The most likely cause is the water solenoid behind the fridge. Take an ohm meter and test across the two terminals and it should NOT ohm out(beep). If it does not ohm out I would replace the P.C. Board kit, emitter & receiver icemaker control.

Why is the off light on on my scotsman ice machine

There could be a few reasons why the "off" light is on your Scotsman ice machine:
  1. Power Supply: The first thing to check is that the machine is properly plugged in and that there is the power to the outlet.
  2. Control Panel: The control panel may have been set to "off" mode manually. Make sure that the control panel is set to "on" mode.
  3. Control Switch: The control switch may be faulty, preventing the machine from turning on. If this is the case, the switch will need to be repaired or replaced.
  4. Thermostat: The thermostat controls the temperature inside the machine, if it's not functioning properly it may cause the machine to shut off. A faulty thermostat will need to be repaired or replaced.
  5. Power Outage: If there was a power outage and the machine lost power, it may have entered into a "safety" mode, this feature stops the machine from turning back on automatically after power is restored. Wait for a few minutes and then try to turn the machine back on.
It's best to consult the user manual or to contact a professional technician to diagnose the problem, as the issue could be caused by a number of things and it's important to troubleshoot it correctly.

HI, I have a Whirlpool Side-By-Side Refrigerator model ED25PQXW01 and the ice maker isn't working, how do I fix it??

Hi

Check to see that the refrigerator has power and is working. Reset or replace the fuse or circuit breaker in the house if needed, especially if a power outage has recently occurred. Make sure the water valve is connected to the refrigerator and is fully turned on. Ensure that the ice maker is turned on. Some Whirlpool refrigerator models have a switch located above the ice bin; some models have an arm that should be raised up to turn the ice maker on. The arm is also located above the ice bin. Clear away any ice cubes that may have gotten jammed in the ice maker, bin or dispenser that may be preventing ice cubes from moving as expected in the system. Use a plastic utensil to clear away any obstructions. Contact an authorized service center for assistance if the above steps do not fix the issue.

Please get back to us if you have further query else please accept the suggestion.

Thank you for contacting fixya.com

Freezer is very cold but fridge area is warm. what is up.

Sometimes the defrost drain pan stops up. Instead of the water goin outside is pools up between the compartments. This forms a slab of ice and blocks the air flow from freezer to fresh food. Of course the other thing that comes to mind is the freezer fan could have quit or stopped due to an ice buildup.

We have a Whirlpool refrigerator model ET1MTKXKQ07. We have recently had a problem with water pooling inside the refrigerator. We know that the drain line must be stopped up, because there isn't anything...

There is no drain line as the only water that goes into the refrigerator is the water that goes into the ice maker. The out side water only goes into a glass or spilled on the floor.

I suspect that your inlet water solonoid is not reseating properly after the ice maker signals it to close. It opens by an electro magnet and closes by spring pressure. You may have to have it replaced. The ice maker rotats and hits a micro switch that sends power to the solonoid that snaps it open and is held as long as the switch is depressed. when the cam on the rotating vane passes the micro switch lever, the switch goes back to normal taking the power off of the solonoid, and spring pressure snaps it back in the closed position. This cam is timed to just fill up your ice tray.

Whirlpool IceMagic Plus not working.

Pour about 2/3 cup of water into the ice maker . If it dumps the ice but doesn't refill , replace the ice maker . If it doesn't dump , and the cubes stay in the ice maker , replace the ice maker .

The switch on the icemaker for normal , runs the icemaker normaly . In the ice plus , a small fan comes on , blowing the inside air , over the ice maker mold , to help it freeze faster .

Hello garydeanr,
Welcome to fixya.

You said,, There is a constant grinding sound in the Ice Magic Plus compartment in the freezer compartment. The ice maker is making ice.

What is your exact model number and How Old is your fridge?

Waiting your response!


I believe that,
From here this sounds like one of many normal sounds. is a normal sound.

You can go to this site and scroll to page 9 where it will tell you all the normal sounds your fridge can make.

Freezer cold but not fridge

too much ice bulid up will stop enough cold air being blown into the fridge.Try turning it off letting all ice melt then turn it back on again and set thermostat at a lower temp.There may be ice you can't see.
