4 years later, I am so happy I found this video. I have never worked on this type of system and ran into one last week. Unfortunately, I couldn't fix it because I couldn't figure out how to take it apart. You are a life saver. I ordered the new ice maker and am going back next week with knowledge of how to replace it. thank you.

Thank you! I followed your video and replaced my ice maker. You made me realize it's not too difficult to do. I swapped it out in 40 minutes. I'm sure I saved hundreds of dollars because the part was only $90! I had to do a hard reset the next morning, unplugging the fridge for 10 minutes because it wasn't dispensing ice after replacing it. This worked to reset the control board, I now have ice in the bin!

Bearded!!! This is a great video! We had repairman come and replaced ice maker. Since he left it seems to have frozen or something. Water periodically won’t come out door dispenser and ice has stopped. Think frozen. So of course another 3 weeks until they come out again. I got frustrated and followed your video. Easily took it apart and checked connections etc. Used hair dryer to unfreeze lines and melted the dispenser door flap thing where ice falls out of mold. No big deal. But was able to do it easily and now way to see if I got it to work again…but I did notice blue tape that appears to hold a heating coil that’s wrapped around water supply line into ice maker wasn’t all that tightly pressed against tube opening. So maybe that was issue? Not sure. We’ll wait and see! But, thank you for this simple “how-to” video! Keep up great videos!!!

THANKS SO MUCH! I learned more information about my Whirlpool fridge from your 'precise and easy to follow' video than I have from the last dozen I tried to watch for help. YOU ROCK! Because of the information you provided, I was able to determine by the codes that the ice maker itself was error free, but that one side of the water inlet valve had failed. Therefore, I was getting water to the water dispenser, but no water going to the ice maker to make ice with. So much information, in so little time, thanks to you, sir! Finding the tech sheet was a super tip to start with. Appreciate you!!

Excellent video. Thanks a bunch! My ice maker is erratic. The ice bin was a bit low in the morning when it usually fills up at night from its typical half full level. So, after watching your video and finding my tech sheet per your directions I did a test and got a zero code. Three seconds later the ice maker dropped a load of ice just. Sometimes the bin gets much lower than this time. So now I know where to start right away next time for diagnosis. Thanks much for posting your video ! I'm saving the bookmark in case I have to replace the ice maker or something in it. BTW for others. If you don't want to be replacing the auger motor or shaft in the ice bin just reach into it once a day with a clean hand and stir/break up the ice so it is not clumped up.

This video is really great, and I appreciate it. I've watched it several times until it sank in. Unfortunately, I'm still confused as to what my problem might be, and I might have to call a service tech. I have a family and money is tight, and I really don't want to have to do that. Low or no ice production. New water filter from known good reseller. Service Test 15 - Ice Level sensor passes. Service Test 56 - Ice Maker Error Codes: E0 - no errors. Service Test 59 - Ice Maker Motor, passes, both directions. Service Test 57 - Ice Maker Harvest - Will dispense any ice that is in ice maker. Service Test 45, Ice Maker Water Fill Test: Passes. If anyone has any advice, I'd certainly appreciate it.

This is a great video! I changed out my ice-maker (found on eBay) today by following it. A couple of minor points. You have to push in on the flange next to the water line with a screwdriver to get the tube out. Otherwise, it will not pull out. Also, once you get the plastic cover off the ice maker box, be careful of the styrofoam sheet that is exposed. It is very thin and fragile. The ice maker wire plug connection is tiny and you can accidentally crack the styrofoam trying to unplug it. My fridge had two light plugs under the large ceiling panel instead of one, but not a big deal. Altogether a great guide!

I have the same fridge. We weren't getting any error codes. Oddly enough, Test 59 would find position one direction and not the other ... but we had no error codes. After running Test 19 (Heater) for about 5 minutes, I ran the test that ejects the ice (I think it was 57) prior to running the water fill test for the ice maker. When I did, I heard some small bits of ice fall out. After doing this, I had ice in the door the next morning. Hoping it was just some ice gunking up the works that got broke out from heating it up and cycling it. If you have no ice in the door but have no codes, it's worth a shot. A new ice maker is like $130 (on amazon, from the link provided, as of yesterday). Don't throw money at the problem if you can warm it up for 5 minutes and let it ride another day.

Yes, this is a great video. Can you tell me how to only change out the thermistor? I got an E5 error code when running test 56. Or would be just as easy to change out the entire ice maker?

Great video and Thanks for posting it. Can you tell me how to specifically test the ice maker fascia heater ? When I remove it and unplug the heater harness I'm testing the wire on the inside of the fascia and circles all the way around the opening for continuity but it fails the continuity test. Is they're another way to verify if this heater is working

This video was extremely helpful. I was able to switch out my old ice maker and install new one. It started making ice....however I have run into a new problem. My water line is freezing up and it didn't before. I have cleaned coils, defrosted the refrigerator. It started working again after that but froze up again. Any suggestions?

great video... I've had some friends who used to do fridge maintenance and they said 90% of the time the ice maker is just frozen... and all it needs is to use a hairdryer on the whole thing... dry it o ff and put back in. Now... I figure I'll still put in a replacement cause I don't want to do the job twice........but for those that are quick with their tools...... you might try this.

I have this same fridge. I replaced the control board bc I was having defrosting issues. I read somewhere that all the roof lights would also be fixed however they are still all out. Any ideas what to check or replace? Very much appreciated!

Thanks for the video. The replacement went as you showed in the video. Now my ice maker is overflowing when it adds water for a new batch of ice. How do I decrease the amount of water going into the ice maker?

Thank you for this! Not sure the motor is the only issue since I can see ice at the back of the unit where it meets the back wall of the refrigerator.

Hi. I have this refrigerator and I have a problem with the icemaker water. I replaced both water inlet valves. The problem is that when I use the water dispenser water is sent to the icemaker. I have done everything to correct this to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That fascia door/heater cover you took off. What’s that part called? Part #? I kinda overheated with hair dryer and melted door cover so won’t fit now. Not sure if that makes a difference or just cosmetic…?

Thankfully, I checked another person’s video after watching yours and almost destroying my water line. Mentioning that you need to depress the yellow tab on the water line would be helpful to others so that they don’t cause extra problems.
