C December 26, 2013 for Model Number 106.54273300 serial # sp1944733 The ice crusher and the ice cube maker will not dispense....although the crusher doesn't seem to work at all.....it just grinds, and to get the cubes I have to open the door and dig them out of the bin..... It has an auger I think.....
1 Answer Hello C. Check and see if the ice bucket WPW10312300 is broken in the unit. If so, and the auger does not turn, but the motor does, you will need to replace the bucket assembly. Read More...
Joe M. December 20, 2013 for Model Number 106.76232402 My ice maker is not making ice. I replaced the water valve and it stopped working. I ran water out of water the dispenser. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Joe, If you have verified that you correctly hooked the wires back up to the water valve, you should force the ice maker to cycle and see if it fills. Also, check the fill tube for clear ice that could be blocking the water inlet. Read More...
Rob December 09, 2013 for Model Number MSD2456GE Hello, I have this model ice maker in my Maytag refrigerator. It recently stated to make noise when going through it's cycles but still was working. Then one night the water valve must have stayed open and I had a flood coming from the ice maker. I had to turn the water off at it's source. I suspect that the maker itself got stuck supplying voltage to the water valve constantly. I think I need a new ice maker itself but also want to be sure that the water valve is ok. What can I do to test the water valve itself? I hesitate to turn back on the water though.
1 Answer Hello Rob. Test for power to the water valve. If there, replace the icemaker and valve. If no voltage, just replace the water valve. 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...

Jane November 19, 2013 for Model Number Jenn air jcd2389 dt Test No. 1: Make sure the freezer is between 0° and 5°. Result: MY freezer temperature is correct. Test No. 2: You need to check and see if there is power going to the water valve when the icemaker cycles. Q1: I am ready to do the multi-meter test. How can I tell when the icemaker is cycling? Q2. Is the power AC or DC? How many volts? 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. Test No. 3: 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. Result: I checked the fill tube. It is ok.
1 Answer Hello Jane. You are looking for AC voltage and you must force cycle the icemaker to test for the voltage. Use a jumper wire and jump T and H on the unit to start the harvest process. Read More...
Paul November 18, 2013 for Model Number MZD2665HEB My icemaker worked fine for a number of years, but lately it has been problamatic. It works well most of the time then it stops. I remove it, take out the frozen cubes, remount it and it starts working again. This last for awhile, time varies, then it stops again. Would this be the thermostat or the maker itself? Also, what is the time span between when the tray fills with water and ice cubes form and are dispensed? Thanks

John Doe November 09, 2013 for Model Number Mff2557KES How do I install the Cup Fill part #W10122561 on the Ice Maker Part # D7824706Q
1 Answer John, To install a fill cup on your D7824706q icemaker you will need to take the cover off and remove the motor module by removing the 3 screws. Then you will take 2 screws from the black housing under the module. Once this is out you will need to take the rake fingers out and then take out the fill cup. Read More...

Robert October 31, 2013 An ice cycle forms in my icemaker. It appears that water flows into the bin in a steady stream and freeze forming an ice cycle.
1 Answer Hello Robert. If the icemaker is overfilling, replace the water valve. However, if the icemaker is leaking, just replace the icemaker. Read More...
