Ice dispenser motor not working since power outage. I do have power at the micro switch and it has continuity but no power on the RD/WH BR/WH wires at the dispenser motor. Emitter and receiver board seams to be working as I get a steady light when flap is closed. Idea where to check next?
Thank You

There is an auger motor in the door. It's possibly frozen or just bad. New motors come with a rubber shield that slips around metal shaft to prevent moisture from entering top of motor. Also. If you're testing the motor harness with the door open and the switch open, you won't get power to the motor. Side by sides typically run dispenser power through the door switch.

Hope this helps.

AP4434793 should be the part# you'll want.
