David P Chattanooga , TN October 07, 2024 Appliance: KitchenAid Refrigerator KSCS25FVMS03 Ice dispenser not dispensing ice driveshaft not spinning but motor starting The existing motor would come on when you pushed the door paddle for ice, but ice would not dispense. Determined there was an issue in the drivetrain. Had to replace the motor and gearbox assembly for the ice dispenser driveshaft. Also found a cracked driveshaft seal where the shaft enters the freezer compartment. Replacement parts fit perfect and now dispensing ice! Read More...

The motor an washer arrived sooner than expected, and my ice dispenser is working again. Read More...
