It's the Sears Parts site for that model refridgerator.

They list the fan for $8.10 and you can replace the whole ice maker for about $120

Looks like you take the shelves out and then the bulb, then the top panel in the back of the freezer to acces the fan

Good luck

Blake are you talking about the dispenser control board? The ice maker tells the water control valve to come on for the preset amout of time to refill the ice trays most times about 7.5 seconds. and filling ice maker with tap water will test icemaker. If water freezes and the ice dumps the signal is sent to the water control valve Click here=> WR57X10050 here is a service manual=> PROFILE ARTICA SERVICE MANUAL CLICK HERE Have questions you may contact me here on Fixya or my Forum=> Appliance 911 My contact information is located above the Fixya Ad on my blog here=> Sea Breeze Appliance Parts and Technical Services, Thanks, Sea Breeze

It's possible that your ice maker heater has gone out and therefore can't allow the ice to break away from the unit to drop it. If this is the case, you'll need a new ice maker. We hope this helps and we hope to be able to assist you again soon if you have any more appliance issues.

The ice maker switch had come unattached due to excess ice buildup, and frozen to the ice pack. The ice in the ice maker had also frozen into a solid block due to not being able to rotate. After removing the drawer trays and protecting the frozen food, turning off the refridgerator, I used a hair drier to melt and remove the ice from the ice maker, gave it time to dry out, -- No gears wer stripped,- the ice maker now works normally.

check for water then check water valve where hose connects. the see if the is water in ice maker if so then wait for ice, if no water it could be the valve

make sure you push the ice lever back down

did you check the resevoir in the fresh food section it may be frozen. There is also a possibility that this refrigerator has a dual valve one sends water to the ice maker the other to the water dispenser it may be bad. I tried to look it up but the model number listed would not come up I think you are missing numbers best to get a complete model number from the refrigerator not the manual.

Hi,

I see your installation date has come and gone, but if you still need to hook up the water you can find an "ice-maker kit" from almost any home improvement store (such as Lowes, Ace, Home Depot etc....) This includes 1/4" bendable copper tubing and a valve that will tap a near by cold water supply pipe. If you find a kit with plastic tubing, I would steer clear and find the bendable copper. Plastic tubing kits are notorious for springing leaks. Buy some extra compression nuts and washers for the tubing while you are there, it may take more than one try to get a waterproof seal if this is your first time hooking up water and ice dispenser.

When hooking up the tubing to the back of the refridgerator, leave a couple coils of slack to allow the refridgerator to be pushed in or pulled out without straining the connection. There is usually a small clamp on the refridgerator back to hold the tubing steady, make sure you use this. This will help ensure a leak free connection. After you have the tube hooked up, push the refridgerator all the way back, then pull it back out and check for leaks. Sometimes the tube will start dripping a bit after the refridgerator is moved, so this step helps ensure you won't have leak problems.

I recently had trouble with both my water dispenser and my ice maker. I determined that my filter was clogged, so I replaced it. That fixed the water dispenser but the ice maker still wasn't working. I investigated further and found that the water inlet tube was frozen solid. Aparently, when the filter was clogged the water came in so slowly that it froze before it got to the icetray. I tried pouring hot water over the inlet tube to melt it and it mostly worked, but there was still some ice in the tube further back where I couldn't reach. Finally I defrosted the freezer so all the ice could melt and turned it back on and now it works great! Hope this might help.
