Customer Questions and Answers for Replacement Icemaker by Whirlpool

Jim, It's more likely you will need a fill valve W10408179 on the back of the refrigerator. As long as the ejector rake is in the 1 to 2 o'clock position, the ice maker is "OFF" until the thermostat closes and the ice maker advances through a harvest cycle. It's possible but not likely that you may have a "stuck" fill contact, in the ice maker control module.

Brett, You will want to check to make sure that the temp in the freezer compartment if below 10 degrees. The ice can freeze in the mold but if the temp does not get low enough to allow the thermostat to close then the icemaker will never cycle.

Sheila, The correct icemaker for your refrigerator is part number 4317943.

DJ, You will want to pull the icemaker out and check to see if the fill tube to the icemaker is frozen. If frozen then you will need to clear the fill tube and replace the water valve WP67005154.

Hello Banjo Boy. There is an on/off switch on the icemaker. Also, you may need to replace the filter in the unit and make sure the fill tube is not frozen on the unit.

John, Give the unit approximately 1 1/2 hrs to 2 hrs for the icemaker to cycle to see if water comes into the unit.

Kt, If you put a valve on the unit that was a known good valve and it was still overflowing then the valve would not be the issue. This unit does not have a built in filter. If the coating is chipping off the icemaker then you will want to replace the icemaker assembly.

Hello Jburke. Check and see if the fill tube is frozen on the unit. If so, you will want to make sure the temp in the freezer is 0° and that the water valve does not have a slow leak. If it does, replace the water valve on the unit.

Hello Terry. You will need to check and see if the fill tube for the icemaker is frozen and clogged with ice.

Mike, You could check the module on the front of the icemaker to see if the pins in the big wheel are broken. If they are then you would want to replace the module W10190935. Other than that it would sound more like a bad water valve not fully closing when done calling for water. Sticking water valve.
