Judy B May 06, 2014 for Model Number ED0GTQXKQ00 My icemaker is making too much ice. I have lifted the arm of icemaker up but it falls down and causes the ice to keep making. Do I have to replace whole icemaker or just a part?
Carol April 28, 2014 for Model Number jcd2389ge* The casing that holds the part that turns the coil in the ice maker to eject the ice is completely cracked and the part has dropped. It still makes ice but does not eject ice through the ice maker because this part does not stay stationary. Can the back plastic part that holds the ice coil turner be replaced and can a women do it? Thanks for your help.
1 Answer Hello Carol. No, you will need to order and replace the icemaker D7824706Q in the unit. Read More...
Dan April 22, 2014 for Model Number W10190972 The ice maker I received looks exactly like the one I am replacing except the new one is 230 volts and the old one is 115 volts. Will this be a problem?
1 Answer Dan, we'll need your model number to verify if the replacement icemaker is correct for your appliance. Please obtain this information and repost for further assistance. Thanks! Read More...
1 Answer Hello Gordie. Make sure the freezer is between 0° and 5°. You need to check and see if there is power going to the water valve when the icemaker cycles. If so, replace the water valve on the unit. If not, or the icemaker does not cycle, you will need to replace the icemaker on the unit. Also, check and make sure the fill tube on the unit is not frozen and clogged. If so, replace the water valve and thaw out the fill tube. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
David March 31, 2014 for Model Number ED5RHGXMT10 I bought a replacement ice maker but none of the wiring harness's work. The wires come straight out of the side of the freezer, no plug. How do I change this. The refrigerator came with the ice maker already equipped.
1 Answer Hello David. Remove the cover off the head of the icemaker. Then release the locking tab on the harness and unplug it from the icemaker. Once it is removed, you will plug the harness into the head of the new icemaker unit. Read More...
Brian March 30, 2014 for Model Number Whirlpool ED5NHGXNQ00 My icemaker fills, but will not cycle thru. for a while it would eventually dump them, but now does not kick them out. I don't even hear the motor trying anymore. Will a new complete icemaker end this or is there another switch somewhere else? thanks
1 Answer Hello Brian. If the icemaker is not cycling, but does fill with water, and the temp is 0 to 5°, you will need to replace the icemaker in the unit. Read More...
Mathew March 30, 2014 for Model Number ars366zbc Adjustment of cubes using white screw...I have it way out of adjustment. Looking at the front what reference can I use and which direction does what to the size of the cubes??? How does it change the cube size...by letting more water in or delay time after the thermostat senses it is time to evacuate the cubes by putting the heater on??? Thank you very much
1 Answer Mathew, You will want to turn the adjustment screw clockwise to reduce the cube size. You will not want to turn more than one complete rotation or it will damage the contacts. If after the adjustment the unit is still overfilling then either the water valve is not fully seating or the module on the icemaker is faulty. Read More...
Allan D. March 23, 2014 for Model Number Whirlpool ET14JKXDW00 Looking for replacement ice maker. Initial search yielded Add-on kit AP3122341 , but directed me to "ice maker only" AP2984633. It seems that that I only need the later, but don't understand the apparent increased price. Is there some reason I should order the ice maker only? The video appears to demo the exact part I have. Thank you. Allan deVilleneuve
1 Answer Hello Allan! It seems the model provided did not come equipped with an icemaker from the manufacturer. If an icemaker kit has already been installed on your unit and you need the icemaker only, you'll need to use part number 4317943. However, if an icemaker has never been installed on this refrigerator you'll need the entire kit with valve, bucket, etc- part number W11700559. Thanks. Read More...
Glenn V. March 22, 2014 for Model Number Kenmore 70834101 / Ice Maker 626636 Hi, The problem that I am having it doesn't seam the water coming to the ice maker is shutting off properly? If I replace the complete ice maker will this correct my problem? Thank you
1 Answer Hello Glenn, This is most likely the water valve WP2315576 causing the issue. Remember there is a chance that the contacts in the icemaker 4317943 module can be sticking but this does occur as frequently. Low water pressure to the water valve can also cause this complaint. Read More...
Barefoot March 17, 2014 for Model Number mzd2766geb The ice maker module motor is working observed the wheel and the ejector arm rotate, you can hear the water fill valve actuate and visibly see the water in the poly flow tube move into the freezer but no water in the ice tray. Removed the ice maker and checked the fill cup no blockage. Had replaced the fill valve 2 weeks ago and it worked until the other day any suggestions. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Barefoot. You will need to check the fill tube for the icemaker and see if it is frozen and clogged. If so, clean and thaw it out. If it is not frozen, you may need to replace the water valve on the unit. Read More...
