Hi we have just bought a new daewoo drs30dsm and had it plumbed in. How do we get it to produce ice?

SOURCE: Ice maker not getting water

check your water valve you have 2 located at lower back of refrig.

SOURCE: water dispenser

the water freezes.. make the temperature lower so the water can come down.

SOURCE: Samsung RS21DCNS: Ice maker fills up but water dispenser does not dispense water

the fridge is making a noise , sounds like a fan catching and the water will not flow
the firdge is a Samsung RS21DCNS 19.6CF

SOURCE: Icemaker does not make ice. Appears no water is getting to maker.

If your ice maker has stopped producing ice completely, check these, in this order:

• It may be turned off. Look for the wire along the right side of the ice maker that looks a bit like a coat hanger. If the wire is in the raised position, the ice maker is turned off. If so, try one of these:
  
  
  • If your ice maker has a small red plastic lever, lower it to lower the wire.
    
    
  • If there's no plastic lever, simply lower the wire.
    
    
  In either case, the ice maker should begin producing ice again. Also make sure that the temperature is 8 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. If the freezer is too warm, the ice maker won't cycle properly.
  
  
• The ice maker fill tube may be blocked with ice. If so, melt the blockage using a hair dryer-but be careful to not melt any plastic parts! Also replace the water shut-off valve or water-inlet valve, or both, if necessary.
  
  
• The ice maker head assembly may have broken parts. Look to see if the gears are broken. Check to see if the small plastic arms that rest against the ice rake are broken. If the ice maker head assembly is modular and you've found broken parts, you can just replace it.

Hi. the first action is to check the water filter(If Equipped). Once a water filter reaches its filtering limit, it will stop the free flow of water immediately. This will require you to replace the filter asap, if needed. Once the filter is replaced, the water will flow freely once more. I would also advise to check the integrity of the lines. If the lines are frozen, this will cause a no-flow situation , as well. check to make sure that the lines are not frozen.

Ok, if the lines and filter are not the issue, kindly,proceed to the inspecting of the water inlet valve assembly.

The water inlet valve is located behind your refrigerator. Find the water supply line coming into the valve and turn it off at the source (typically under the sink, or behind the unit). Disconnect the supply line. Remove the screws that secure the inlet valve in place.

The water inlet valve is connected by two wires. Label the wire placement on the water inlet valve before disconnecting the wires. The wires are connected to the terminals with slip on connectors

Firmly pull the connectors off of the terminals (do not pull on the wire). You may need to use a pair of needle-nose pliers to remove the connectors. Inspect the connectors and the terminals for corrosion. If the connectors are corroded they should be replaced.

Inspect the filter screen where the supply line connects. Remove any debris or deposits that may have built up using a toothbrush, or warm running water. If you cannot clear the clog, it will be necessary to replace the valve (the filter is not removable on most inlet valves).


Test the water inlet valve for continuity using a multimeter. Set the multimeter to the ohms setting X100 (if available, otherwise use the nearest ohm setting). Place a probe on each terminal. The multimeter should display a reading of 200 to 500 ohms. Close inspection of the inlet valve and especially the coil may reveal the exact ohm resistance rating to test for. If the water inlet valve does not pass this test, it should be replaced.../
