Icemaker is not freezing ice, freezer not freezing food,

It sounds like the drian line may be pluged with frozen ice or debris like food particles and plastic paper etc. when the water is not able to drain it will usually freeze up and effect the cold level in both freezer and fridge. sometimes a bad evaprorator fan will not circulate air can can cause drian plug issues. do u hear the fan operating? if you have a soft long wire or tubing you can unplug the drain line by pushing tube or wire into the line and force food down to exit, see pics Im sending, are you having any issues with freezing in freezer?

The ice makers are usually disabled (turn off) by raising the arm!


Hope this helps?



Rotate up to off

either your ice maker is calling for too much water or the water valve isn't shutting off when the ice maker tells it too. The best thing to do is to change both the ice maker and the valve because if one is defective more than likely thee other will fail shortly

Sounds like your drain in the freezer is clogged. Try a flexible item like a guitar string to clear it.
BUT also make sure that the fan is working and blowing the humidity from the freezer to the fresh food section.

hello,

In a case like that usually the problem is going to be a cooling issue, is the fresh food and freezer section both cold? it obviously takes water and freezing tempatures to make ice.

2 things to check are

1) the condenser coil under the grill below door or on back depending on model is clogged with dust and needs to be cleaned

2) the fan in the freezer isn't running circulating air into ff section and directly onto icemaker

Good luck, i hope this helps

Replace icemaker.

The icemaker concists of a gearbox that has oil inside it.When the gearbox wears, it starts to leak at the shaft. Suggest you replace the icemaker.

apparently its the way the maytag defrosts. I have had this issue since I bought it. FIrst of all, you dont have to go through the whole defrosting process with water on the floor and removing your freezer contents. Simply take a butter knife and from the front corner, slide it under the edge of the ice and the whole sheet can be slid out intact right under the freezer door. I think it had alot to dowith having the humidity switch on, because when it isn't like in the summer when the AC is running, the amount of ice is not that bad.

Your drain line is clogged, that is located behind the white wall inside of the freezer. The water comes from defrost cycle, that happens every 8-12 hours. You need to defrost it and snake it.
