Hi - Is the wire signal arm in a stuck position or has any ice cubes stuck? If so, try turning it off and remove any ice cubes stuck to the wire signal arm or body of the ice maker and wait approximately 8 hrs. Should these suggestions prove to be ineffective and ice maker continues to freezer up, I recommend contacting a professional to properly diagnose and repair the unit.

SOURCE: Frigidaire plhs267zab5 ice maker won't switch crush to cube

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: 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

SOURCE: Ice Maker frost and freeze where ice drops into refrigerator door

You need a service guy to look at it. It could be water leaking or a simple case that the flap isnt sealing and the ice melts and then freezes the flap open

SOURCE: ice maker dispenses cruched ice in cube ice mode

You have a solenoid switch which switches the dispenser back and forth from crushed to cube. It could be stuck or not working or the parts connecting it could be disconnected or broken. You will have to observe to see if any parts are moving and if any noise is coming from the solenoid.
With your model number I can find a diagram which may help.

Frigidaire gallery ice maker will maker ice for about 1.5 weeks then stop

Check your filter. When filters get old they can restrict the water enough to cause issues. The cubes start to get smaller and from time to time the ice maker will freeze up.

Frigidaire FGHN2844LP ice freezing together. Replaced filter. Twenty hours later, ice maker not working, freezer warm, refrigerator temp. steady 40.

Hello Pat Havard,

I was pulling your owners manual to TRY to determine what could be done to block your freezer door or ice chute open during the filter changing process...

Today the ambient air temperature was at least 90 - 100°F
(degrees Fahrenheit)... To maintain 40°F your refrigerator
has to be working...

You need to look at your FREEZER side...
Your food, a pizza box... ice tray...
SOMETHING... in your immediate WORK area
is blocking vents... or proper closure...

Look at the door switch... make sure your light is OFF

My best guess... FILTER FIASCO induced.

The icemaker won't run unless you can freeze cubes...

ICE DISPENSER DOES NOT WORK. DOES NOT TURN, MAKES NO SOUND. CLEARLY NOT JAMMED OR FROZEN. The refrigerator is a Frigidaire Side-by-Side Model No. FRS6R5ESBL.

I'm looking to see if yousr is electronic and the part number for the ice maker and dual water control valve. I would like you to fill the ice maker tray with tap water and let freeze. If it dumps after freezing then the water control valve is the problem. If the ice just sits in the ice maker then the problem is the ice maker. BRB, Sea Breeze

Frigidaire refrigerator, ice maker

If the ice maker is doing the normal cycle and when calls for water doesn't get any,probably the fill tube to the ice maker is clogh with ice because the dual valve (solenoid) is leaking and this water freezes up clogging the fill tube , or the solenoid doesn't work ,in both cases it has to be replaced(it's located in the back of the refrigerator attached to the water supply line).

WATER NOT GOING IN ICE MAKER

Check if the filling tube to the ice maker is clogh with ice that means the dual valve that opens when the ice maker calls for water is leaking and this water freezes up and wont let any into the ice maker.

Water supply tube keeps freezing off water supply.

its hard to tell but most likely the valve is not closing all the way. but it could be the ice maker calling for too much.... www.whirlpoolpartssurplus.com

Ice maker

ice tube for ice maker keeps clogging with ice . I repeatedly remove and clear it only to find it freezing again. This only happens when the ice maker is turned off for a couple of days.
