Ice maker just stopped making ice. Door switch is fine. Sensing light on right side is on when door is open and left hand ice bin door paddle closed. When door switch closed the light goes out and no led or indicator light works. Any idea what the problem may be? my side by side ice maker just stopped working yesterday. The water works fine the fan works fine but there just isnt any ice being made at all. What could the problem be and is it worth fixing? The rest of the fridge works great so i would really like to be able to just get a part and fix it. thank you
HI!
In my refrigrator ice is not making . My frig is about one year old side by side. All of a sudden I noticed water stop coming in the ice dispenser. Please advise me what went wrong.
Thanks
Is there water in the ice trays?if not try pushing the test button normally underneath the unit. possibly it will initiate a reset and start working. sometimes a limit is not activated when it should be.

the most comon problem is the ice machine in the freezer actuates at low teperatures. actuation is when the unit goes into harvest the ice. if your freezer is not aciving low enough temperature the ice machine stops working ' check to ensure the condensor under the fridge is not pluged with dust .Also make shure there is adiquit air flow around the ice machine. hope this helped someone .

I have the same problem and I have found that the rubber tube coming into the icemaker top right side of the icemaker has an ice shaft in it , I'm assuming the ice prevented the water from getting into the tray as normal to make ice so I broke off the ice in the tube and picked it out of the little dish there and now I am waiting to see if that worked. If I don't come back to this forum then it worked and I'm a genious.
