I have to keep removing the inlet tube at the top of freezer and let it melt the blockage and then the ice maker will function until the bin is full and it does not run for a day or two and then it freezes up again. Does anyone know if the inlet tube which has wires to it has a "heater" in it or are the wires for a sensor?

Hello. This model has no fill tube heater as you can see on the diagram I'm attaching. The issue is probably the water inlet valve [AP4298444]. Hope this was useful information for you!

If your talking about the four wire harness,(white, red, tan, and green) it powers the icemaker and water valve. If you could send a picture as an attachment I could better help you.

No I am talking about the white and black wires that are connected to the inlet tube. I acess the inlet tube from the top of the ref. Originally Posted by: Spb4444 Jerry,

I must apologize. I've been looking up a generic model number since you model listed wasn't complete. There are about 25 or 30 model numbers that start as your listed number starts. I did find a model with a fill tube heater [AP3040826]. I'm not sure this is exact for your model. If I had your complete number I could get the exact part number. I'm sorry if this an inconvenience.

Hello. I found the part number for the ice maker fill tube heater [AP5330657]. The original number was [AP3180767] but I'm not sure it is still available. You had come up with the correct part number. I apologize for the inconvenience. Feel free to contact us if we can assist further.

The wires are for a fill tube heater. The heater was an add on after manufacture by the manufacturer. Have a great day!
