Watched about six videos and my ice maker decides to cycle while I’m watching this one.i guess you helped me scare it into working. Thanks for sharing this.

Finally, after 5 videos of useless information, this is the one that actually helped me fix my ice maker

Excellent video! Thank you for educating me on the freezer. They didn’t know it needed to be at 15° to make ice cubes, so I checked my freezer and it’s at 18°. So once again thank you Chris., Great video.!

Thank thank thank you are the only video that I have found on YouTube and I went through many a whole lot, and you are the only video ithat tells us to turn the top small cam wheel counter clockwise, into service mode! And you sir, are an angel.... thank you so much!

SIMPLE AND EASY FIX! Thanks a million, Chris! I watched your video and must've had #2, a blocked or frozen flow tube (freezer was set to 7/7; coldest setting)? I let freezer thaw for just over a half hour with the freezer door open; Ice cube blessings were in the works: the cog then turned and did a full rotation (versus stuck and grinding noise), something clicked, old cubes were spit out, the arm then raised and water turned on and off to fill the "tray." Hallelujah and thank you!! God bless you for having taken the time to share your knowledge with the world. Grateful in WY, ff
PS I now have freezer set to average coolness.

Genius! Simple cycle and adjust water pressure. Now we have a working ice maker! 👍👍

Good teacher. Can't pay a higher compliment

[fmmustang]

Chris, thanks for this. Was exactly on point. You're a gifted teacher. Clear and to the point.

[joeburttschell]

What make was this ice maker ? Yoyr video is to the point. Thanks for taking the time fore others.🙏

[sebouharakelian]

I loved your video, sir - thank you! your articulation and cadence is welcomed to help folks follow along...

Just fixed my ice maker thanks for the video. Saved my some cash and made my wife 😊

This is a rock solid tutorial and the way this man speaks is fully understandable and it absorbs well.
I did flood my freezer and shocked myself but we will see if we have ice cubes in a couple of hours.



If you don't want to shock yourself, then unplug the freezer. If you want a tickle, at least keep 1 hand in your pocket.
If you don't want to flood your freezer, do not adjust water pressure as your first order of measure. Water pressure also means "Water Level". turning that up will cause the ice maker to over flow. Ask me how I know.

Thanks. This was the closest to my Sears/Kenmore model. The fridge is almost 20 years old, so there's that, too.

[johnmontana]

Great video. Excellent instruction and presentation. I think my freezer is not cold enough.

[nancyjroy]

This was soooo helpful. I had the temperature set too warm. So happy I didn't pay a repair man!!

[conradsutton]

After watching over a dozen troubleshooting videos, yours is the first one that covered the mechanics of the icemaker and the door switch. I had already replaced the inlet pumps and the icemaker, with no luck. After watching your video, I found it was simply a bad door switch. Thanks Chris!
