Will a water valve for a frigidare refrigerator work on a kenmore refrigerator? the one shown for my kenmore won't work, but the one for the frigidare looks like it will work.

do you have water ---is lock on --is water valve working properly

Maybe freezer temp is not sufficient for ice maker to work. Maybe ice maker needs replacing. Maybe water valve is not letting water get to ice maker. Probably need competent service person to take a look

replace the water valve. the valve is a multi valve and does not come seperate.

There are many things that can go wrong with a Kenmore refrigerator ice maker. Your ice maker may be leaking. It may not make any ice at all, or the ice that comes out smells or has an odd appearance. The problem may have an easy solution, or it may require a technician's expertise. The troubleshooting tips in this article will minimally make you aware of what is likely the source of the problem. You may be able to fix the problem yourself and save a bundle.

When it Won't Make Ice
1 Get a thermometer and see how cold it is in there. If your freezer is fewer than 17 degrees F, it won't make ice. The freezer temperature setting may be too high or the thermometer is broken and not calibrated correctly. If adjusting the temperature fails to work, call a Kenmore technician.
2 Determine if your water fill spout in the freezer is plugged with ice. If so, no new ice can be made. Try clearing it out or melting the ice by running a hair dryer on it for a few minutes.
3 Turn your refrigerator around to look at the back side to see if water is getting to the water inlet valve behind the fridge. If the water is not properly connected, there's no water to make ice.
4 Use an ohm meter to test for coil continuity. If the ohm meter shows there is no continuity, then you will need to replace the water inlet valve.

Have a good day : )

The question is too short so i guess that your refrigerator maybe won't make ice & reason for not cooling so i gave this tip.

Have a good day. : )

Since both functions are not performing, check your water supply, a clogged filter, a bent supply line, a supply line that is turned off. Internally it could be that every thing is frozen up or your water valve is bad. Joe

I know the minimum operating temp for many refrigerators is around 33 F (about a degree above freezing or so). This is due to the refrigerant gas within the compressor and the fact that it is not stable at low temps. Typically, a refrigerator's minimum ambient temp should be 50 degrees F (10 degrees C).

I don't know if there is a whole lot you can do. The refrigerator really wasn't built to work in such cold weather. You may either have to relocate it, put a heat source near it or look into a special freezer that is *supposedly* able to operate in much colder ambient temps.

your freezer had a heater and a bi metal behind its pannel. if they won't work properly than you would face problem like this.......contact your service authority. it cannot be solved by your own

Try replacing the washer in the solenoid valve. Sometimes it leaks by enough to freeze in the dispensing tube.
