Kevin August 08, 2011 for Model Number msd2652keu My ice maker has been making hollow ice cubes since day one. The paddles get covered with water and freeze up. Is there an ajustment for the amount of water in the tray? If so, where would it be?
1 Answer Hello Kevin! Remove the cover of the icemaker. There is an adjustment screw on the right side of the control module. Turn the screw counter-clockwise to adjust the water level. Hope this helps! Read More...
Patty August 07, 2011 for Model Number ED5GTQXKQ00 When filling the Ice maker water squirts every where and creates a icy mess. What ever water gets into the unit takes 8 to 12 hrs. before the ice drops out to the tray. Sometimes if water stays in the water fill tube it just freezes. Should I replace the whole unit and if so, whats the model # for the unit and everything I need to order?
1 Answer Patty, It doesn't sound like an icemaker problem, not yet anyway, sounds more like a fill valve problem 4318046 or low water supply/pressure. You may want to flush the water supply line to the fridge when you replace the water valve. Thanks and Good Luck. Read More...

Rich August 07, 2011 for Model Number AFD2535Dew The ice maker started over filling slightly from the front end a few weeks ago, then it stopped making ice, when I looked at it I saw that the rear most ice cube was jamed again, this has happened at least twice before, so I removed the unit and thawed it out, after I reinstalled the unit this time it did not work, is it just the icemaker or do I also need a valve.
1 Answer Rich, You want to start with the water inlet valve WP67005154 , based on your post description. You also want to make sure both, the refrigerator is level or slightly(1/4 to 3/8 inch. higher in the front), the icemaker itself, should also be level in both directions. Good Luck and Thanks.

Mike August 04, 2011 for Model Number ed25rfxfw00 My original question dealt with my icemaker, and your answer was for a replacement of the water intake valve. Now my question is can it be cleaned, or does it need to be replaced? Maybe it is just clogged or partially clogged!
1 Answer Hello Mike. If the water valve is bad, you can not take it apart and clean it. You will need to replace the water valve W10408179. If you take it apart and clean it, it can cause the unit to leak worse. Hope this helps. Read More...
Mike August 04, 2011 for Model Number ed25rfxfw00 Water fills tray, but it seems to over fill them and the tray freezes up and won't dump. Then the water won't completely shut off and continues to drip in. It sounds like a washer or gasket problem. Can it be fixed without replacing the whole unit?
1 Answer Hello Mike. If water continues to drip into the icemaker, after the icemaker has completed the cycle, you will need to replace the water valve W10408179. Hope this helps. Read More...
Ronda August 02, 2011 for Model Number GS5SHAXNQ02 (Conquest) I removed a bag of veggies from behind icemaker. Felt like ice was in the tray but not ejecting out. Could I have jammed the icemaker? How can I remove the icemaker to clean it?
1 Answer Hello Ronda. On the right side of the icemaker at the bottom back corner, there is a 1/4" screw. Remove the screw and slide off the cover it secures. Then on the left side under the icemaker there is a clip. Press in on the clip and slide the icemaker forward. You will need to hold the flap on the left side of the freezer closed to remove the icemaker. Once removed, you will unplug the wires for the icemaker 4317943. Reinstall in reverse order. Hope this helps. Read More...
Marilyn V. August 02, 2011 for Model Number srd2553E auger works fine but edges on bin are broken preventing it from fitting securely in slots. are replacement bins available and if so, what part number do I order?
1 Answer Marilyn, A "complete" bin assembly is not available for your refrigerator. You will need to order the bin assembly WP10111905 and transfer all the other components to the new bin. It's a doable project, if you take your time and use caution with the parts. Thanks and Good Luck. Read More...
Dustin July 31, 2011 for Model Number 95 model?? kenmore The unit has a standard ice maker and the water wont fill. I can only suppose that the water valve is bad and needs replacing. Just wanted to confirm my suspicion. The water just wont go to the ice maker, water works fine.
1 Answer Hello Dustin. Cycle the icemaker and see if it sends power to the water valve. If so, and the water valve does not work, you will need to replace the water valve. If there is no power to the water valve, you will need to replace the icemaker 4317943. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps.http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Joah July 31, 2011 for Model Number AP2984633 The feeding line from the pump to the ice maker on the back of my fridge has been punctured and has a slight rip. I've been looking for a suitable replacement for this line and cannot find one. What tubing should I use to replace this? I've been trying to find a way to disconnect the tubing from the bottom of the water pump as well, is there a trick to this? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Joah! The water tube that connects to the icemaker assembly 4317943 is part number W10823511. To remove the existing tubing from the inlet valve you will press in on the fittings and the tubing will pull out. Thanks! Read More...
