Kenmore Refrigerator Model 106.44323400 ice maker is not working. How to repair or troubleshoot?
Thank you.
AnswerHi Bruno,
First check to see if the tube that feeds water into the icemaker is clogged. If the line is clogged unclog it and replace the water valve.
If the line isn’t clogged check the optics per instructions on this page
Whirlpool icemaker repairIf the optics check ok remove the icemaker by removing the cover on the back right hand side and pulling the icemaker straight out. Disconnect the power from the refrigerator. Then pull the front cover off the icemaker, once done you should see test holes marked with letters. Make a jumper wire using a short piece of insulated wire skinned on both ends. Then place one end in the hole marked H and the other in the hole marked T. Then place the icemaker back into the freezer with the jumper still in place, close the door and reconnect power to the refrigerator.
Once done the icemaker should cycle and run water.
If it cycles but doesn’t run water replace the water valve. Click picture to order.

If it doesn’t cycle replace the motor/modular. Click picture to order.

If it cycles and runs water but will not cycle again replace the whole icemaker. Click picture to order.

Thank you,
