Based on my experience and this forum, the rate of success for ice makers repair is less than 40%.

It is very possible you will spend a lot of money buying parts and finally end up buying a new ice maker.

If you would like, we can proceed with the troubleshooting for the ice maker, trying to fix it. It's up to you.

The ice maker could not get water. I replaced the water valve and checked to to make sure water was getting to the inlet at the back of the refrigerator it was.

Hi Pete,

The cause of the problem could be a bad motor or a bad ejector.

I would recommend to replace the whole ice maker.

- The part number for the ice maker is AP2984633

Hi Jmorgando,

Check all connections. Make sure the water feeding tube into the ice maker is open.

Hey gene,
My whirlpool icemaker quit working. I have replaced my water inlet valve and tested it at the module. Doing this i got water into the icemaker but it wont do it by itself.
Any suggestions?

So the icemaker tells the water valve when to bring water up to it?
