Hi, My icemaker is working fine except it is overfilling. A ice formation forms from the maker to the ice tray and clumps many cubes together. I purchased and installed a WPL 67005154 water inlet valve from ApplianceParts Pros and it seems to have slowed the problem significantly but not eliminated it. Is there anything else that can cause this problem or did I get a defective valve?

thanx

One thing I always check is that the refrigerator is level ... If the ice maker fills more on one side than the other it will over flow.

Gabe

thanx for the input. The frig is deal level, right on the bubble, front to back and side to side. I have looked at the icemaker itself its flush down on the mounting screws. But the water does drip off the front of the icemaker. The cubes are also all the same size.
