You are welcome David. I'm glad it's up and running.

This part has been redesigned by GE a few times since they start to make such refrigerators. Hopefully the last one will last longer.

Gene.

I have a GE Side by Side with a model number of TFX27PP. The ice maker makes ice but does not dispense it. The solenoid that activates the flapper in the door does not work and I hear what sounds like another solenoid in the ice making area trying to work. The forked device that spins the corkscrew does not turn either.

Other than throwing the refigerator out and starting over, where should I start to look to find its problems? Thanks.

Remove the ice bucket, ice maker and motor cover.

Remove the wires from the auger motor. Tape in the door light switch. Check for 120 VAC between those wires while the ice dispenser calls for the ice. Remove the wires from the solenoid (#378 on the diagram) and perform the same voltage test.

Post the results.
