Broken freezer door wire for Icemaker fix

Kenmore Coldspot fridge model 106.51769511
Freezer door icemaker broken wire fix
First I replaced the Ice maker tray, then it still didn't work. Further inspection I found three broken wires going into the freezer door at the bottom. This video shows how I rigged the broken wires together so my Icemaker can Make me MORE ICE!.
This Broken Freezer Door Wire issue spans across other brands and models I hope this video can help you troubleshoot your icemaker problems.

My ice maker stopped working last month, can’t believe this is the reason. I only have 1 broken wire but this is freakin ridiculous! I saw somewhere there’s a class action lawsuit being filed since you really can’t buy parts and have to buy a new door unless you do something like this.

Can you post a link where you saw reference to the class action lawsuit being filed? This affects not only this Kenmore model by my Whirlpool model WRS588 & many more. Thanks.

Hi, I had the same problem and fixed the wires myself. It did the noise and the movement but I haven't heard it fill the ice cube tray with water. How long does it take?

[@ronnierigsit3200]

I think it's on a 12-hour cycle or so. I had ice dump the next afternoon and ever since I fixed it my icebox is back to being full all the time. I hope yours works soon, might need to check if any more wires are damaged. But I would give it a full 24-hour and you should have something happening.
