I can not get my ice maker to work. I am getting water to the front door but none to the ice maker. I checked the water line going to the ice maker it's self and there is no water in it at all. I checked to see if any of the lines were frozen or kinked, all the lines are clear. The ice maker it's self will cycle , but there is no water to make the ice with. I bought a new water inlet valve kit (part No# AP3160649 (4389177) from your company. I put the new valve kit on and I am still having the same problem. I did get better water pressure from the door but none to the ice maker. I also changed the water filiter and this had no effect other than having cleaner water. Do you have any ideas on what might be the problem and if you do know what the problem is can you give me the part NO#'s so that I can order them.

Mike,

Swap the wires between the solenoids on the water valve. If the terminals have different size, you have to carefully use some wires to connect them. Push the water dispenser release for a few seconds and check if there is water in the ice maker. If there is water, replace the ice maker.
