How to Fix a Frigidaire Gallery Refrigerator that Wont Make Ice

If your Ice Maker is not working, this video will show how to Diagnose and Repair it. The diagnosis procedure should work for virtually any fridge with an ice maker, but if you're wondering, this is a Frigidaire Gallery model number GLRS2642A-B6.

[@danieltravelstead]

For any others who might run into this problem, I spent literally hours trying to diagnose what was wrong after running through everything in the video and nothing seemed to work. I ran into something online that said to pop off the front of the actual ice maker (just use a little bit of force but it should pop off if it's like the one in the video) and if the gears are not moving, turn the large gear 1/4 of the way around clockwise to begin a manual reset process. Within a few minutes water came from the tube into the ice maker but it took me resetting multiple times to get ice and it still didn't work continuously without constantly resetting which led me to believe something may be wrong with the motor. After very close inspection the next day, I realized that probably a mm of two of the wedge tips on the gear had been corroded/chipped off and that was the reason the gear wasn't turning, water wasn't flowing into the freezer and ice wasn't being made. A quick gear order of Amazon for $15 ( www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083HMNWBP/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza ) fixed my issue and ice is flowing back in. Just glad I didn't have to replace the whole ice maker! Thanks @Farm Dad for the walkthrough as I would have never been able to deduce what was happening without this video and learned a whole ton about my refrigerator/ice maker in the process! lol Also my model number was FFSS2614QS6A.

[@tammystewart797]

Wow thx ur awesome 👌

[@jerryanderson6466]

Thank you!!! I just replaced the assembly and still nothing.. gonna look at the resetting it... thanks again for sharing

[@jerryanderson6466]

My gears won't move manually. Look great but I can't turn it. ?????

[@bramsburg07]

Dude thank you! I decided to try this after replacing the filter before I pulled the fridge out (easiest to hardest method order lol) and I had a broken tooth on the gear and the loose tooth got jammed and stopped it from spinning. We are up and running now!

[@tgall3]

Thank you so much! After the repairman looked at it for 30 seconds and said the whole ice maker needs replaced and quoted $350 I was shocked. Found this video, and this comment and sure enough, the gear had been worn down. And now it's working. Thank you!

After watching your video I was able to assess what my problems was. I used a pair of bent needle nosed pliers and removed the plastic water piece from the back of the refrigerator and it was frozen solid. I noticed that to remove this piece I had to turn is a quarter turn to unlock and then pull. After I thawed out the ice I simple replaced and quarter turned it into the lock position and then reattached the water source. Thank you for posting your instructional video, it was very helpful.

[@bluusoda]

Hey guys - just wanted to share a fix you might want to try. I had a repair guy finally look at my ice maker (2018 fridge). Turns out there was a design problem (he spoke to someone from Electrolux). Air was seeping into the hole where the waterline goes. If you live someplace that has high humidity it could cause the line to freeze. The fix was to insulate the line in the fridge and also seal the hole. Used to freeze up after 2 days and stop making ice. Has been running great for 2.5 weeks now and makes ice much much faster. Good luck!

[@lestine38able]

Hey not sure how to insulate. Can you plz walk me through

[@bluusoda]

@@lestine38able hi, the final fix was to replace the hose that goes into the fridge. The insulation part was basically just making sure there’s no gap where the hose enters the fridge.

[@sandym4001]

Great video...... this was perfect and I found the ice in the plastic piece that you showed. I do want to caution those that will doing this, the metal plate behind the fridge that surrounds the plastic piece is extremely sharp. I made the mistake of running my finger across it as I was pulling the piece and ended up with a pretty deep cut in my thumb. I suggest using pliers to pull the piece out if it doesn't budge for the inside, or taping around the metal edge that surrounds the piece. Good luck. Great video!

Ouch! Good advice.

Thank you so much for the video on how to fix ice maker. I have a ke more fridge which seems from your video it has similar functionality. I did try the pipe method by following your steps, unfortunately still ice is not being made, so I believe possible the bottom valve might need to be replaced. Requesting can you please upload video of that as well on how to take off valve etc now in case if that doesn’t work also what else is the reason that ice maker not working?

[@SeanQuinn4]

Found your video today, our ice maker hasn't worked great since I had installed our RO and switched over, I had assumed it was the water pressure. Turns out the inlet had frozen, so I thawed that, only to not get ice. Frustrated, I figured I would try manually adding water to the tray. It seemed to not flow where it should (I used a bowl rather clumsily), but about 30 minutes later the machine dumped a load of ice! And then another, and another 😁 I think the bowl of water thawed something out that was controlling the water but frozen in the closed position. I'm guessing a water position sensor of some sort, but I haven't taken off the front cover to look for myself. Cheers! Our ice is also no longer semi-hollow / misshapen 🤘

When pulling out the water feed "spicket" or tube, first turn it 1/4 turn counter clockwise, as there's a tiny plastic locking tab holding it in. This was iced up, on my fridge. Also, there's a tiny funnel on the ice maker itself, that this spicket dumps water into and it was frozen up too so, I actually had to remove the entire ice maker (super easy) and let it thaw out. You're processed worked great. Thanks!!

@@FarmDad I do have one question I have not found an answer for: Why does the water enter the back of the unit behind the ice maker rather than the water filter? Doesn't the water for the ice maker go through the filter first?

@@michaelweaver4718 yes it does go through filter first. The water line from your house should go to the filter. Then from filter it should go to the solenoid valve which will send filtered water to the ice maker as needed.

Thank you. Great basic quick check before moving on to replacement parts. It would be great to have seen the valve replacement or learn if some valves can be purchased at a local hardware store. I did learn about checking the top stem for blockage from this video but was not lucky and appears to be the valve. Thank you.

[@FarmDad]

I wish I would have put in the video that a lot of times you can confirm whether your valve is bad by switching the connections on its solenoids. If you reverse the connections and no longer have water at the dispenser but start getting ice, the solenoid for the ice maker is bad. It's usually easiest to replace the whole valve. I usually buy it online as most hardware stores won't have it.

[@dangariglio5588]

I was not getting ice from my icemaker but I had water on the door so I replaced the solenoid valve and still no ice. I then replaced the icemaker and that didn't help.

However, the water doesn’t look like it’s fully through the line. I can see increments where it stops and goes. How long should I leave it in the bucket for before I can determine this is the issue? So far it’s been in the bucket for an hour and no water is in the bucket. At one point should it be flowing out or should there just be a little water in the bucket? Thanks so much!!

Your tutorial is great and it’s very detailed. I have water coming out my water dispenser no problem from the front of the refrigerator. I change the filter just to be on the safe side. I also disconnected the waterline that connects to the freezer for the icemaker and I put it in a bowl waiting to see if water comes out of there however my icemaker makes ice and then where the ice is made and formed it gets stuck and I have to push it down like it freezes right up in there where you had me to put my finger at that’s where it’s freezing it once I push it down then it’ll make another tray of ice. what do you suggest next?

[@FarmDad]

Sorry, I'm a little confused. So in the ice tray in the ice maker, the fridge will fill it with water and then it'll freeze, but it won't transfer it to the storage tray? If that describes your problem it sounds like an issue with the ice maker.

[@lestine38able]

@@FarmDad yes that is correct. Sorry

@@FarmDad sometimes it will transfer and then the on and off lever will not go all the way down to produce the next set of ice and I think it freezes then

That's frustrating. It could be that the freezer temp is set a little too cold. If not that you may try insulating that little tube. It won't look pretty but should help 👍

[@richardk7379]

Great video. What if the filter is brand new, there is plenty of water getting to the refrigerator but there is no water coming out of the water dispenser? Does that pretty much a guarantee that the valve assembly needs replaced?

[@FarmDad]

Sounds like bad valve. So you have no water or ice? If you have one or the other you can test valve by reversing the wires on the solenoids to see if one solenoid or the other is bad.
