ken311, Did you do this test? If you did, what was the result? Gene.

Sir, the light sw works (on/off of light). Can I assume it is ok? If I ohm it out...it will show good because it works the light correctly now. Could this problem be tied into my frig side of no lights plus no illumination of the control panel? Should I be looking at the main control box lower aft by the compressor?

Where can I get the manual that discusses how to perform the dianostics and can it be retrieved online?

Assuming the ice maker "on-off" switch is "on", unplug the ice maker and check for 120V between the black wire and the white wire while the light switch on the left side and the flapper (on the left side) are depressed. If there is no 120V and there is nothing wrong with the optics then the problem is a bad light switch. - The part number for the light switch is AP3108668 Gene. P.S. There is a thermostat inside the ice maker and it has to cool down before the ice maker start to work. Normally it takes a few hours.

the repairman ops checked my icemaker and it is good. The optics diagnotics past test. I unplugged the frig, and installed theicemaker. After 30 mins...still nothing....icemaker did not advance and no water. There is no AC volts across L-N. What now?

All i see is the water hose going through the bottom hinge. The wire harness is at the top hinge. All dispenser swithes work ok (front of freeer door).
The black/white striped wire that is power to the icemaker connector (i believe) goes up through the bottom, aft of the frig....and power is there. Where/how do I check for volts in the wire connector in the freezer (with the ice maker un-installed)?

ken311,
Check the wire harness by the bottom freezer door hinge.

My ice maker is inop. I did a full optics diagnostic for 2002 design boards and all checked IAW the proceedure. I am concrened that I do NOT have pwer (Volts) at the icemaker. Where/how do I check the power at on the ice maker connector/frig freezer side? I have volts on the Black wire in back if the frig at the connector...but i don't know if it is at the connect in the freezer. With the icemaker installed, there is no Volts across L-N. I ohmed L to the ice recepticle black wire with .5 ohms. So, the thermal is not blown, correct?
