Ice maker fill tube freezing up
For a year the filler tube would freeze up and stop all water flow. I would remove it and use a heat gun on it. I decided that the fill valve was leaking after 20y and actually saw drops coming out of the tube when the valve was off. So I watched the videos and ordered the parts. So far no freezing up and working as originally. The valve kit came with all the parts I needed to replace and reconnect the plastic and copper tubing connections. Very pleased with the outcome after a week as well as the videos and complests parts needed. The fill tube didn’t need shorthing and was used as it came. Adding, easy to replace and connect to the water supply line. My refrigerator location made the repair a little difficult ( small kitchen) but with patience it all went well. Not as difficult if access to the back side is easier. Not the fault of the parts supplied! Also to mention, I vacuumed out 20 years of dust from the coils while I had the back off. Same for the front side. A must do often to extend the life and air circulation.

The Ice maker would not work.
We rolled the refrigerator out away from the wall and it was obvious where the break was located. We took out the old water spout for the ice maker and replaced the tube and the tubing from the solenoid. We turned it on and soon we had water dripping everywhere. We unloaded and defrosted the freezer which got all of the remaining ice that was stuck in there. We put everything back together. I read in some instructions in the manual that it might take 24 hours for the ice maker to reprogram itself and start producing ice. I was only about 12 hours and we had ice again and everything worked well. You really do not have to disconnect the water from the main line, the solinoid controls that part of operation and turns the water off until the ice trays are free and clear.

My ice maker is not getting water to the tube at the top inside of the freezer.
For model number ED22TEXHW02
PartSelect logo
Hi Donald, Thank you for your inquiry. I would suggest checking your fill tube to see if there is any ice blockage preventing water getting to your ice maker. The second thing that I would suggest you look into is your water inlet valve. Test both of the solenoids on that part with a multi-meter to see if they are working correctly. Good luck with your repair.

I have replaced the water inlet valve, and cleaned water lines and ice maker thoroughly but i am still not getting any water to the ice maker. The ice maker goes through the process but water gets to it. What could be the problem ?
For model number TT14DKXKQ03
PartSelect logo
Hello Bobbi, Thank you for the question. If the valve was not the issue and the lines are clear and it is still not filling, this normally means the ice maker is defective and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

Is there a way to test the ice maker ? Does the ice maker tell the inlet valve to send water?
For model number ESTATE TT14DKXKQ03
PartSelect logo
Hello Bobbi thank you for writing . Yes it does , there are test you can do for the water inlet Remove the water inlet valve from the refrigerator. Disconnect your fill line from your water valve Remove any wire harness or harnesses from your water valve. Push down on the tabs and remove the hoses. Once you remove the water valve, be sure to check the screen for any debris or blockage. Grab a multi-meter and set it to the lowest Ohms of resistance for your part. If you have any analog meter, touching the two metal probes together will zero out. To test your valve, touch one probe to each terminal. Depending on the part, your part can read between 200 and 500 Ohms. Note: If you have a fridge with both an ice maker and water dispenser, your Ohms of resistance may be higher. If your valve didn't reach those levels it probably needs to be replaced. Hope this helps. Contact us anytime.

The ice cubes taste funny. Is there anything in the ice maker that can cause that? I have an external water filter and it's been replaced and later bypassed and i still have the same problem. The ice cubes are normal size and everything else seems to function normally.
For model number ET22DKXAN02
PartSelect logo
Hi John, Thank you for your question. Ice cubes that taste funny can be caused by food containers left open or by food that has spilled inside the refrigerator. If the ice has been sitting in the refrigerator and it has not been used, it will absorb food odors. You may also have a bad water supply that is causing the ice cubes to taste funny. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Our ice maker quit working so we ordered part number w10130935. When we took out the maker we saw the fill tube inside the freezer was frozen solid. So we installed the new motor module thinking maybe the system has a way to melt that ice but found after 10 hours it did not thaw. We are wondering why would that fill tube freeze solid, what would cause that and what should we check to fix this problem? The water line? Can you give some pointers?
For model number ET20DMXAW00
PartSelect logo
Hello Mike, Thanks for your question. This type of issue typically arises from a leak or problem with the water inlet valve. You may want to examine the solenoid and test it with a multimeter for electrical continuity - replace it if it shows no continuity. I hope this helps.

Hello, Water is not dispensed, but the ice dispenses fine. What could be the problem? I see cold water coming out at the back of the refrigerator, but there is no water in the bottom front tubing behind the filter cover. Should i expect water to be flowing in the front tubing all the time or does it get water there only when the water switch is triggered?Thanks for your help. sahana
For model number 10657282791
PartSelect logo
Hi Sahana, Thank you for your question. If your refrigerator is not dispensing water, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check control bracket, the micro switch and the nozzle and tube. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!

The plastic line from the water pump outlet to the water fill tube for the ice maker became disconnected, possibly broken. I tried to re-insert the water line back into the ice maker water fill tube, but it isn't a secure fit and still leaks a lot. I was going to order the Ice Maker Water Fill Tube Kit Part Number: PS11739222 to try and fix this problem. But was wondering if it might be the plastic water line to the freezer ice maker?

We've had slow water from the dispenser a long time, now the water not going to ice maker. What parts should I be looking to replace.
For model number ed22pw
PartSelect logo
Hello Robert, Thank you for your inquiry. It sounds like an issue with the water inlet valve dispenser solenoid, and you will need to replace the entire water inlet valve. You can test it beforehand with a multimeter. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, we have videos available to assist you. Good luck with your repair.
