I have been troubleshooting my ice maker for a month now with no luck. original my ice maker stopped producing ice because the ice box fan failed and the ice box in the fridge wasn’t getting cooled enough. Replaced that part and now I can’t get water to the ice box. Working items. Ice machine will make ice cubes with water added manually water line from solenoid to ice maker clear. (Checked with air compressor light pressure) Water dispenser works with adequate pressure Ice maker solenoid passed ohms check and also (ran jumper wires from water solenoid to ice maker solenoid. Request water from the door and water went to the ice machine.) It seems like the logic or the ice machine is not requesting water because it’s not opening the solenoid. Any ideas? Thank you
The service manual helped out. Double checked the thermistor against the service manual resistance chart. It passed. After a couple of service mode tests from the manual all passed I open up the ice maker it self and 8 plastic teeth fell out of the motor area. Ran a cycle after that and noticed the harvest cycle was running to long and the melting plate was melting the ice before the harvest cycle could get the ice out. I’m going to replace the ice maker component and see if that fixes the issue. Parts on order
Warranty replaced my ice maker and water valve It made 2 buckets of ice and stopped again. Same as it did new. Will dispense water and dump ice if i fill tray manually. $3000 GE / Samsung
