Refrigerator & Freezer Repair

my ice maker works fine sometimes for days then it wont dump ice so i use a hair dryer on the ice tray are for a couple minutes and it dumps out..it is a whirlpool side by side

Sounds like the mold heater (under the ice maker) is malfunctioning. The solution is to replace the ice maker.

Derek,

The best solution in such situation is to replace the ice maker. If you need the correct part number, post the complete model number of the refrigerator.
