Steve April 01, 2013 for Model Number GD5AXPHAB00 I replaced the timer on the ice maker and I have water coming from the bottom of the ice maker. It's making ice just fine and the ice doesn't look oversized or irregular. Is there a ajustment on the timer (motor) that will lower the water level?
1 Answer Steve, There is a little white screw on the side for adjustment. You will want to check the icemold for deterioration which will cause leaking. Read More...
Mary Jo March 26, 2013 for Model Number Amana AFD2535DEW The front of the ice maker is making "stalagtite" ice only from front 2 chambers. Ice is regular size and amount from rest of tray. Do I need to replace?
1 Answer Mary Jo, The hollow cubes is an indication that there is not enough water flow coming into the icemaker. This is normally caused by a water filter that needs to be changed or if the filter has been changed it may not be fully seated in the housing. Read More...
Richard B March 23, 2013 for Model Number SSD25ET The plastic water line ln the back of my Amana refrigerator is leaking. The leak is at the top where it goes in to the back of the refrigerator. It appear the joint seal has failed. It mght be high density poly. Can the be repaired or does it need to be replaced? If it can be repaired what is the recommended adhesive? It is 16 years old and it was fortunate that we were not qway on vacation, or could haved had serious. Shoud these plastic tubes be replaced due to age. Thanks Richard
1 Answer Richard, There was not type of adhesive for the water tube. If the water tube is not brittle then it can still be used. The most common cause of the water tube popping out of the fill tube is the fill tube being frozen. You will want to check this and if it is then you will need to replace the water valve which is seeping. If the fill tube is frozen clear and you can reinsert the water tube back into the fill tube. The clamp that is on it helps to keep the tube in place unless the fill tube is frozen and pressure causes it to pop loose. Read More...
Charlie March 20, 2013 for Model Number afd2535dew 8 year old refrigerator, ice maker quit working, fill bar is down and filtered water to glass filler works fine. Where do I start?
1 Answer Hello Charlie. 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...
Raymond March 19, 2013 for Model Number MSF22C2EXW00 I have a 6 stage RO water treatment system and the ice cubes are milky. I was told that the ice maker is a drip tray type and that this is characteristic for this type ice maker. I was also told that the fill tray type ice maker makes crystal clear ice cubes; is there a fill tray ice maker that I can retrofit into my refrigerator?
1 Answer Raymond, This icemaker is not a drip tray style icemaker. It is a mold fill tray. Milky cubes would represent that the water coming in is not pure like it is not hooked up to the RO system. Not aware of any type of drip tray style icemakers other than icemachines would be considered that style because they run the water across an evaporator to freeze the water. Read More...

Leo March 13, 2013 for Model Number kichenaid ref ksfs20qewho I'm having trouble with the ice maker. It will not fill on its own, but will make and dump cubes if I fill it. I also switched the wires from water in the door- icemaker & I could fill the tray by holding water button and it would cycle and make cubes.I think this would eliminate the fill valve ? Could it be in the controler and would a replacement ice maker kit be the best route
1 Answer Hello Leo. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the icemaker kit 4317943 is bad and will need to be replaced in the unit. Read More...
Jerry March 12, 2013 for Model Number KSSP42QHS00 I replaced the ice maker. How long after water and power is turned on before water goes into the new tray?
1 Answer Jerry, It will take a couple of hours normally before you start seeing ice drop into bin. Once the thermostat is satified on the icemaker and the sensor allows it to cycle it will put water in and then ice will drop about 1 1/2 after it fills. Read More...
Jerry March 12, 2013 for Model Number KSSP42QH00 After the ice trays fills it drips at the end where the motor is. Does the water level screw need to be adjusted?
1 Answer Hello Jerry. Make sure the icemaker is not bad and leaking in the unit. Also, make sure the valve is not bad and allowing in to much water. You can try adjusting the screw, but you can only adjust it a little. If it still leaks, then there is a parts issue with the unit. Read More...
