Sorry, I am going to be replacing the Emitter/Receiver kit.
When it first quit working the fingers on the ejector were sticking straight up. It had locked up in mid-harvest cycle. I took out the ice maker and cleaned out the ice, took out the Emitter and Receiver and cleaned off the lamp and lens. Put everything back together and it started working. Went well for two cycles then quit again. Now I'm just getting the two flashes repeating and no 120 to the ice maker harness. Going by what I've been able to figure out from your recommendations the first step will be to replace the kit. Can you tell me what shorting M&N does, if anything. I'm making notes in the manual for next time.
Thanks again.

I am so confused. My KSCS25inss00 is reading 45Vac across L&N. When i close my emitter flapper the light still blinks 2x per second and when i jump the water test nothing happens... I recently put a new water solenoid in and tested all the lines and had water working in from both sides but nothing in the freezer. There is no ice and i need to get this thing working.. Please help???

So i replaced the optics, and i retested and the LED is working when i close the flapper and now im only reading 85Vac. When i short the leads to get water out there is nothing. Cant even here the solenoid engage.
I think im going to replace the whole ice maker now. I already did the optics and the water solenoids.

Gene,
My IM makes plenty of ice and the water dispenses, but it will not dispense ice thru the door. The flapper door opens, but the auger motor does not turn.
The light flashes twice with the side flap released and is solid red when I manually depress the flap.
Where would you recommend I start troubleshooting?
Thanks!

Does the compressor run?
Do the fans inside the freezer and on the back of the fridge run?
The model number you posted is incomplete. Verify and repost it please.
Gene.

GC3SHEXNS00
It sounds normal. fans are running, lights are on, everything as expected. We recently had a power surge which popped the majority of our breakers. This is likely what caused the issue.
