1 Answer Hello Vinny. You will open the freezer door and remove the 1/4" screws on the back right hand side under the icemaker tray. Then remove the cover the screw was securing in place. Once removed, you will release the tab on the left side and slide the assembly forward. Be careful and tape closed the flap on the left side of the freezer so you don't break it. Once removed, you will unplug the wires going to the icemaker. Now you can access and remove the screws securing the icemaker to the tray. Reinstall with the new icemaker 4317943 in reverse order. Hope this helps. Read More...
Don C. December 11, 2011 for Model Number Mzd2665heb The ice maker works, but water is dripping into the tray and freezing the cubes and agitator, and it won't dispense ice once it freezes. Have looked at most of the q and a's, and have determined the ice maker needs replaced. Wanted to confirm my findings.
1 Answer Hello Don. Check and make sure the water valve is not causing the unit to overflow and drip into the bin. If the valve is good, you will need to replace the icemaker D7824706Q. Hope this helps. Read More...

Michael C. December 10, 2011 for Model Number Kenmore model 106, side by side I removed the ice maker and found a stuck ice cube which was causing a malfunction. In trying to reinstall it, I do not know which way the two small silver brackets that are attached to the freezer wall go.
1 Answer Hi Michael/ The 2- ice maker side tabs are used to first clip the ice maker onto the side wall brackets or screws. Did you remove screws at the side / top of the ice maker ? If there are any screw bosses on the side of the cabinet, only use 1/2 " screws to remount the ice maker . The bottom Fwd lower metal bracket on the ice maker is bolted to the side of the cabinet. Make sure the ice maker is level so your ice cube fills are normal. Thank You. Read More...
John December 03, 2011 for Model Number MTB 2448 DRW Regarding brown sediment in ice maker: definitely not plastic or brass and definitely not 30 years old. This might be the refrigeration line. In the pictures for Part AP2984633, there is a bottom view of a U-shaped tube. That is where the sediment is dripping---where that tube goes into the control(?) box on the front (toward the reefer door).
1 Answer John, OK, The "U" shaped tube in the diagram, is the mold heater. If that is rusted or has sediment dripping from it, that would be an issue in the icemaker mold, or the icemaker is overfilling, slightly. Start by replacing the ice maker. Thanks for the clarification, Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
John December 02, 2011 for Model Number 10659262990 ice maker on my kenmore first water wouldn't shut off unless i shut ice maker off manually replaced valve seem to have fixed that problem. water is dripping just a little bit from front of ice maker over a period of time 2 or 3 cycles a little ice sickle starts and contiues to grow this was happening before water wouldn't shut off water coming from bottom of ice maker.
1 Answer John, a couple of things to look for. Make sure the ice maker itself is level in both directions. Remove the front cover and make sure the two lower mounting screws, on the control head are tight. Then slightly adjust the water level/fill time on the control head, turn the adjustment screw( on the right side of the control head) 1/2 turn (at a time) clockwise to reduce the water level in the mold. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
John Ashbrook December 02, 2011 for Model Number Maytag MTB2448DRW Regarding question about brown sediment in ice maker. The water tube seems to be aluminum rather than brass or plastic. The sediment/seepage seems to be coming out of one end....is there supposed to be an outlet on one end, or has the tube corroded through?
1 Answer John, There's the issue. No manufacturer uses metal fill tube grommets any more, or in the recent past(30 to 40 years). Here is the grommet/fill tube assembly that should be in your refrigerator WP61005940. You'll need to order and repalce it. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
John Ashbrook November 30, 2011 for Model Number Maytag MTB 2448 DRW My icemaker drips a small amount of brown sediment into the ice during defrost. Looks like it's coming from the end of the U-shaped water supply tube. Ice making production is normal and there is no other leakage. How can I stop this?
1 Answer John, The issue is not in the refrigerator. All the water carrying components are either Brass or Plastic, and don't usually rust. Any brown sediment or particles would be atributable to the water supply and plumbing, you may want to install an inline filter assembly 19950155 . As you mentioned the discoloration seems to be from the fill tube, so I would not suspect the ice maker mold, to be an issue at this point . Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Mark November 29, 2011 for Model Number TS22AFXKQ00 My ice maker started to make ice more and more slowly over the last several months and now it has stoped all together. Should I replace the ice maker with the replacement kit?
1 Answer Hello Mark. If the icemaker is not cycling properly, you will need to replace the icemaker 4317943. Check and make sure the fill tube is not frozen on the unit. Hope this helps. Read More...
