Frigidaire phsc239dsb0 ice maker
My ice maker stopped working recently. The ice is built up and won't release into the bin. We melted the ice off and it worked for a day, but built up again. I contacted Frigidaire and they suggested I replace the heating element. I called a local dealer and they said I should replace the entire ice maker bc I could cause more problems replacing one piece. I'm nervous this won't fix the problem, although the valve seems ok since it's a single valve and the water side works fine. Also, the arm is down.
What do you recommend? I'd hate to spend $100 and still have issues, and there's no return on electrical parts at this dealer.
I read another post re: a similar issue and a thermal cutout was mentioned, but they also said to replace the entire ice maker. I guess I'd like reassurance that I'm doing the right thing.

-Thanks for your advice.
I replaced the filter for the first time today and when I ran the water for a few minutes it poured out of the tube at the back of the freezer, down into the bin, and to the bottom of the freezer. We took the filter out and put it back in, but it still leaks. What could be wrong? It doesn't leak in the fridge and everything seems to be connected properly- I didn't change anything and the water worked fine before. I am going to replace the ice maker, but now have this problem to deal with. Help!

- But if I didn't do anything else, why would replacing the filter cause this problem?Same Problem

Yes it is best to replace the whole icemaker. Heaters don't go bad very often but thermostats do. You need to know what you are doing to test these parts. I would recommend replacing the whole ice maker and I have worked on thousands of them.

- The problem is going to be either in the power board behind the dispenser cover or the water valve itself. I would say the water valve would be more likely. If you are getting water out of the door and out of the fill tube to the ice maker at the same time I would say the problem is in the valve.Yes
No
