Wont make ice - Kenmore 57029 Side by Side Refrigerator

ice maker will need to be replaced

There could be so many things wrong with it to cause this problem from just a dirty machine, bad harvest assist plunger, low freon charge, bad hot gas valve. You really need to call a service company.

if you have selected cubed on the door and still wont dispense cubed ice likely cause is the cubed ice solinoid( located behind the panel in where the auger motor is located) thats the motor that turns the curly thing in the ice cube resivoir.....!!!

need to replace the ice maker

you need to replace the ice maker .

Is the freezer temp at least -15 degrees? Is there water to the water valve in the back? Is there a cube stuck in the harvest arm of the ice maker? Is there water in the tray of the ice maker?

the purge valve empties the tray... the bin just drains with gravity... If you bin isn't draining... it must be clogged somewhere.

THis happened to mine last year. The part you need is #628366 Motor - Module. Sorry That is what i had to do, but i had to pay a repair man to find the problem. Hope this helps.

hi there,

sounds like you have ice in the ice bucket. it's most likely that the ice paddle is jammed or broken. check around the ice door and paddle for anything visibly broken as well. you may have to replace the ice paddle.
