crimped line or a valve stopping up with mineral deposits and sedimentation from the water supply, this can cause the water valve to close too slowly and make the icemaker overfill.

Alex May 27, 2014 for Model Number Kenmore 106.60939901 I was told this model is compatible with a Kenmore Refrigerator with an upper fridge, my model is 106.60939901. Talked to a live chat and they said it was but when when I used the compatibility option, just the model number, it said it was not compatible. So wondering what to do?
1 Answer Alex, since the manufacturer does not provide the parts information in the original parts breakdown our compatibility tool will not recognize the part as being compatible. According to the model itself, if you have already installed an icemaker in the unit and are only needing an icemaker, part number 4317943 is the correct replacement. Thanks! Read More...
1 Answer Mike, The amount of water to fill the icemaker is 4 to 4 1/2 oz or 130 to 140 cc. Read More...
Paula May 13, 2014 Our kitchen aid icemaker quit working it wouldnt dump the ice so we replaced the unit. The new ice maker will occassionally make ice maybe twice to three times a day. Why is it not making it more often. The old unit when working would make ice around 10-15 times a day.
1 Answer Hello Paula. Most of the time, the issue with slow harvest times is due to freezer temp. You need the freezer to be between 0 and 5° for the icemaker to cycle properly. Read More...
