Either the inlet valve is stuck or the icemaker solenoid is shored.

Most likely the second one.

Ice maker leaks or runs over Causing big chunks of ice in the drawer

It's very possible that the water inlet valve isn't cutting off completely. I had that to happen on mine.

My icemaker is not dumping the ice when it's frozen.

Replacing the icemaker is neither expensive nor hard. Order a replacement on the Internet.

Sounds like a malfunction in the icemaker itself.

My sub-zero 532 makes ice that melts and refreezes

Hopefully, you've solved your problem by now, over a year later. If not, a similar problem I have with my 532 is due to the aluminum tube that the water flows through to fill the icemaker. Over time, this metal tube moves away from the icemaker toward the hose it is attached to due to the hose being warmer than the freezer compartment. This creates a gap between the metal tube and the icemaker causing water to spill into the ice bucket each time the icemaker refills. It makes you think the ice is melting and refreezing, but it is really just the water freezing when it spills into the ice. To correct the problem. you have to remove the icemaker, which is not that difficult, if you have a long stem phillips screwdriver. Then grab the metal water tube with some needle nose pliers, and pull it toward you to return it to its original position. If you pull too hard and it comes completely off the hose it is attached to, it is difficult to re-connect, but can be done, as I have had this happen several times, and have succeeded to re-connect it each time with some patience. The metal tube must fit snuggly into the icemaker when the icemaker is re-installed to prevent it from leaking water into the ice bucket each time it refills. My model 532 is now 23 years old and still working. Good luck!

Why is the ice maker not droping ice / Mod. ET1FTTXKQ00 / Type C21TFA01 Whirlpool 08-01

Take a 4 inch piece of 14 gauge insulated wire and strip 1 inch of insulation off each end. Bend the wire into a U shape.Remove the plastic cover from the front of the icemaker. Insert the bare ends into the terminals marked T and H on the face of the icemaker. The wheel should move and dispense the ice into the bucket. If it does not move and drop the ice replace the icemaker.

Kenmore fridge ice maker

This is the ice maker that is the problem. The ice maker is controlled by an electric solenoid valve in the rear of the frig. Over time they have a tendency to become corroded by the chemicals in the water and will cause undesired operation of the components. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Kenmore refer #70162990 ice maker leaking into storage tray

Please confirm you have given the complete model number.

If the icemaker has a bail wire to control how much ice is in the bin, there is a fill switch inside the front cover of the ice maker which allows you to increase or decrease the amount of fill.

You may also have a cracked or corroded ice mold. Check by filling the icemaker with water manually, and watching to see if it drips once the initial overfill stops dripping. This would also be indicated by the ice cubes being smaller than usual.
