Not only did we miss out on the ice storm, we are now missing out on ice cubes. For the second time in the 7 year life span of our refrigerator the ice make has quit working. The first time, about 3 years ago, it was the valve that controls the water to the ice maker. You couldn’t just buy the valve you had to buy the whole ice maker kit. When it broke the other day I figured it was the valve again. I still had the old broken one, so I took it to work to see if I could make it work again. Sure enough I took it all apart, cleaned it and it worked. So I put it on the fridge when I got home yesterday and guess what – no ice. Must not be the valve. Up into the attic I went and dragged down the box with the rest of the kit. Tonight I replaced the ice maker unit itself with the new one – so far no ice. Wiring harness? either that or some thing in the refrigerator itself, because one end of the harness hooks into the back of the fridge….
I’m going to hate to have to go to ice cube trays.
