Question about GE Profile PSW26P Stainless Steel Side by Side Refrigerator

Ice Falls Into Freezer Compartment

We just hooked up and started using our GE fridge, and noticed that both crushed ice and block ice fall between the maker and the chute into the freezer compartment. Is there some kind of sleeve we are missing that directs ice ONLY to the chute? There does not appear to be anything directing ice to the hole and some of the ice bounces in the wrong direction. Thanks in advance.

Will not release ice and makes crushed ice, even when on cubed.

I believe in your case the ice maker part number WR30X10093 being electronic with the control board in the front is the problem. I think the control board behind the front cover of the ice maker may have corrosion and causing the ice maker to malfunction. You can try disconnecting the set of wires to the coil on the water control valve and see if the water stops or turn off the ice maker first and try disconnecting the coil wires later. It has to be the control board or the water control valve part number WR57X10032

GE PSS25MGMA Crushed ice only, nothing else will select on panel.

Yes , replace the main board . Part number WR55X10656 . There is only partial communication between the main board and the dispensor board . This main board , is behind the 8 " X 10 " panel , on the back of the refrig . Do not replace the dispensor board . I have never come across a bad dispensor board yet . Always a first time though .

GE Monogram refrigerator icemaker problem

This is normal if you have previously used the crushed ice mode. The refrigerator will continue to dispense crushed ice for some time until the reserves are depleted. If this continues for a longer period then shut down the refrigerator and remove the dispenser compartment, clean any remaining ice and reinstall it. Start the power supply and wait 5 hours for the ice to form. Use the cube mode and you will surely obtain ice cubes.

The ice maker drops the ice into the chute but when it should come out of the chute the flap keeps the ice backed up.

It's probably just frozen up with crushed ice. We use a lot of crushed ice and we clean ours out every night before bed time. That way we can start a whole new day of "Crushed Ice Pleasure" without the backing up. If this is not your case, your chute may need to be replaced. We have parts! Hope this helps you! Ella

Ice maker only makes crushed ice, no cubes

The button which selects cubes versus crushed controls a solenoid which engages/disengages the crusher. If the mechanisms which crush and push the ice from the chute are all clean, free of ice, etc., then the solenoid is not working. It either has loose/dirty connections or the solelnoid is bad.

Ice Maker Issues-only crushed ice works, cubed comes out crushed

There is a solinoid in the freezer section by the motor that turns the ice auger. Test it by selecting cubes and with the ice bucket out, open the door, hold the door switch so the lights turn out and push the dispenser button. It should make a loud snap and travel upward. If not then I would say you have a bad solinoid. If it does, then I would look at the bucket. the metal rod that runs along the side of the bucket opens a flap in the bucket that is supposed to let the full cubes drop. look for anything that might cause it to be hanging up.
