Tonny August 19, 2019 for Model Number WHRILPOOL MODEL # AMA02444861 I discovered that I needed to replace the icemaker. The challenge is: When I disconnected the wire hardness from the refrigerator, I'd neglected to see the position in which the wire hardness was connected. I'm concerned that I might plug it back in and cause damage to the components. Is there a right and wrong way to plug it back together?
1 Answer Hello Tonny,the ice maker wiring harness connector ends should be a one-way type of connector, they will only connect the correct way, unplug the refrigerator when connecting the harness. If you need further help please repost the question and recheck the model number as it shows as invalid. Read More...
Jack May 14, 2019 I have a 1998 Whirlpool refrigerator. It has an icemaker that needs to be replaced. The refrigerator wiring harness has a 4 prong male end. I want to connect that to a new icemaker. Does anybody make a new icemaker with compatible connections or do they make a jumper connector that will convert the 1998 Whirlpool to a new icemaker?
1 Answer Jack, the ice maker [4317943] may work for your refrigerator. However, without comparing to your appliances model number it can not be guaranteed. If you could provide the model number in a new inquiry, this will allow for the most accurate information possible. Read More...
Michael March 21, 2019 for Model Number Hotpoint ( a GE Company) I have an older Hotpoint Refrigerator . I also have an Ice make from a different refrigerator. The ice maker has a 4 pin male connector. The Fridge has a 6 prong 3 over 3 female connector. Is there a way to wire the 4 prong connector to the 6 prong female or maybe an adapter I could buy? ....or will this not work? Thanks!!!
1 Answer Michael, Unfortunately there would be no way to convert the wire harness of the refrigerator to use on the icemaker. Read More...
Greg February 06, 2018 for Model Number WRT21GRA I have a White Westinghouse refrigerator built in 1991 that I wish to add an ice maker to but can't find the proper part. There is a 3 pin connector on the back of the refrigerator where the power comes in that would seem to be where the ice maker would connect. There is no existing place for a water line connection. The unit is made to add an ice maker to. I ordered what I thought was the proper ice maker for the refrigerator but it has an 8 pin connector which use 4 of the pins with 4 empty. It did not come with a water valve that I am sure I need since there is none on the refrigerator and needs to be added. I don't have a problem with that, I just need an ice maker that will connect to the 3 pin female plug that has the water valve with it.
1 Answer Greg, The part number for the icemaker that you would need is IM34 which is a complete icemaker kit with the wiring harness and the valve. Read More...
Dave Ellis November 26, 2017 I am replacing my ice maker assembly, model # 2198597. I have watched all of the videos on how to but I would like to know if there is only one way for the wiring harness to plug or could you plug it in backwards. Basically, I am referring to the end that connects to the connect coming out of the refrigerator. The ice maker makes ice incremental and I have noticed ice sickles hanging from the bottom of the tray. I also intend to change the water inlet valve at the same time.
1 Answer Dave, There is only one way to install the wiring harness. You will want to check to make sure that the fill tube is running water into the fill cup and make sure that the fill cup is not frozen. Read More...
Clark M November 18, 2017 for Model Number ksrd22fkss04 I bought the replacement ice maker with controller for my ksrd22fkss04 a few weeks ago. Because the wiring in the KitchenAid mode goes directly into the wall of the freezer, I had to splice the New wiring harness—to the old wiring coming from the wall. Ice maker is still not working. Is the wiring's electronic features different for each ice maker model? Or is there another reason?
1 Answer Clark, The wiring should be the same as long as the wires are connected same color to same color. Also check to make sure that the water valve is getting 120 vac when the icemaker cycles. Read More...
John September 13, 2017 for Model Number KBLO36FMX01 Need wiring harness 2187715, bad fuse, harness no longer made. what harness can I use in its place, or what harness can I buy and splice the same size fuse in to the original harness.
1 Answer Hello John. Sorry, 2187715 has been permanently discontinued by the manufacturer and we don't know of any source or replacement for the part. Read More...
John Jones August 29, 2017 for Model Number Whirlpool ED2PHEXNQ00 I have no power in my ice maker wiring harness. I have looked and it doesn't look like the harness plugs into the refridgerator it looks like it runs into the side of the refridgerator thru a rubber grommet but it doesn't want to pull out. How do I remove it and what is the part number for the harness?
1 Answer John, The harness does not come out as it is wired into the unit itself. Check the white fuse that is on the black line and see if there is continuity for it. If there is not then this will be a fuse issue and you can get harness WP2187464 and cut the fuse out and splice into the original harness. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Phillip, You will need to follow the power cord to the harness and see where the voltage is being lost. Read More...
Phillip July 06, 2017 for Model Number GSC25C4EYY000 Can you tell me why my Ice Maker is not getting power from the wire harness plug in the door that plugs into the ice maker harness? V/r, Phillip
1 Answer Hello Phillip. You will need to make sure the inline fuse in the harness W10242384 is not bad. If not, then make sure the emitter boards W10870822 W11813704 are good. Read More...
