Thank you for your post, friend!

I see that the icemaker on your Frigidaire refrigerator works intermittently. I would like to ask you some troubleshooting questions. When was the last time you replaced your water filter? Have you checked to verify the water valve is completely opened? I would also check to make sure there are no kinks in your water line. If you continue to experience these issues with your icemaker please comment back. I would like provide any additional information if possible. -Matt

Make sure your manual doesn't say something about inline filters, or a float that might be sticking in off position. Depending on how ice is made sometimes they have a float to where water rises so hight then gets shut off to freeze and form the ice.

Pull out the whole ice machine part. At the back of the fridge you will see a small rectangle hole with a white plastic part inside the whole. Loosen the pastic part by applying a little pressure with your fingers it should move, it's probably just sticking.

SOURCE: my ice maker quit making ice.

Hi, If your ice maker has stopped making ice then you need to check these things.
The lever that controls the ice maker has been pushed up which turns it off. If you have a red lever, pull it down to the wire and if you just have a wire then just pull down the wire to start your ice maker up.
Make sure the freezer temperature is below 10 degrees F If the freezer is too warm ice production will be poor because the ice maker will not cycle properly.
The ice maker fill tube may have ice formed in it, blocking it. Use a hair dryer to melt the ice. Watch out for the plastic parts, so that you do not melt the plastic. Also check the water inlet valve and the shut off valve, to make sure it is not plugged with debris. The openings in those valves are very small.
Check the gears in the ice makers to see if they are broken or stripped. Also look to see if the ice rake is broken. All parts in the ice maker are replaceable individually, If you find broken parts replace them.

Take care

Ice maker quit making ice how to find problem

Good Morning Friend,

I understand that your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# FRS26R4A, stopped making ice. Here are a couple of suggestions you may try, to get your ice maker to produce ice.

    1)Make sure that the wire signal arm, inside the bucket area, is in the down or ON position.
    2)Make sure your household water line valve is open and on.
    3)Make sure your freezer is cold enough.
    4)Make sure the water dispenser is dispensing water. If not, the ice & water filter cartridge is clogged or restricted by foreign material, and must be replaced.
    I hope this is helpful.

    -Best Regards-

Ice maker quit working

Good Afternoon Kevin,

I understand that your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# FRS26R4A, is not making ice. There are a couple of things you can check. First, check the wire signal arm to make sure it is in the "down" or ON position. The ice maker turns off automatically when the ice container becomes full. To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it clicks, and locks in the "up" or OFF position. Second, check to see if the water dispenser is dispensing. You might need to change your water filter. It's recommended you change it every 6-8 months. The other thing if your appliance is not dispensing water is there might be a kink in the hose or maybe the water supply has been cut off. Hope this has been helpful.

-Best Regards-

Frigidaire side by side with ice maker .. ice maker jams and quits making ice

Hi,
Hollow ice cubes are a result of lack of water to ice maker. This can be caused by lack of water pressure (clogged filter, bad water valve, obstructed fill tube, etc..) you will need to find the cause to correct this hollow ice cube issue. The ice maker should take on 5.5 oz of water when it cycles (2/3 cup). Mot of the time its a water supply issue and the line could be kinked behind the unit as it was rolled back into place.

Good Luck

Frigidaire ice maker not working

Hi,
The first step you need to do is to turn the water off to the refrigerator so it quits making until you get it fixed.
If your fridge has the control boards in each side of the freezer cabinet that controls the icemaker, then you have a failed board. If you have a standard icemaker with the metal shutoff arm then you have a failed motor module in the icemaker. You can remove the icemaker and unplug the wiring connector from it so you can leave the water on to the dispenser.

Thank you for contacting Fixya.com

Frigidaire side-by-side ice maker hose froze up

I've seen three solutions to this but havn't tried them yet. One was to gently turn the tube counter clock wise to separate it from the refrigerator and then clear the ice form the end of it another was to use a hair dryer to thaw it out and the third was to wrap warm washrags around it to thaw it out.

My ice maker won't make ice.I have a Frigidaire FRS26H5ASB5. Can you tell me what I can do?

I had the same problem with my ice maker.
I took it apart and cleaned the three switches inside the icemaker
The switches are not a high enough amp rating so they burn the contacts. Keep in mine cleaning is temp fix.
I did mine about 4 months ago and still working.
I have new switches now that I will be installing as soon as it quits again. About $9.00 for new switches and about $130.00 for a new Icemaker!

I hope this helps.
